Product rule of exponents

Product rule of exponents

Exponents are often use in algebra problems. So, it is utmost important that we are familiar with all of the exponent rules. It would be a nightmare if we need to multiply them one by one! By the product rule of exponents, we can add the exponents up when we want to multiply powers with the same base.
Basic concepts: Using exponents to describe numbers, Exponent rules, Order of operations with exponents,
Related concepts: Exponents: Product rule (ax)(ay)=a(x+y) (a^x)(a^y)=a^{(x+y)}, Exponents: Division rule axay=a(x−y){a^x \over a^y}=a^{(x-y)}, Exponents: Power rule (ax)y=a(x⋅y) (a^x)^y = a^{(x\cdot y)}, Exponents: Negative exponents,
