How can I simplify the following problem:
(-3m‸7)(-7m‸2)
Thank you!
First you multiply the numerical coefficient which is -3 and -7. Then you multiply the variables which is m^7 and m^2. In order to multiply same variables just add the exponent, if different variables just combine them and copy the exponents. So (-3m‸7)(-7m‸2) is equal to, 21m^9
