Power: a number produced by raising a base to an exponent. Base: the number or factor being raised to a power Exponent: the # that represents how many times a base is used as a factor

This is a # in Exponential Form…..

2⁵ E

S BA

This means 2 · 2 · 2 · 2 · 2 = 32

EXPONENT

 Writing

in exponential form 3 · 3 · 3 · 3 · 3 · 3  3⁶ (3 is a factor 6 times) ( ( n

-2)·(-2)·(-2)·(-2) -2 )⁴ ( -2 is a factor 4 times)

·n·n·n·n  n⁵ ( n is a factor 5 times)

 2⁶ 2

· 2 · 2 · 2 · 2 · 2 = 64

(

- 8 )²  ( - 8 ) · ( - 8 ) = 64 ( (

- 5 )³ - 5 ) · ( - 5 ) · ( - 5 ) = - 125

 Simplify

50 – 2(3 · 2³)  PEMDAS!!!!!!!  50 – 2(3 · 2³)  50 – 2(3 · 8) (solve exponents first)  50 – 2(24) (do inside parentheses)  50 – 48 (solve multiplication) 2 (get your answer from subtracting)

6⁶

10 x 10 = 100

125 – 10

115
