Nicholas says that (2^6)(2^6) equals 2^12, which also equals 4^6. is this true? explain

When you multiply two numbers in exponential notation whose bases are the same, you just keep the base the same and add the exponents.

In this case, you have (2^6) * (2^6) = 2^(6 + 6) = 2^12.

We can change the base of 4^6 into 2:

(2^2)^6

Is this the same as 2^12? Well, when we have an expression like that above, we multiply the exponents together, so we get: (2^2)^6 = 2^12.

Therefore, Nicholas is correct.

So, yes, it's true.
