Exercise 18 Page 3

To multiply exponential numbers with the same base but different exponents, we add the exponents and keep the base the same.

32m^3

To multiply exponential numbers with the same base but different exponents, we add the exponents and keep the base the same. a^m* a^n= a^(m+ n) Keeping this in mind, let's simplify the given expression.

8m(4m^2)

CommutativePropMult

Commutative Property of Multiplication

(8 * 4)(m * m^2)

Multiply

32(m * m^2)

a*a^m=a^(1+m)
