Answer:
Haley simplified correctly
Step-by-step explanation:
According to indices rule, if we have the same base and we are to multiply two numbers raised to exponent, we are to add the powers on the bases
So, it is expected that;
x^3 * x^2 = x*(3 + 2) = x^5
However, x^3 + x^2 stays the same (but of course can only be factorised)
So we can conclude that only Haley’s answer is correct
