Simplify the expression. Write your answer as a power.

1) z c/dot z^12

1 answer

To simplify the expression \( z \cdot z^{12} \), you can use the property of exponents that states \( a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n} \).

Here, you have:

\[ z^1 \cdot z^{12} = z^{1+12} = z^{13} \]

Thus, the simplified expression is:

\[ z^{13} \]
