GPT 3.5
The product rule of exponents states that when multiplying two exponential expressions with the same base, you keep the base and add the exponents.
So, to simplify 5^10 * 5^5, you would keep the base 5 and add the exponents 10 and 5:
5^10 * 5^5 = 5^(10+5) = 5^15
So, to simplify 5^10 * 5^5, you would keep the base 5 and add the exponents 10 and 5:
5^10 * 5^5 = 5^(10+5) = 5^15
