We are given the expression;
[tex]p^3\cdot p^2[/tex]To write this as an exponent we shall simolify as follows;
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Apply the rule;} \\ a^x\cdot a^y=a^{x+y} \end{gathered}[/tex]We now have;
[tex]\begin{gathered} p^3\cdot p^2 \\ =p^{3+2} \\ =p^5 \end{gathered}[/tex]To write this without exponents, would mean to multiply it all out in its actual form which is;
[tex]p\times p\times p\times p\times p[/tex]Note that
[tex]\begin{gathered} p^5 \\ is\text{ equivalent to } \\ p\times p\times p\times p\times p \end{gathered}[/tex]ANSWER:
[tex]p\times p\times p\times p\times p[/tex]
