Simplifying Powers

In this short math video we will be simplifying powers to answer a standardized math test question. We will recognize that we are presented with a power multiplied by a power. I will introduce and review how to used the Product of Powers Property. We will identify that the powers have the same bases. We will then understand that we will add the exponents since the powers are being multiplied and have the same base. We will rewrite the product as one power and identify the correct solution. An exemplar solution is modeled and explained
