If a number is raised to a power of 2, it is squared. This operation results in multiplying the number by itself, yielding a product that is always non-negative for real numbers. Squaring a positive number results in a positive value, while squaring zero yields zero, and squaring a negative number also results in a positive value. Thus, the square of any real number is always greater than or equal to zero.

What is power of a number?
A number raised to the power "a" is multiplied by itself "a" times. For example, 5 raised to the power 3 is 5x5x5=125. 2 raised to the power 5 is 2x2x2x2x2=32.
Is a number to the third power cubed?
YES!!! A number raised to the power of '2', is said to be 'squared' A number raised to the power of '3' , is said to be 'cubed'. There is no corresponding , name/number for hight powers. It is just raised to the fourth power.
What is 5 to the 6th power times 5 to the -2 power?
As the number being raised to the powers is the same, the powers can be added together and the answer is the number raised to this power: 56 x 5-2 = 56 + -2 = 54 = 625
What is the missing number in the sequence 1 - 8 - 27 - - 125 - 216?
The missing number in this sequence is 64, or 4 raised to the third power. You find the answer by noting that each number in the sequence is a counting number starting at 1 that is raised to the third power. For example, 2 raised to the third power (2 x 2 x 2) is 8.
Can a negative number be raised to an odd power?
yes, but the answer will remain negative. for example, (-2)3 is -8 in order to make a negative number positive, it must be raised to an even power, for example (-2)2 = 4
When a number is raised to a power what is it called?
The power could then be called an exponent. The number that is being raised to a power is called the base. In the case of 42, the exponent is 2 and the base is 4.

When is a negative number raised to an odd power negative?
It is always negative when raised to an odd power and always positive when raised to an even power -2 to the third power = -2 x -2 x -2 = -8 -2 to the fourth power = -2 x -2 x -2 x -2 = +16
What is 5 to the 6th power times 5 to the -2 power?
As the number being raised to the powers is the same, the powers can be added together and the answer is the number raised to this power: 56 x 5-2 = 56 + -2 = 54 = 625
What is the missing number in the sequence 1 - 8 - 27 - - 125 - 216?
The missing number in this sequence is 64, or 4 raised to the third power. You find the answer by noting that each number in the sequence is a counting number starting at 1 that is raised to the third power. For example, 2 raised to the third power (2 x 2 x 2) is 8.
What the smallest prime number raised to the 4th power?
The smallest prime number is 2.
Is there such a number that if raised to the exponent of 1 is equivalent to that number being raised to the power of -1?
2
Can a negative number be raised to an odd power?
yes, but the answer will remain negative. for example, (-2)3 is -8 in order to make a negative number positive, it must be raised to an even power, for example (-2)2 = 4
What does raised to the fourth power mean?
If a number is raised to the fourth power, it is multiplied by itself four times. For example, 24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16.
Why does 2 to the zeroth power equal 1?
Anything raised to the power of zero is 1. Not just the number 2.
What is the exponent for 82?
The exponent for 8^2 is 2. In this case, the number 2 represents the power to which the base number 8 is raised. When 8 is raised to the power of 2, it equals 64. Exponents indicate how many times a number is multiplied by itself.
