Question

when $6a^{2}b^{3} \bullet -3a^{6}b^{3}$ is multiplied, the product of the coefficients is $-18$.
complete
the exponent on $a$ when $a^{2}$ is multiplied by $a^{6}$ is

Explanation:

Step1: Recall exponent product rule

For $a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}$

Step2: Substitute given exponents

Here $m=2$, $n=6$, so $2+6=8$

Answer:

8
