Help Please? I will fan YOU and Medal YOU! So PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!
List three different ways to write 5^11 as the product of two powers. Explain why all three of your expressions are equal to 5^11
you know rule of exponents
\[A ^{m} \times A ^{n} = A ^{(m + n )}\]
Yes!
now you have ( m + n ) = 11. Choose 2 nos. that will give you 11 when added.
you have to express \[5^{11} = 5^{m} \times 5^{n}\]
so choose different combinations for m and n which will give you m + n = 11 and write your answers and state the above rule as your reason
So I need to write different #'s that = 11 ? ? ? ? ?
two numbers that will be equal to 11 when added. Then use that two numbers to write it as 5^m times 5^ n
For example 3 + 8 = 11 right 5^ 11 = 5^3 x 5^8
So I need to make 3 ways right? @rajee_sam
yes
and for your reason you write the product rule
Like this @rajee_sam 6 + 5 = 11 5^ 11 = 5^6 x 5^5
exactly
Ok. Just to make sure can u give me 1 example for the reason please so i could understand please !!!
You see the rule I wrote on top with all stylish letters in block use that. A^m x A^n = A ^ (m + n)
for all of them this is the reason
So I use the reason for all of them? A^m x A^n = A ^ (m + n)
yes
Ok. Thx so much for your great examples! I really do understand thx again !!! :) @rajee_sam
