Q. Simplify. Assume all variables are positive.\newlinev73v83v^{\frac{7}{3}} \cdot v^{\frac{8}{3}}\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. Combine powers of vv: Combine the powers of vv by adding the exponents.\newlineWhen multiplying powers with the same base, we add the exponents.\newlinev7/3×v8/3=v(7/3)+(8/3)v^{7/3} \times v^{8/3} = v^{(7/3) + (8/3)}
  2. Perform exponent addition: Perform the addition of the exponents.\newline(73)+(83)=(7+83)(\frac{7}{3}) + (\frac{8}{3}) = (\frac{7 + 8}{3})\newline=153= \frac{15}{3}
  3. Write result as single power: Write the result as a single power of vv.v153=v5v^{\frac{15}{3}} = v^5
