ViviActually, 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?
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.
