To simplify expressions with exponents, you can use the following rules:
To solve equations with exponents, you can use the following steps:
To convert from exponential to logarithmic form, use the following formula: logb(x) = y is equivalent to by = x. To convert from logarithmic to exponential form, use the following formula: by = x is equivalent to logb(x) = y.
Negative exponents indicate the reciprocal of a number raised to a positive exponent. For example, 2-3 is equivalent to 1/(23) = 1/8. Fractional exponents indicate a root of a number. For example, 41/2 is equivalent to the square root of 4, which is 2.
When solving expressions with multiple operations and exponents, follow the order of operations: parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), addition and subtraction (from left to right). Make sure to simplify any exponents before performing other operations.
