Study Notes
Power of a Power Property of Exponents
- When raising a power to another power, multiply the exponents.
- Example: ((a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n})
Division Property of Exponents
- When dividing two powers with the same base, subtract the exponents.
- Example: (\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n})
Multiplication Property of Exponents
- When multiplying two powers with the same base, add the exponents.
- Example: (a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n})
Zero Exponent Property
- Any non-zero base raised to the power of zero equals one.
- Example: (a^0 = 1) (where (a \neq 0))
Power of a Quotient Property of Exponents
- When raising a quotient to a power, apply the exponent to both the numerator and denominator.
- Example: (\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^n = \frac{a^n}{b^n})
Power of a Product Property of Exponents
- When raising a product to a power, apply the exponent to each factor in the product.
- Example: ((ab)^n = a^n \cdot b^n)
Negative Exponent Property
- A negative exponent indicates the reciprocal of the base raised to the opposite positive exponent.
- Example: (a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}) (where (a \neq 0))
