Any number to the first stays the same, so x to the first equals x.
x to the power 2 = (x to the power 3)/x; x to the power 1 = (x to the power 2)/x; x to the power 0 = (x to the power 1)/x. As x to the power 1 is merely x then the last expression is equivalent to x/x, ie 1.
If that is x to the power 0, then it = 1, irrespective of the value of x. Consider for example x =4. x squared is 16. To get from x to the power 2 to x to the power 1, you divide by x, giving 4 to the power 1 = 4. Similarly, to get from x to the power 1 to x to the power 0, you divide by x, giving 4 to the power zero = 1.
x to the power of 1 means x
By definition of powers, x to the power y = x*x*x*........y times x to the power 1 = x Therefore, 10 to the power 1 = 10.
18 = 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 1 1 to the power of any number, including 0, is always 1.
x^-1 * x^-1 =x^(-1 + -1) =x^-2 or alternatively: 1/x times 1/x =1/x^2 (1/x^2) is the same as (x^-2)
1
x-1 = 1/x
Silly question. x to the power of four equals 1 only when x is 1, -1, i or -i.
1 x 10 to the power of 2 is 1 x 102 or 10 x 10 or 100
It is 1/x3 = 1/(x*x*x)
Anything to the power 0 is 1. Using the laws of powers to get to x to the power n-1 from x to the power n you divide by n; eg to get 4 squared (16) from 4 cubed (64) you divide 64 by 4. If you start with x to the power 1 and want x to the power zero, you divide by x. And x divided by x is 1.
