Exponents Rules - Examples, Exercises and Solutions

We use the power property:

$X^0=1$We apply it to the problem:

$5^0=1$Therefore, the correct answer is C.

We use the zero exponent rule.

$X^0=1$We obtain

$112^0=1$Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

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:

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

We use the formula:

$(a^n)^m=a^{n\times m}$

Therefore, we obtain:

$6^{2\times13}=6^{26}$

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.

We use the formula:

$(a^m)^n=a^{m\times n}$

and therefore we obtain:

$(a^5)^7=a^{5\times7}=a^{35}$

We use the power law for multiplication within parentheses:

$(x\cdot y)^n=x^n\cdot y^n$We apply it to the problem:

$(3\cdot4\cdot5)^4=3^4\cdot4^4\cdot5^4$Therefore, the correct answer is option b.

Note:

From the formula of the power property mentioned above, we understand that it refers not only to two terms of the multiplication within parentheses, but also for multiple terms within parentheses.

We use the power law for multiplication within parentheses:

$$$(x\cdot y)^n=x^n\cdot y^n$We apply it to the problem:

$(4\cdot7\cdot3)^2=4^2\cdot7^2\cdot3^2$Therefore, the correct answer is option a.

Note:

From the formula of the power property mentioned above, we understand that we can apply it not only to the multiplication of two terms within parentheses, but is also for multiple terms within parentheses.

We use the formula: $a\times a=a^2$

In the formula, we see that the power shows the number of terms that are multiplied, that is, two times

Since in the exercise we multiply 6 three times, it means that we have 3 terms.

Therefore, the power, which is n in this case, will be 3.

Remember that according to the order of operations, exponents come before multiplication and division, which come before addition and subtraction (and parentheses always before everything),

So first calculate the values of the terms in the power and then subtract between the results:

$3^2-3^3 =9-27=-18$Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

Remember that according to the order of operations, exponents precede multiplication and division, which precede addition and subtraction (and parentheses always precede everything).

So first calculate the values of the terms in the power and then subtract between the results:

$3^2+3^3 =9+27=36$Therefore, the correct answer is option B.

We use the formula:

$(a^m)^n=a^{m\times n}$

$(4^2)^3+(g^3)^4=4^{2\times3}+g^{3\times4}=4^6+g^{12}$

We use the power rule of distributing exponents.

$(a^m)^n=a^{m\cdot n}$We apply it in the problem:

$\big((y^6)^8\big)^9=(y^{6\cdot8})^9=y^{6\cdot8\cdot9}=y^{432}$When we use the aforementioned rule twice, the first time for the inner parentheses in the first stage and the second time for the remaining parentheses in the second stage, in the last stage we calculate the result of the multiplication in the power exponent.

Therefore, the correct answer is option b.

We use the formula

$(a^m)^n=a^{m\times n}$

Therefore, we obtain:

$a^{4\times6}=a^{24}$
