Answer:
[tex](-13) * (-13) = (-13)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]35 * 35 = 35^{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex](-13) * (-13)[/tex]
Required
Express as an exponential notation
[tex](-13) * (-13)[/tex]
Apply the following law of indices
[tex]x^a * x^b = x^{a+b}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex](-13) * (-13) = (-13)^{1+1}[/tex]
[tex](-13) * (-13) = (-13)^{2}[/tex]
The second complete is incomplete; However, I'll assume it is: 35 times 35
[tex]35 * 35[/tex]
Using the same law applied in (1) above:
[tex]35 * 35 = 35^{1+1}[/tex]
[tex]35 * 35 = 35^{2}[/tex]
