HELLPPpPpPpPp its like not that hard but im having a mental block rn and i literally cant i know this isnt true but WHY pleasse explain why its wrong and show the work!!

The reason why it isnt true is because you cannot combine exponents that have different bases.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, with the problem shown below, it is

This cannot be multiplied.

To get , you would need 6^4*6^5

So basically, its like ths:

If two exponents have to same base, they can be added together. THis adds the exponents, but leaves the bases the same.

If two exponents have different bases, they cannot be added together. You would have to distrubute both the numbers exponents then multiply them together.

For instance, with , you would have to make it 243+16

This would equal 259.

As we can see, is over 10 million, much bigger than this.

I hope this makes sense and helps!

step-by-step explanation:

one day the were 5 ducks, and their king told them to multiply their kingdom. so each went their own seperate way and met 4 other ducks on their journey.

when the ducks returned to their kingdom, it was discovered that there were 5 groups of 5 ducks. when the kind counted the number of ducks in total (including the ones he sent out earlier) he counted 25.

therefore 5 times 5 is 25.

the end. : )
