Can you help me simplify this?

Question

1)C^3 V^9 C^-1 C^0

Answer 1

The rule is that when you multiply powers of the same variable, you add the exponents.

 

So the result for C would be C² because adding the exponents would give 3 - 1 + 0 = 2.

 

There is only one term with V, so that stays unchanged.

 

So the result is C²V⁹
