What is the answer to x(yxz)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given expression: x (xyz)

Laws of exponents:  

1. Product with same bases:

      am×an=am+n

2 Quotient with same bases:

    aman=am-n

3. Product to a power: According to this law, if there are different bases which  are in multiplication, but their power are same. Then

     am×bm=(ab)m

4.Power raised to a power: 

   (am)n=am×n

5. Quotient to a power: According to this law, if there are different bases which are in division and they raised to same power. Then,

  ambm=abm

6. Zero Power: If any integer have power raised to zero, then the value its value is 1.

   (a)0=1(-4)0=1 (8)0=1
