When multiplying exponents, we just add the exponents while keeping the base the same.

When multplying exponents, we need to make sure we have the same base.

Since we do, all we have to do is add the exponents.

The answer is .

When multiplying expressions with the same variable, combine terms by adding the exponents, while leaving the variable unchanged. For this problem, we do that by adding 2+1, to get a new exponent of 3:

When multplying exponents, we need to make sure we have the same base.

Since we do, all we have to do is add the exponents.

The answer is .

When multiplying with exponents, you must add the exponents.

Therefore, multiply the coefficients on the x terms and add the exponents

When multiplying exponents with different bases but the same exponent, you multiply the bases and keep the exponents the same.

When multiplying expressions with the same variable, combine terms by adding the exponents, while leaving the variable unchanged. For this problem, we do that by adding 3+1, to get a new exponent of 4:

Simplifying the equation gives b6/(b3+x) = b5.

In order to satisfy this case, x must be equal to –2.

When multplying exponents, we need to make sure we have the same base.

Since we do, all we have to do is add the exponents.

The answer is .

Although they have different bases, we know that .

Therefore

.

Remember to apply the power rule of exponents.

Finally,

.
