Consider the following two statements:

Statement 1: 2^m x 3ⁿ = (2 + 3)^{m + n}, where m, n are positive integers.

Statement 2: If a is a rational number, and m, n are integers, then a^m.aⁿ = a^{m + n}

Which of the following is valid?

1. Both the Statements are true.

2. Both the Statements are false.

3. Statement 1 is true, and Statement 2 is false.

4. Statement 1 is false, and Statement 2 is true.
