How do you calculate the exponent y if the base is 2 and the answer is 50?

If 2y = 50
then y*log(2) = log(50)
so that y = log(50)/log(2) = 5.6439 (approx).
NB: The logarithms can be taken to any base >1.

How do you find exponent for 262144?
The exponent can only be found in the context of a base. But there is no base specified and so there can be no clear answer.On possible answer is that 262144 = 512^2 so, with the base 512, the exponent is 2.
Is 2 by the power of 5 an exponent?
In the number 25 the exponent is 5. Whereas, 2 is the base.
What is base and exponent of 625?
You can define any base you like and calculate an appropriate exponent or, you can pick an exponent and calculate the base. So you can have base 25, with exponent 2 or base 5 and exonent 4 or base e (the base for natural logarithms) and exponent 6.437752 (to 6 dp) or base 10 and exponent 2.795880 (to 6 dp) or base 2 and exponent 9.287712 etc or base 8.54988 (to 3 dp) and exponent 3 or base 3.623898 (to 3 dp) and exponent 5 etc There is no need for the base to be an integer or even rational. Probably the most important bases in advanced mathematics is e, which is a transcendental number. Similarly, there is no need for the exponent to be an integer.

What is the base and exponent for 121?
You can choose the base to be any number (other than 0, -1 and 1) and calculate the appropriate exponent, or you can choose any exponent and calculate the appropriate base. For example, base 10: 121 = 10^2.08278537 (approx) Or exponent = 10: 121 = 1.615394266^10 (approx). I expect, though, that the answer that is required is 121 = 11^2.
