Exponent Rules Variable

Simplify the expression.
x⁴ (x¹²)

• x³

• x⁴⁸

• x¹⁶

• x⁸

Evaluate using the quotient rule: 

• a⁸b¹³

• a²b⁷

• a¹⁵b³⁰

The product rule says that when you are multiplying two exponents with the same base, you keep the base and ________ the exponents

• Add

• Subtract

• Multiply

• Divide

The quotient rule says that when you are dividing two exponents with the same base, you keep the base and __________ the exponents.

• Add

• Subract

• Multiply

• Divide

If a number or variable does not have an exponent, we can assume the exponent is:

• 0

• 1

• y¹⁵
• y⁵⁰
• y²
• y⁵

According to exponent rules, when we multiply the same base we _______ the exponents.

• Multiply

• Add

• Divide

• Subtract

Simplify (c⁵)(c³)(c³)

• c⁴⁵

• 3c¹¹

• c¹¹

• 3c⁴⁵

Simplify:
(x³y²)(xy⁴)

• x³y⁸

• x⁴y⁶

• x³y⁶

• x⁴y⁸

Quotient Rule states: keep the base the same and do this to the exponents.

• multiply

• add

• subtract

• divide
