Question

multiply and simplify exponential notation with positive exponents (6v)5 * (6v)7

Answer 1

multiply and simplify exponential notation with positive exponents (6v)5 * (6v)7
is the anse 1260v2

Answer 2

Am I right in assuming that the equation should look like\[(6v)^5*(6v)^7\]?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

If you've got exponents, you simply add them. I'll prove to you why this is the case with your question:
\[(6v)^5=6v*6v*6v*6v*6v\]\[(6v)^7=6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v\]So if you multiply these together, you simply get 6v multiplied by itself 12 times, or (6v)^12

Answer 5

Because 5+7, and if you define exponents to be a notation showing how much something is MULTIPLIED, then if you multiply more of the same to a particular term you simply have to add the exponents. I.e.,\[a^1*a^1=a^2=a*a\]

Answer 6

Sorry, I meant to say 5+7=12

Answer 7

Also, if you want to denote an exponent you use a ^ sign, followed by the exponent itself (SHIFT + 6 on your keyboard, probably).

Answer 8

tangent so the answer would be 12

Answer 9

(6v)^12. I can't write it with the equation function on this forum because it only lets me put 1 item in the exponent place, but yes, 6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v*6v, or (6v)^12

Answer 10

so i can write the answer (6v)^12 keeping the 6v in parenthese

Answer 11

Yes. If you wrote 6v^12, that would mean 6*(v)^12, certainly not what you had at the beginning.

Answer 12

thanks

Answer 13

No problem, Jazi. Stop by another time.

Answer 14

divide and wite using nonnegative exponents
the quotient is--?
30x^4y^2 / 5x^7y^2 =

Answer 15

checking my answer plse
divide and wite using nonnegative exponents
the quotient is--?
30x^4y^2 / 5x^7y^2 = the quotient is 6/x^3 is this correct
