As in you don't understand the rule or the example or both?

I just don't understand it. I think another example would help

Think of x = 2. Then x^2 = 2^2 Then x^3 = 2^3. Basically for two or more equal values, if you raise that value to a power of n, then each of those values raised to n-power will be equal.

ok so since a=b right, (based on the definition given in your photo), a and b are essentially the same. So if you have to same numbers to the same powers, the answer is the same. E.g.Let a be 2. Since a =b, b is also 2. so a^n=b^n Since a=b=2, 2^n=2^n can? :D
