Documentation for Technical Scaling Factors

You are assisting in the creation of a 'Math Fundamentals' training guide for new technical interns at your company. In the section on exponents, you need to explain how to simplify a 'power to a power' expression, such as (am)n(a^m)^n. State the Power Property for Exponents and describe the mathematical reasoning for why the shortcut involves multiplying the exponents, based on the definition of exponents. To make your explanation clear for the interns, use the specific example (x5)2(x^5)^2 to illustrate the steps.
