Evaluating Powers Exponent 5 2 Base
This means 2∙2∙2∙2∙2
Solve by doing the multiplication Power 5 2 = 2∙2∙2∙2∙2 = 32
1 Any number to the first power is equal to that number 1 5 = 5 12 = 12 347 = 347 1
0 Any number to the zero power, except zero is equal to one. 0 6 = 1 720 = 1 100,000 = 1 0
You can also express whole numbers as Powers Write each number using an exponent and the given base. 25, base 5 25 = 5 ∙ 5 = 5 2
Let’s practice together with a word problem. The cells of the bacteria E. coli can double every 20 minutes. If you begin with a single cell, how many cells can there be after four hours?
4 hours = 60 60 60 60 How many 20 are in each 60? 12 The bacteria doubles 12 times. 2 = 4096 12
How about this one. Maria had triplets. Each of her children had triplets. If the pattern occurred for two more years how many great, great, grandchildren would Maria have?

81 64 16 729 Give two ways to represent these numbers with exponents.
Until next time, make your own work of art showing the relationships of exponents to bases and powers! And think about this question…
Would you rather be givenone million dollars in one month or one penny doubled everyday for one month?The answer may surprise you!
