The Power Rule of Exponents
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
The power rule of exponents states that raising a power to a power multiplies the exponents: (aᵐ)ⁿ = aᵐⁿ.
Show
(3²)³ means 3² taken three times — six factors of 3 in all — so it equals 3⁶ = 729.
Watch for
A power of a power multiplies; a product of powers adds.
