Math Problem Statement

Simplify using one positive exponent: 7^6 * 7^1

Solution

The expression provided is:

76717^6 \cdot 7^1

To simplify this using one positive exponent, we apply the property of exponents that states:

aman=am+na^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}

Here, a=7a = 7, m=6m = 6, and n=1n = 1. Adding the exponents:

7671=76+1=777^6 \cdot 7^1 = 7^{6+1} = 7^7

Thus, the simplified expression is:

777^7
