Q. Simplify. Assume all variables are positive.\newlinet52t32t^{\frac{5}{2}} \cdot t^{\frac{3}{2}}\newlineWrite your answer in the form AA or AB\frac{A}{B}, where AA and BB are constants or variable expressions that have no variables in common. All exponents in your answer should be positive.\newline______
  1. Identify Equation: Identify the equation and apply the product of powers property.\newlineThe product of powers property states that when you multiply two exponents with the same base, you add the exponents: am×an=am+na^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}.\newlinet52×t32=t(52+32)t^{\frac{5}{2}} \times t^{\frac{3}{2}} = t^{\left(\frac{5}{2} + \frac{3}{2}\right)}
  2. Apply Product of Powers: Add the exponents.\newline(52)+(32)=82(\frac{5}{2}) + (\frac{3}{2}) = \frac{8}{2}
  3. Add Exponents: Simplify the exponent. 82=4\frac{8}{2} = 4
  4. Simplify Exponent: Write the final answer with the simplified exponent.\newlinet82=t4t^{\frac{8}{2}} = t^4
