Thanks CPhill for the chance of answering this!

as CPhill said , according to his examples i am going to tell you its answer Mari!

$$x*x*x*x*x=x^5$$ $$ANSWER$$ 

(as ther are 5 x's we are multiplying so we'll take the power of x as 5)

Hope this helps!

I'll give you a hint here:

x * x =  x2

x * x * x = x3  

That should help

x*x*x*X*X=x5

The easiest way to solve this is to count how many x's are there and then but the 5 as the power.

x=base 

5=power

$$\begin{array}{rclclcl}
x &=& x^1 &=& x^{(1)} &=& x^1\\
x*x &=& x^1*x^1 &=& x^{(1+1)} &=& x^2\\
x*x*x &=& x^1*x^1*x^1 &=& x^{(1+1+1)} &=& x^3\\
x*x*x*x &=& x^1*x^1*x^1*x^1 &=& x^{(1+1+1+1)} &=& x^4\\
x*x*x*x*x &=& x^1*x^1*x^1*x^1*x^1 &=& x^{(1+1+1+1+1)} &=& x^5
\end{array}$$
