Exponents Rules - Examples, Exercises and Solutions

First, we recognize that 81 is a power of the number 3, which means that:

$3^4=81$We replace in the problem:

$\frac{81}{3^2}=\frac{3^4}{3^2}$Keep in mind that the numerator and denominator of the fraction have terms with the same base, therefore we use the property of powers to divide between terms with the same base:

$\frac{b^m}{b^n}=b^{m-n}$We apply it in the problem:

$\frac{3^4}{3^2}=3^{4-2}=3^2$$$Therefore, the correct answer is option b.

In order to solve the exercise, we use the negative exponent rule.

$a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}$

We apply the rule to the given exercise:

$19^{-2}=\frac{1}{19^2}$

We can then continue and calculate the exponent.

$\frac{1}{19^2}=\frac{1}{361}$

Let's keep in mind that the numerator and denominator of the fraction have terms with the same base, therefore we use the property of powers to divide between terms with the same base:

$\frac{b^m}{b^n}=b^{m-n}$We apply it in the problem:

$\frac{2^4}{2^3}=2^{4-3}=2^1$Remember that any number raised to the 1st power is equal to the number itself, meaning that:

$b^1=b$Therefore, in the problem we obtain:

$2^1=2$Therefore, the correct answer is option a.

Note that in the fraction and its denominator, there are terms with the same base, so we will use the law of exponents for division between terms with the same base:

$\frac{b^m}{b^n}=b^{m-n}$ Let's apply it to the problem:

$\frac{9^9}{9^3}=9^{9-3}=9^6$$$Therefore, the correct answer is b.

$(\frac{4^2}{7^4})^2=\frac{4^{2\times2}}{7^{4\times2}}=\frac{4^4}{7^8}$

To begin with, we must remind ourselves of the Negative Exponent rule:

$a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}$We apply it to the given expression :

$\frac{1}{12^3}=12^{-3}$Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

To solve $(4^3)^2$, we use the power of a power rule which states that $(a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}$.

Here, $a = 4$, $m = 3$, and $n = 2$.

So, we calculate $4^{3 \cdot 2}$,

which simplifies to $4^6$.

To solve the exercise we use the power property:$(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}$

We use the property with our exercise and solve:

$(3^5)^4=3^{5\times4}=3^{20}$

To solve the given expression $(2^3)^6$, we apply the power of a power rule $(a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}$. Here, $a = 2$, $m = 3$, and $n = 6$.

Thus, we calculate the exponent:

$3 \cdot 6 = 18$

So, $(2^3)^6 = 2^{18}$.

To solve the problem, we need to apply the power of a product exponent rule. This rule states that when you raise a product to a power, it's the same as raising each factor to that power. In mathematical terms, if you have $(abc)^n$, it is equivalent to $a^n \times b^n \times c^n$.

Let's apply this rule step by step:

Our original expression is: $(2 \times 7 \times 5)^3$.

We first identify the factors inside the parentheses as $2$, $7$, and $5$.

According to the Power of a Product rule, we can distribute the exponent$3$ to each factor:

First, raise $2$ to the power of $3$ to get $2^3$.

Then, raise $7$ to the power of $3$ to get $7^3$.

Finally, raise $5$ to the power of $3$ to get $5^3$.

Therefore, the expression $(2 \times 7 \times 5)^3$ simplifies to $2^3 \times 7^3 \times 5^3$.

To solve this exercise, first we note that 25 is the result of a power and we reduce it to a common base of 5.

$\sqrt{25}=5$$25=5^2$Now, we go back to the initial exercise and solve by adding the powers according to the formula:

$a^n\times a^m=a^{n+m}$

$5^4\times25=5^4\times5^2=5^{4+2}=5^6$

Using the quotient rule for exponents: $\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$.

Here, we have $\frac{3^5}{3^2} = 3^{5-2}$

Simplifying, we get $3^3$

Using the quotient rule for exponents: $\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$.

Here, we have $\frac{5^6}{5^4} = 5^{6-4}$. Simplifying, we get $5^2$.

Using the rules of negative exponents: how to raise a number to a negative exponent:

$a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}$We apply it to the problem:

$$$$$7^{-24}=\frac{1}{7^{24}}$Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

We begin by using the power rule of negative exponents.

$a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}$We then apply it to the problem:

$$$4^{-1}=\frac{1}{4^1}=\frac{1}{4}$We can therefore deduce that the correct answer is option B.
