Power. It is the number of times you use the base as a factor in a multiplication problem.
The main use for a logarithm is to find an exponent. If N = a^x Then if we are told to find that exponent of the base (b) that will equal that value of N then the notation is: log N ....b And the result is x = log N ..........b Such that b^x = N N is often just called the "Number", but it is the actuall value of the indicated power. b is the base (of the indicated power), and x is the exponent (of the indicated power). We see that the main use of a logarithm function is to find an exponent. The main use for the antilog function is to find the value of N given the base (b) and the exponent (x)
"It is easy to use an exponent in a sentence." There, that sentence uses it!
A rational exponent means that you use a fraction as an exponent, for example, 10 to the power 1/3. These exponents are interpreted as follows, for example:10 to the power 1/3 = 3rd root of 1010 to the power 2/3 = (3rd root of 10) squared, or equivalently, 3rd root of (10 squared)
when you're doing a problem like that use this trick. let's say you have 3 to the -7 power minus 3 to the 4 power. -7 - 4 can also be shown as -7 + -4. i switched the minus sign to a plus sign and because i did that, i had to switch the positive 4 to a negative 4. so i got 3 to the -7 power plus 3 to the -4 power.
How do you use an exponent to represent a number such as 16
11(base number) was multiplied by it's own number five times, in exponent form that would be eleven to the power of 5 ex: 11x11x11x11x11=11to the power of 5
1000 = 10x10x10 = 103.The 3 is an exponent. It tells you how many times 10 is multiplied by itself to get 1000.
You use the ^ symbol, or you can use the Power function:=10^2=Power(10,2)

The answer is a^2b^2, because the smallest exponent of the a's is 2 and the same thing with the b's. Therefore, that's the LCM (or least common multiple), because it is the smallest value the two terms share with one another. **When writing an exponent on a computer, you use a carrot (^) to represent the exponent.

3^(5) = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 243 The word 'exponent' can also be shown as ' index number' or 'power'.
Use the exponent symbol (^). Example: 3 to the 4th power is 3^4.
