Actually, a base and exponent are not multiplied together. Rather, the exponent indicates the "power" of the base number, the number of times the base is to be multiplied by itself. For example the expression 23, where the base is 2 and the exponent is 3, represents the product of 3 2s; that is, 2 x 2 x 2, equaling 8. Powers of zero are a special case. By convention, and to support exponent operations, any number (excepting zero) to the power of zero equals one. Therefore the number with a base of 34 and exponent of 0 is written as 340, and 340 = 1.

How can you tell if an exponential function is exponential growth or decay by looking at its base?
It is not enough to look at the base. This is because a^x is the same as (1/a)^-x : the key is therefore a combination of the base and the sign of the exponent.0 < base < 1, exponent < 0 : growth0 < base < 1, exponent > 0 : decaybase > 1, exponent < 0 : decaybase > 1, exponent > 0 : growth.
What is 0 as an exponent?
0 as an exponent is zero no matter what your question is even if your question is "What is 70 to the 0 power?" your answer will all ways be 0 because you are basically saying what is 70 times 0? and any number times 0 is 0.
What is the exponent of 30?

What does 6 with an exponent of 0 equal?
Any number with an exponent of zero is equal to one. 60 = 1
What is the exponent of 111?
The exponent of 111 is 0. 1110 = 111 . Any number raised to the power of zero is that number.

What is the base and exponent for 121?
You can choose the base to be any number (other than 0, -1 and 1) and calculate the appropriate exponent, or you can choose any exponent and calculate the appropriate base. For example, base 10: 121 = 10^2.08278537 (approx) Or exponent = 10: 121 = 1.615394266^10 (approx). I expect, though, that the answer that is required is 121 = 11^2.
The number of times the base is used as a factor in a power?
there is no number that is equal to 0/0 the 0/0 is
In exponential growth functions the base of the exponent must be greater than 1. How would the function change if the base of the exponent were 1 How would the function change if the base of the expon?
"The base of the exponent" doesn't make sense; base and exponent are two different parts of an exponential function. To be an exponential function, the variable must be in the exponent. Assuming the base is positive:* If the base is greater than 1, the function increases. * If the base is 1, you have a constant function. * If the base is less than 1, the function decreases.
How do you do derivatives?
Take the exponent and multiply it by the coefficient (or 1 if there is no coefficient) then subract 1 from the exponent. For example, the derivative of 2x^3 is 6x^2 If there is no exponent, for example, 2x the derivative is 2 because the exponent is actually 1 which produces the same coefficient and the exponent 0 meaning there is no x.
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
Will a negative exponent on a positive base ever result to a number less than 0?
No, it cannot.
What is D x d x 20?
Dxdx^(20)Combine all similar variables in the expression.Dxdx^(20)=dDx^(21)To find the derivative of dx^(21)D, multiply the base (D) by the exponent (1), then subtract 1 from the exponent (1-1=0). Since the exponent is now 0, D is eliminated from the term.Dxdx^(20)=dx^(21)The derivative of Dxdx^(20) is dx^(21).dx^(21)

Do negative exponent not mean to make the base number negative?
No, there is a big difference between 2^(-4) and (-2)^4 The first is 1/16 and the second is 16. A negative exponent is the reciprocal of a positive exponent. a^b is going to be 1/ (a^(-b)), Similarly, (a^b)*(a^(-b))=1 for two reasons. First multiplying reciprocals cancels them out. Second, when you multiply the same base you add the exponents, so (a^b)*(a^(-b)) = a^0 which equals 1◄
What is 2 to the 0 power?
1. Anything to the power of 0 is 1. Look at it this way. 2^3=8 Divide that by two, or the base. 2^3/2=2^2=4 Divide that by two. 2^2/2=2^1=2 Divide that by two. 2^1/2=2^0=1 Every time you lower an exponent by one power, you pretty much divide the number by its base. Key terms. Base: In 2^0, 2 is the base since you are multiplying it by itself "0 times". The power, or exponent: In 2^0, 0 is the power/exponent since it is the number of times 2 will be multiplied.
12 with an exponent of 0?
120= 1 Anything with exponent 0 is 1, because if you multiply n0 by n0 you add the indices to get n0 and anything nonzero that when multiplied by itself gives itself, must be 1: if x2 = x then x2 - x = 0, so x(x-1)=0, so x=1 or 0.
