Question

13^8 × 13^-6
13^14
2^13
14^13
13^2

Answer 1

when you multiply exponential expressions with the same base, you keep that same base and the new exponent is the result of adding the exponents

Answer 2

so that rule is

\[\Large a^b*a^c = a^{b+c}\]

Answer 3

the base of 'a' stays the same

you add the exponents b and c

Answer 4

example:

\[\Large 2^3*2^5 = 2^{3+5}\]
