    This document discusses exponential form and the laws of exponents. Exponential form expresses a number by multiplying a base a certain number of times, called the exponent or power. There are five laws of exponents: 1) multiplying exponents with the same base adds the exponents, 2) dividing exponents with the same base subtracts the exponents, 3) raising a power to a power multiplies the exponents, 4) any base with a zero exponent equals one, and 5) a negative exponent takes the reciprocal of the base and makes the exponent positive. These laws allow mathematical operations to be performed on expressions written in exponential form.

    POWER AND EXPONENTS

    EXPONENTIAL FORM :-
    The exponential form is a alternative method of expressing
    number n
    Exponential number for example a where
    (a) is multiplied by itself n times .
    3
    A simple example is 8 = 8x8x8 . In exponential
    notation , a termed the base while n is termed as
    power or exponent or index .
    LAWS OF EXPONENTS
    1. Multiplying
    2. Dividing
    3. Power to Power
    4. Zero power
    5. Negative Exponents
    MULTIPLYING EXPONENTS
    • Law of multiplication :- If you are multiplying the exponent having same base , keep the
    base same & add the exponents
    DIVIDING THE EXPONENTS
    • Law of division:- When dividing exponents with the same base, keep the base same &
    subtract the exponents .
    POWER TO A POWER
    • Law of power to a power :- If you are raising a power to a power , you have to multiply the
    exponent .
    ZERO POWER
    • Law of zero exponent :- any base having power zero ,exponent = one
    NEGATIVE EXPONENTS
    • Law of negative exponent :- If the base is powered by the negative exponent , then the
    base becomes reciprocal with the positive exponent .
