Step-by-step explanation:

Product property

  • If the bases are the same, you don't multiple them. However, if they are the same, you do multiple for example : (2³ * 2¹ = 2⁴.when the bases are the same) (2³ * 3¹ =6⁴. When the bases are not the same
  • We add the index.

Quotient property

  • Same here, if the bases are the same, they stay the way they were
  • We subtract the index

Power property

  • Here we multiple the index because of the bracket for example : (9²)²= 9⁴

Negetive exponent property

  • When ever the index has a negative sign its convected to a fraction, for instance : 9¯² = 1 /9²
  • Note, when it turns to a fraction th index becomes positive
