Property 1 :
If two terms are multiplied with the same base, the base has to be taken once and exponents have to be added.
That is,
xm ⋅ xn = xm+n
Example :
34 ⋅ 35 = 34+5
34 ⋅ 35 = 39
Property 2 :
If two terms are in division with the same base, the base has to be taken once and exponents have to be subtracted.
That is
xm ÷ xn = xm-n
Example :
37 ÷ 35 = 37-5
37 ÷ 35 = 32
Property 3 :
If there is an exponent for an exponential term, two exponents can either be multiplied or interchanged.
That is
(xm)n = xmn
or
(xm)n = (xn)m
Example :
(32)4 = 3(2)(4)
(32)4 = 38
Property 4 :
If there is a common exponent for the product of two or more terms, the exponent can be distributed to each term.
That is
(xy)m = xm ⋅ ym
Example :
(3 ⋅ 5)2 = 32 ⋅ 52
(3 ⋅ 5)2 = 9 ⋅ 25
(3 ⋅ 5)2 = 225.
Property 5 :
If there is a common exponent for two terms in division, the exponent can be distributed to each term.
That is
(x / y)m = xm / ym
Example :
(3 / 5)2 = 32 / 52
(3 / 5)2 = 9 / 25
Property 6 :
If a term is moved from numerator to denominator or denominator to numerator, the sign of the exponent has to be changed.
That is
x-m = 1 / xm
Example :
3-2 = 1 / 32
3-2 = 1 / 9
Property 7 :
For any base, if the exponent is zero, its value is 1.
That is
x0 = 1
Example :
30 = 1
Property 8 :
For any base base, if there is no exponent, the exponent is assumed to be 1.
That is
x = x1
Example :
31 = 3
Problem 1 :
Simplify the expression given below.
(5 - 2)5 · 3-8 + (5 + 2)0
Solution :
= (5 - 2)5 · 3-8 + (5 + 2)0
= 35 · 3-8 + 70
= 35-8 + 1
= 3-3 + 1
= 1/27 + 1
= 1/27 + 1
= 1/27 + 27/27
= (1 + 27) / 27
= 28/27
Therefore,
(5 - 2)5 · 3-8 + (5 + 2)0 = 28/27
Problem 2 :
Simplify the expression given below.
[(3 + 1)2]3 / (7 - 3)2
Answer :
= [(3 + 1)2]3 / (7 - 3)2
= [42]3 / 42
= 46 / 42
= 46 - 2
= 44
= 4 ⋅ 4 ⋅ 4 ⋅ 4
= 256
Therefore,
[(3 + 1)2]3 / (7 - 3)2 = 256
Problem 3 :
Simplify the expression given below.
[(6 - 1)2]2 / (3 + 2)3
Answer :
= [(6 - 1)2]2 / (3 + 2)3
= [52]2 / 53
= 54 / 53
= 54 - 3
= 51
= 5
Therefore,
[(6 - 1)2]2 / (3 + 2)3 = 5
Problem 4 :
Simplify the expression given below.
[(2)2]3 - (10 - 6)4 ⋅ 4-5
Answer :
= [(2)2]3 - (10 - 6)4 ⋅ 4-5
= 43 - 44 ⋅ 4-5
= 43 - 44 - 5
= 43 - 4-1
= 64 - 1/4
= 64 - 1/4
= 256/4 - 1/4
= (256 - 1) / 4
= 255/4
Therefore,
[(2)2]3 - (10 - 6)4 ⋅ 4-5 = 255/4
Problem 5 :
Simplify the expression given below.
[(8)2]-1 ⋅ (10 - 8)14 ⋅ 4-5
Answer :
= [(8)2]-1 ⋅ (10 - 8)14 ⋅ 4-5
= (8)-2 ⋅ 214 ⋅ (22)-5
= (23)-2 ⋅ 214 ⋅ 2-10
= 2-6 ⋅ 214 ⋅ 2-10
= 2-6 + 14 - 10
= 2-2
= 1/22
= 1/4
Therefore,
[(8)2]-1 ⋅ (10 - 8)14 ⋅ 4-5 = 1/4
