Study Notes

Exponents and Powers

  • 2^3 × 2^5 = 2^(3+5) = 2^8

Solving for x in x^(-2) = 1/16

  • x^(-2) = 1/16 => x^2 = 16 => x = ±4

Powers of Powers

  • (3^2)^4 = 3^(2×4) = 3^8

Solving for a in a^2 = 16

  • a^2 = 16 => a = ±4 => a^5 = (±4)^5 = ±1024

Simplifying Expressions

  • (2^3)^(-2) × 2^5 = 2^(-3×2) × 2^5 = 2^(-6) × 2^5 = 2^(-1) = 1/2
