Note that most of the laws for exponents are equally valid for negative, and fractional, exponents. In part, that is because negative and fractional exponents are DEFINED so that those laws continue being valid.Using "^" for power, and "*" for multiplication, some of the fundamental rules are:

a^b * a^c = a^(b+c)

a^b / a^c = a^(b-c)

(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

a^c * b^c = (ab)^c

All of these are valid for any real exponent - including negative and fractional numbers.

ax * ay = a(x+y)ax / ay = a(x-y)

(ax)y = a(x*y)

ax * bx = (ab)x

Why do you use exponents?

Exponents are used in many different contexts and for different, though related, reasons. Exponents are used in scientific notation to represent very large and very small numbers. The main purpose it to strip the number of unnecessary detail and to reduce the risk of errors. Exponents are used in algebra and calculus to deal with exponential or power functions. Many laws in physics, for example, involve powers (positive, negative or fractional) of basic measures. Calculations based on these laws are simper if exponents are used.

What are examples of positive laws?

Positive law is the same thing as human law. So any type of law that is promulgated by the states/government is a positive law. For example, the speed limit is a positive law. Laws against murder are also positive laws, but they are based on the Natural Law. All positive laws should be based on the Natural Law, but they are not. The laws on abortion, for example, are contrary to the Natural Law; however, the laws on abortion are positive laws.
