simplify. express your answer using positive exponents. $5j^{8} \cdot 10j$

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply the coefficients

$5 \times 10 = 50$

Step2: Combine the variable terms

$j^8 \times j = j^{8+1} = j^9$

Step3: Combine results

Multiply the coefficient product and variable product.

Answer:

$50j^9$
