Multiplying With The Same Base abx ac=ab+c Examples • 42x 46=42+6 42x 46=48 • 25x 23=25+3 25x 23=28 • 73x 76=73+6 73x 76=79
Power to a Power (ab)c= abxc Examples • (43)6=43x6 (43)6=418 • (92)5=92x5 (92)5=910 • (27)2=27x2 (27)2=214
Dividing with the Same Base ab/ac= ab-c Examples • 39/35=39-5 39/35=34 • 54/52=54-2 54/52=52 • 87/86=87-6 87/86=81
Zero Power a0=1 Examples • 40=1 • 70=1 • 30=1
Negative Exponents a-b=(1/a)b Examples • 9-4= (1/9)4 • 2-7=(1/2)7 • 5-2=(1/5)2
1.1 and 1.2 1.1 and 1.2 both help with the understanding of exponential equations. They are a great intro into the world of exponents.
