t^9 x t^7 = t^16
Example
t ² x t ³ = (t x t) x (t x t x t) = t^5
ie when you muliply you ADD the indices.

Using the law of indices, a^m(a^n) = a^(m + n)......

t^9 x t^7
= t^(9 + 7)
= t^16

t^9 x t^7 = t^16

This works for anything. If you multiply any like terms, the result will be that term to the power of the sum of the powers. A lot easier to understand if it is written like this:

a^x * a^y = a^(x+y)

Also:

a^x / a^y = a^(x-y)

(a^x)^y = a^xy

(a/b)^x = a^x / b^x

a^(-x) = 1 / a^x

These are known as the "index laws".

t^9 means txtxtxtxtxtxtxtxt
t^7 means txtxtxtxtxtxt
t^9 x t^7 means txtxtxtxtxtxtxtxtxtxtxtxtxtxt
.........................xt =t^16

Whenever you multiply powers with identical bases
just add the exponents

t^9 x t^7 >>>Because the base is same just add the index when they are multiplication operation.
= t^(9+7)
= t^16

REMEMBER :
a^m x a^n >>>Multiplication
= a^(m+n) >>>Add index

a^m / a^n >>>Division
= a^(m-n) >>>Minus index
