This guide covers the fundamental properties of exponents, including product, power of a power, power of a product, negative exponents, zero exponents, and quotient of powers. You'll find clear explanations and examples illustrating how to apply these properties, such as simplifying expressions and converting numbers to scientific notation. Real-world applications and problems are included to enhance comprehension and foster practical skills in dealing with exponents.

Properties of Exponentsa&b are real numbers, m&n are integers • Product Property: am * an=am+n • Power of a Power Property: (am)n=amn • Power of a Product Property: (ab)m=ambm • Negative Exponent Property: a-m= ; a≠0 • Zero Exponent Property: a0=1; a≠0 • Quotient of Powers: am= am-n;a≠0 an • Power of Quotient: b≠0
Example 1 – Product Property • (-5)4 * (-5)5 = • (-5)4+5 = • (-5)9 = • -1953125
Example 2 • x5 * x2 = • x5+2 = • x7
Example 3 – Power of a Power • (23)4 = • 23*4 = • 212 = • 4096
Example 4 • (34)2 = • 34*2 = • 38 = • 6561
Example 5 – Neg. Exponent • (-5)-6(-5)4 = • (-5)-6+4 = • (-5)-2 =
Example 8 – Zero Exponent • (7b-3)2 b5 b = • 72 b-3*2 b5 b = • 49 b-6+5+1 = • 49b0 = • 49
