Question

Simplify  $b^{-3}\cdot b^7$ assuming that no variable equal to 0 .

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The simplified value of expression is $b^4$ .

Step 1. Write down the given expression.

The given expressiomn to simplify is $b^{-3}\cdot b^7$ .

Step 2. Simplify the given expression.

Simplifying $b^{-3}\cdot b^7$  gives,

$\begin{array}{c}{b}^{-3}\cdot b^7={\left(b\right)}^{-3}{\left(b\right)}^7\\ ={\left(b\right)}^{-3+7}\\ =b^4\end{array}$

Step 3. Conclusion.

The simplified value of expression is $b^4$ .
