Q. Simplify. Assume all variables are positive.\newlines117s127s^{\frac{11}{7}} \cdot s^{\frac{12}{7}}\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 and Property: Identify the equation and apply the property of exponents for multiplication.\newlineWhen multiplying two exponents with the same base, we add the exponents: am×an=am+na^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}.\newlines117×s127=s117+127s^{\frac{11}{7}} \times s^{\frac{12}{7}} = s^{\frac{11}{7} + \frac{12}{7}}.
  2. Add Exponents: Add the exponents.\newline117+127=11+127=237\frac{11}{7} + \frac{12}{7} = \frac{11 + 12}{7} = \frac{23}{7}.\newlineSo, s117s127=s237s^{\frac{11}{7}} \cdot s^{\frac{12}{7}} = s^{\frac{23}{7}}.
  3. Final Answer Format: Write the final 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.\newlineThe final answer is s237s^{\frac{23}{7}}, which is already in the correct form.
