Simplify each exponential expression in Exercises 23–64. (x11)5(x^{11})^5

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the rule for simplifying expressions of the form \((a^m)^n\), which states that you multiply the exponents: \((a^m)^n = a^{m \times n}\).
Apply this rule to the given expression \((x^{11})^5\) by multiplying the exponents 11 and 5.
Write the expression with the new exponent: \(x^{11 \times 5}\).
Simplify the exponent multiplication to get \(x^{55}\).
Express the final simplified form as \(x^{55}\).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Laws of Exponents

The laws of exponents provide rules for simplifying expressions involving powers. One key rule is that when raising a power to another power, you multiply the exponents. For example, (x^a)^b = x^(a*b). Understanding these laws is essential for simplifying expressions like (x^11)^5.

Power of a Power Rule

The power of a power rule states that when an exponential expression is raised to another exponent, you multiply the exponents. This rule helps simplify expressions by reducing nested exponents into a single exponent, making calculations and further manipulations easier.
