Chapter 4, Problem 35CR

To determine

To find the product $c^9\times 8c^2$

Answer to Problem 35CR

  $8c^{11}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Expression $c^9\times 8c^2$

Formula Used: Product rule with same base

Calculation:

The Product Rule with same base says that when the bases are same, the exponent powers are added. In the given expression, the base “c” is same. So, the powers of c will be added. The number 8 will stay as it is.

  $=c^9\times 8c^2$

On applying the rule, get-

  $=8\times c^{9+2}$

Hence,

  $=8c^{11}$

Conclusion-

  $=8c^{11}$
