To calculate: The value of the expression
The required is
Given information:
The expression
Calculation:
Let’s solve this problem in steps.
Step 1: Write the problem in two parts
Take the expression
Step 2: Check what are the coefficients, exponents and base.
An exponent is a number or letter written above and to the right of a mathematical expression called the base.
Coefficient is a number multiplied by a variable.
A base is a number which gets multiplied when using an exponent.
Here, base is
Here, exponents are different in both parts for one part it is -3 and for second part it is 5.
Here coefficient for first part is 2 and for second part it is 6.
Step 3:
Check which property of exponents goes with the given question
The property of product of power states that when multiplying two powers with the same base, add the exponents as follow while calculating:
Step 4:
Multiply the coefficients together:
Hence, required value is
