1 answer

To simplify the expression \( 13^7 \times 13^{19} \), you can use the exponent rule which states that when you multiply two exponents with the same base, you add the exponents:

\[ a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n} \]

Applying this to the expression:

\[ 13^7 \times 13^{19} = 13^{7+19} = 13^{26} \]

So, the simplified expression is \( 13^{26} \).

The correct response is:

13 to the 26th power.
