Question

simplificar.
$x^{2} \cdot x^{-5} \cdot x$
escribir su respuesta con un exponente

Explanation:

Step1: Recall exponent product rule

For same base $x$, $x^a \cdot x^b = x^{a+b}$. Note $x = x^1$.

Step2: Sum all exponents

$\text{Total exponent} = 2 + (-5) + 1$

Step3: Calculate the sum

$2 - 5 + 1 = -2$

Answer:

$x^{-2}$ (or $\frac{1}{x^2}$)
