What does the Zero Exponent Property say? And the Product of Powers Property?

v^9 c^2

Practice makes perfect

To simplify the given exponential expression, we will use the Zero and Product of Powers Properties. Zero Exponent Property a^0=1, for every nonzero numbera [0.8em] and integern Product of Powers Property a^m * a^n = a^(m * n) Let's try to simplify the given expression using these properties.
