Let a be any term. Then, the number that is multiplied itself is expressed as:
an where a is any real value, and n is any real integer.
What is the number or expression in a power that is multiplied by itself
It is called a power. If the power is 2, it is read as "squared and if the power is 3 it is read as "cubed", otherwise is is read as "to the power of ..."
base
One to any power is still one. If the power is positive, you have 1 times itself over and over again, so it does not change. If the power is zero, the answer is always one, no matter the number. If the power is negative, you find the reciprocal of the expression and make the power positive. If the base of the exponential expression is 1, it is always one.
Base of a power
Any number to the power of one is the number itself.
Any number to the first power is the number itself.
A number to the first power is the number itself.
10. Any number to the power of 1 is that number itself.
Any real number to the first power is the number itself.
a quantity representing the power to which a given number or expression is to be raised, usually expressed as a raised symbol beside the number or expression
