How do you simplify #e^x*e^(-3x)*e^4#? Precalculus Exponential and Logistic Functions The Natural Base e 1 Answer LM Dec 26, 2016 #e^(-2x+4) or e^(4-2x)# Explanation: law of indices: #a^m * a^n = a^(m+n)# in the same way: #e^x * e^y = e^(x+y)#, since the base is the same. #therefore e^x * e^(-3x) * e^4 = e^(x+ -3x+4)# #=e^(-2x+4) or e^(4-2x)# Answer link Related questions What is base e?
