1 is the base, 40 is the exponent (140)
no exponent can make a number equal to zero, however any number with an exponent of zero is one.
A number to a negative exponent is the inverse of the number to the positive exponent. That is, x-a = 1/xa
The square of a number can be represented by writing the number with an exponent of 2, whereas the square root of the number is represented by writing the number with an exponent of 1/2.
You multiply the whole number as many times as the exponent is.
The number 40 can be written as 4.00 × 101
40-9
2^3 x 5
1 is the base, 40 is the exponent (140)
40*40*40*40
The sign of the exponent for a number written in scientific notation depends on whether it is a whole number or a fraction. 40 is 4 x 101 0.4 is 4 x 10-1
Yes, you can, but it starts getting complicated. You can, for example have a number raised to an exponent that is itself a number raised to an exponent, or you can have a number raised to an exponent and the result raised to another exponent.
Yes, 25 CAN BE and exponent. Any number can be and exponent
The exponent.
The base of an exponent is the main number. For example in 56 the number 5 is the base and 6 is the exponent.
no exponent can make a number equal to zero, however any number with an exponent of zero is one.
