1.2.14 Laws of indices

Card 1 of 21

For powers with the same base, aman=a^m a^n =aman= [...]\text{[...]}[...].

A

For any non-zero base, a0=1\boxed{a^0=1}a0=1​.

B

For powers with the same base, aman=a^m a^n =aman= am+n\boxed{a^{m+n}}am+n​.

C

A fractional index satisfies am/n=amn\boxed{a^{m/n}=\sqrt[n]{a^m}}am/n=nam​​.

D

3x9/43x^{9/4}3x9/4
