a. Emma completed the problem correctly (6^2 x 6^5 = 6^(2+5) = 6^7, which matches her answer of 36^7 since 36 = 6^2).
b. Erin simplified the expression incorrectly by adding the exponents instead of multiplying them. The correct answer is 6^(2+5) = 6^7, not 6^10.
Eden simplified the expression incorrectly by only adding the exponents of 6 instead of multiplying them. The correct answer is 6^(2+5) = 6^7, not 6^2 x 6^5 = 6^7.
b. Erin simplified the expression incorrectly by adding the exponents instead of multiplying them. The correct answer is 6^(2+5) = 6^7, not 6^10.
Eden simplified the expression incorrectly by only adding the exponents of 6 instead of multiplying them. The correct answer is 6^(2+5) = 6^7, not 6^2 x 6^5 = 6^7.

The given expression is 6²·6⁵.
The given expression can be solved using the exponential law aⁿ×aˣ=aⁿ⁺ˣ.
Emma solved problem as 6²·6⁵=36⁷
Erin solved problem as 6²·6⁵=6¹⁰
Eden solved problem as 6²·6⁵=6⁷
Here, 6²·6⁵=6⁵⁺²=6⁷
Therefore, Eden as solved problem correctly. Using the exponential law we get answer as 6²·6⁵=6⁵⁺²=6⁷.

I'm sorry, but you have made a mistake in your solution. You stated that all three students used the formula aⁿ×aˣ=aⁿ⁺ˣ, which is incorrect. Only Emma used this formula to correctly solve the problem. Erin and Eden both made mistakes in their solutions.
Emma: 6²·6⁵ = 6^(2+5) = 6^7, which matches her answer of 36^7 since 36 = 6².
Erin: 6²·6⁵ = 6^(2+5) = 6^7, not 6¹⁰.
Eden: 6²·6⁵ = 6^(2+5) = 6^7, not 6⁷.
Therefore, the correct answer to part a of the question is Emma solved the problem correctly. And the answer to part b is Erin and Eden both added the exponents instead of multiplying them.
