Q. Simplify. Assume all variables are positive.\newlinev127v117v^{\frac{12}{7}} \cdot v^{\frac{11}{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 and Apply Exponent Rule: Identify the equation and apply the exponent multiplication rule.\newlineWhen multiplying two exponents with the same base, we add the exponents: am×an=am+na^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}.\newlinev127×v117=v127+117v^{\frac{12}{7}} \times v^{\frac{11}{7}} = v^{\frac{12}{7} + \frac{11}{7}}.
  2. Add Exponents: Add the exponents.\newline127+117=12+117=237\frac{12}{7} + \frac{11}{7} = \frac{12 + 11}{7} = \frac{23}{7}.\newlineSo, v127×v117=v237v^{\frac{12}{7}} \times v^{\frac{11}{7}} = v^{\frac{23}{7}}.
  3. Write Final Answer: 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 v237v^{\frac{23}{7}}, which is already in the correct form.
