8 = 2 to the third, so 8 to the sixth = 2 to the eighteenth. ie ((2 to the third) to the sixth). In this case you multiply the powers, not add them. Check it out, if you added the powers, you'd get 2 to the ninth which is 512, ie 8 to the third.

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.


What is the reciprocal of x to the second power?

The reciprocal of any expression is 1 divided by that expression. In this case, the reciprocal of x2 is 1/x2. This can also be written as (1/x)2, or as x-2.


Meanning of positive exponent?

An exponent is the power that a number is raised to. For instance, in the expression 3^2 ("three squared"), 2 is the "exponent" and 3 is the "base." A positive exponent just means that the power is a positive number. For instance, the following expression does not involve a positive exponent: 3^(-2). Horses rule!!!!!

What is 5 to the power of 4 times 5 to the power of 2 written as to the power of 5?

To simplify the expression (5^4)(5^2) as a single power of 5, we can apply the rule of exponents that states when multiplying numbers with the same base, you add the exponents. In this case, 5^4 * 5^2 can be simplified to 5^(4+2) = 5^6. So, (5^4)(5^2) written as a single power of 5 is 5 to the power of 6.
