2. • What is an Exponents ?
Exponent otherwise known as
powers, are the mathematical
expressions that tell how many
times base should be multiplied by
itself.
5 3Base
Power
3. Exponential form is another
way to show exponents. For
example, how do you show 5
raised to 3 in exponential form
?
53
3
5X5X5 125= =
4. The zero power is basically
anything that’s raised to zero.
When any number, excluding 0, is
raised to 0 it become equivalent to
one. For example what is 5 raised
5 0 = 1
5. The first power basically means
anything raised to 1.when any
number raised to 1 it stays the
same. For example what is 5 raised
5 1= = 55
6. LET M= 2 AND N= 3
am / an = am - n
a2 / a3 = a2 - 3
am x an = am + n
a2 x a3 = a2 + 3
7. am x bm = (ab)m
a2 X b2 = (ab)2
am/bm = (a/b)m
a2/b2 = (a/b)2
a0 = 1
(am)n = amn
(a2)3 = a2X3
