What pattern do you see when multiplying two powers with the same base?

For example when two numbers are multiplied such that they have the same base a and the exponents are x and y, so the base is simply copied and the exponents are added. To illustrate:

a^x * a^y

a^(x + y)

blue marble is 15 times out of 50 = 15/50 reduces to 3/10

landing on tails is 24 out of 50 = 24/50 reduces to 12/25

to find the probability of both multiply together:

3/10 x 12/25 = 3 x 12 / 10 x 25 = 36/250

if you multiplied the numerator and denominator by 10 you get 360/2500.

the answer is 360/2500

y=mx+b

step-by-step explanation:

m is slope, b is y-intercept
