Answer 2

\[2^2 * 2^3\]

\[2^2 = 2*2\]
\[2^3 = 2*2*2\]

the powers add when multiplied like that
for example x^4 * x^3 = x^(4+3) = x^7

so 2^2 * 2^3 = 2^(2+3) = 2^__

Answer 4

i dont get it

Answer 5

\[2^2\]is saying 2*2

\[2^3\] is saying 2*2*2

what is 2*2?
what is 2*2*2?

mmm
like x^2 = x times x
x^3 = x times x times x
so x^2 times x^3 = (x*x)*(x*x*x) = x^5

Answer 7

\[so 2^{3}\]
