Algebra II › Simple Exponents
Simplify .
To solve this expression, remove the outer exponent and expand the terms.
By exponential rules, add all the powers when multiplying like terms.
The answer is:
Expand
When expanding exponents, we repeat the base by the exponential value.
Expand:
To expand the exponent, we multiply the base by whatever the exponent is.
Expand
To expand the exponent, we multiply the base by the power it is being raised to.
Expand:
When we expand exponents, we simply repeat the base by the exponential value.
Therefore:
Expand
When expanding exponents, we repeat the base by the exponential value.
Simplify:
A number raised by a power is multiplied by itself that number of times.
Rewrite the expression.
Simplify the terms.
The answer is:
Expand
To expand the exponent, we multiply the base by the power it is being raised to.
Expand:
To expand the exponent, we multiply the base by whatever the exponent is. Because there is a negative sign present, we need to apply the exponent first and then add the negative sign.
Expand:
When we expand exponents, we simply repeat the base by the exponential value.
Therefore:
