Simplify the Expression: 8^a × 8^2 × 8^x Using Laws of Exponents

Question

Reduce the following equation:

$8^a\times8^2\times8^x=$

00:00 Simply

00:04 According to the laws of exponents, multiplying exponents with the same base (A)

00:07 equals the same base raised to the sum of the exponents (N+M)

00:11 We will use this formula in our exercise

00:15 We'll keep the base and add the exponents

00:24 And this is the solution to the question

$8^{a+2+x}$
