In this case, a and b are numbers, but we have not been told which numbers they are. Sometimes it is useful to talk about numbers in general. Raising a to the power of b means that the number a gets multiplied by itself, a number of times that is specified by b. So for example, if a is 3 and b is 5, then 3 to the fifth power is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3. If we do the multiplications, we would wind up with 243.
It can be raised to any power.It can be raised to any power.It can be raised to any power.It can be raised to any power.
You write it in superscore, such as b25 or B raised to the 25th power
it means that A and B have the same power
#include <math.h> double a, b, result; result = pow (a, b);
4x4x4x4
10-1 = 1/10 A number raised to a negative power is equal to the reciprocal of the number raised to the power. So a-b = (1/a)b = 1/ab
For example, 10 to the power -2 is defined as being the same as 1 divide by (10 to the power 2).Defining it this way ensures that many common rules for exponents continue being valid for all numbers, positive or negative - for example, (x to the power a) times (x to the power b) = x to the power (a + b).
10 raised to the power 10, which is 10000000000
It's pow from math.h
x to the power of 1 means x
By 'a power' I would understand you to mean a number raised to a power, such as 43. You can then refer to this as 'four to the power of three'
Using the symbol "^" for power: a^(-b) = 1 / (a^b) and: a^b = 1 / (a^(-b)) In words: raising a number to a negative power is the reciprocal of the same number, raised to the corresponding positive power (the additive inverse).
