Write the indicated product as an exponential expression with 3 as the base and 6 as the exponent. Add and Subtract rank equally and go left to right So do it this way. Simplify multiplication expressions with a positive exponent.
Second evaluate the exponents.
In the above problem you must enclose the 3 in parentheses to show that 3 is the number that is used as a factor six times. Only the 3 will be the base unless you use parentheses to indicate otherwise. 1 1 2 2. When you see Parenthesis that means multiply the exponents When dividing you would SUBTRACT the exponents and when multiplying you would ADD the exponents.
