Question

write all the laws of exponents by giving one example of each​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes! Here is your answer!

Step-by-step explanation:

There are in general six laws of exponents in Mathematics. Exponents are used to show, repeated multiplication of a number by itself. For example, 7 × 7 × 7 can be represented as 73. Here, the exponent is ‘3’ which stands for the number of times the number 7 is multiplied. 7 is the base here which is the actual number that is getting multiplied. So basically exponents or powers denotes the number of times a number can be multiplied. If the power is 2, that means the base number is multiplied two times with itself. Some of the examples are:

34 = 3×3×3×3

105 = 10×10×10×10×10

163 = 16 × 16 × 16

Suppose, a number ‘a’ is multiplied by itself n-times, then it is represented as an where a is the base and n is the exponent.

laws of exponents

Exponents follow certain rules that help in simplifying expressions which are also called its laws.

Rules of Exponents With Examples

As discussed earlier, there are majorly six laws or rules defined for exponents. In the table below, all the laws are represented.

am.an=am+n

(am)n = amn

(ab)n = an bn

(a/b)n = an/bn

am/an = am-n

am/an = 1/an-m

Product With the Same Bases

As per this law, for any non-zero term a,

am×an = am+n

where m and n are real numbers.

Example 1:

What is the simplification of 55 × 51 ?

Solution: 55 × 51 = 55+1 = 56

Example 2: What is the simplification of (−6)-4 × (−6)-7?

Solution: (−6)-4 × (−6)-7 = (-6)-4-7 = (-6)-11

Note: We can state that the law is applicable for negative terms also. Therefore the term m and n can be any integer.

Quotient with Same Bases

As per this rule,

am/an = am-n

where a is a non-zero term and m and n are integers.

Example 3: Find the value when 10-5 is divided by 10-3.

Solution: As per the question;

10-5/10-3

= 10-5-(-)3

= 10-5+3

= 10-2

= 1/100

Power Raised to a Power

According to this law, if ‘a’ is the base, then the power raised to the power of base ‘a’ gives the product of the powers raised to the base ‘a’, such as;

(am)n = amn

where a is a non-zero term and m and n are integers.

Example 4: Express 83 as a power with base 2.

Solution: We have, 2×2×2 = 8 = 23

Therefore, 83= (23)3 = 29

Product to a Power

As per this rule, for two or more different bases, if the power is same, then;

an bn = (ab)n

where a is a non-zero term and n is the integer.

Example 5: Simplify and write the exponential form of: 1/8 x 5-3

Solution: We can write, 1/8 = 2-3

Therefore, 2-3 x 5-3 = (2 × 5)-3 = 10-3

Quotient to a Power

As per this law, the fraction of two different bases with the same power is represented as;

an/bn = (a/b)n

where a and b are non-zero terms and n is an integer.

Example 6: Simplify the expression and find the value:153/53

Solution: We can write the given expression as;

(15/5)3= 33 = 27

Zero Power

According to this rule, when the power of any integer is zero, then its value is equal to 1, such as;

a0 = 1

where ‘a’ is any non-zero term.

Example 7: What is the value of 50 + 22 + 40 + 71 – 31 ?

Solution: 50 + 22 + 40 + 71 – 31 = 1+4+1+7-3= 10

Answer 2

Answer:

The rule of the product of powers

• Keep the bases the same when multiplying two bases of the same value, and then add the exponents together to get the result.

            $2^{3} * 2^{2} =2^{5}$

            $2^{3} = 8\\2^{2} = 4\\8 * 4 = 32$

     Also,

            $2^{5} = 32$

The quotient of powers rule

• Multiplication and division are diametrically opposed; similarly, the quotient rule is the polar opposite of the product rule.

• Keep the base constant when dividing two bases with the same value, and then subtract the exponent values.

                $(2x^{2} )(2x^{2} ) = ?$

      Also,

                $=> (2x^{2} )(2x^{2} ) = 4x^{4}$

The rule of a power

• This rule explains how to solve equations in which one power is boosted by another.

               $\frac{2^{5} }{2^{2} } =\frac{32}{4} = 8$

               Also

                   $\frac{2^{5} }{2^{2} } =2^{5}- 2^{2}$

                  $2^{3} = 8$

The rule of a product's power

• Distribute the exponent to each component of the base when multiplying any base by an exponent.

             $(x^{2} )^{2} => x^{2 * 2}$

              $=> x^{4}$

A quotient rule's power

• Simply said, a quotient is a result of dividing two values. You're raising a quotient by power in this rule. The exponent, like the power of a product rule, must be spread to all values within the brackets to which it is linked.

                            $(x^{2} x^{2} )^{3} => x^{6} x^{6}$

The rule of zero power

• Any base that has been raised to the power of zero equals one.

                           $x^{0} => 1$

The rule of the negative exponent

• When a negative exponent is used to raise a number, convert it to a reciprocal to make the exponent positive. To make the base negative, don't use the negative exponent.

                         $x^{-2} =>$

                         $x^{-2} => \frac{1}{x^{2}}$
