Simplify t^7 × t^2: Exponent Multiplication Practice

Question

Reduce the following equation:

$t^7\times t^2=$

00:00 Simply

00:03 According to the laws of exponents, multiplication of powers with equal base (A)

00:06 equals the same base raised to the sum of the exponents (N+M)

00:09 We will use this formula in our exercise

00:12 We'll keep the base and add the exponents

00:15 And this is the solution to the question

$t^{7+2}$
