Any positive number to the 0th power is one. ex. (51^0 = 1) Any negative number to the 0th power is negative one. ex. (-23^0 = -1) The exception is 0. 0^0 = 0

Why log 0 is minus infinity?

The logarithm of zero is defined as approaching negative infinity because logarithmic functions represent the exponent to which a base must be raised to produce a given number. As the input to the logarithm approaches zero from the positive side, the exponent needed to achieve that value becomes increasingly negative. Therefore, ( \log_b(0) ) tends toward negative infinity, indicating that no finite exponent can result in zero when using positive bases.


What is the meaning of a zero exponent and the meaning of a negative exponent?

The zero exponent rule basically says that any base with an exponent of zero is equal to one. For example: x^0 = 1A negative exponent is equivalent to 1 over a positive exponent.x^1 = x x^0 = 1x^-1 = 1/x


When will the exponent be negative in scientific notation form?
