 Exponents 2 4 The base is the two and the exponent is 4. __Standard Form__ Means the answer 24 (2)(2)(2)(2) = 16 __Expanded Form__ 156 1x 100+ 5x10+6x1 __Exponential Form__ Leaving it as an exponent.

__3.1 Positive and Negative Exponents

Exponent - is the little number. Base- is the big number 5e = 25 52 356.52= 3 X 10 1 + 6 X 10 0 + 5 X 10 -1 + 2 X10-2

3.2 Multiplication using Exponents When multiplying the exponents with common bases keep the base and add the exponent

53X54 = 5 3+4 = 5 7

3.3 DIVISION USING EXPONENTS

when dividing exponents with a common base keep the base and subtract the exponents.

812__÷8 3

3.4 POWER OF POWER PROPERTY (8 5 ) 3 The rule is keep the base and multiply the exponents.
