Index Laws Whenever we have variables which contain exponents and have equal bases, we can do certain mathematical operations to them. Those operations are called the “Index Laws” b x b = basex = exponent

Index Laws

Other Properties of Exponents Any single number or variable is always to the first power

Basic Examples

More Examples

nth Roots An nth root of number a is a number whose nth power is a. a number whose nth power is a If the index n is even, then the number a must be nonnegative. is not a real number
