In summary, the purpose of writing powers on webassign is to accurately represent mathematical expressions that involve exponents for solving complex calculations and equations. To write powers on webassign, use the caret symbol between the base number and exponent, and parentheses for fractions. It is necessary to include parentheses when writing a power with multiple terms to ensure correct order of operations. There are some restrictions when writing powers on webassign, such as using numerical values for the base and non-negative exponents, and considering character limits for very large or complex powers.

Writing powers on webassign...URGENT

Hey,
It's 10:35 Eastern U.S time now, i need help within 2o min for a homwework...

How you can write powers usgin (e) notation
-Should it be E or e
-Should you say 2e3 ? or 2*e^3?

a thingy to mention: I am using www.webassign.com for homeworks, it that additional info might "inspire" you some thing...
The sooner the better,
Cheerz.

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out for help with your homework on webassign. Writing powers on webassign is quite simple and can be done using the (e) notation. The correct notation to use is "E" for the exponent, not "e". For example, if you want to write 2 to the power of 3, it would be written as 2E3 on webassign. You do not need to include the multiplication symbol (*), it is automatically implied. So, 2E3 is the same as 2*e^3.

Additionally, it is great that you mentioned you are using webassign for your homework. This information can definitely help in providing more specific and accurate guidance for your assignment. Remember, the sooner you submit your homework, the better. Good luck with your assignment!


 

FAQ: How Do You Correctly Write Powers Using Notation on WebAssign?

What is the purpose of writing powers on webassign?

The purpose of writing powers on webassign is to accurately represent mathematical expressions that involve exponents. This allows for more complex calculations and equations to be solved using the webassign platform.

How do I write powers on webassign?

To write powers on webassign, use the caret symbol (^) between the base number and the exponent. For example, to write 5 squared, you would type "5^2" on webassign.

Can I write fractions as powers on webassign?

Yes, you can write fractions as powers on webassign by using parentheses. For example, to write 1/2 to the power of 3, you would type "(1/2)^3" on webassign.

Do I need to include parentheses when writing a power with multiple terms?

Yes, parentheses are necessary when writing a power with multiple terms on webassign. This ensures that the correct order of operations is followed and the expression is evaluated accurately.

Are there any restrictions or limitations when writing powers on webassign?

Yes, there are some restrictions when writing powers on webassign. The base number and exponent must be numerical values, and the exponent cannot be negative. Additionally, webassign has a character limit for expressions, so very large or complex powers may need to be broken up into smaller expressions.
