Algebra.Com's Answer #183063 by richwmiller(17219) You can put this solution on YOUR website! If I am reading the problem correctly, you want to multiply 16x5 and 28x^6 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "16x^5 *28x^6 \n" ); document.write( "16*28*x^5*x^6\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "think about it x^2*x^3=32 \n" ); document.write( "x^1=x \n" ); document.write( "x^2=x*x \n" ); document.write( "x^3=x*x*x\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "we want x^2*x^3=x*x * x*x*x= x^5 \n" ); document.write( "let's test that with 2 \n" ); document.write( "2^2=4 \n" ); document.write( "2^3=8 \n" ); document.write( "4*8=32 \n" ); document.write( "2^4=14 \n" ); document.write( "2^5=32 \n" ); document.write( "32=2^5\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so when we multiply x's we add the exponents \n" ); document.write( "so \n" ); document.write( "x^5*x^6=x^11 \n" ); document.write( "16*28*x^11\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
