Index Laws An expression in the form a n is called a power. a is the base n is the index There are a number of rules involving powers

24
Equations With Indices If a m = a n, then we have powers with the same base being equal, therefore their indices must also be equal. Solving the most simple index equations involves this concept, e.g. Solve for x if 2 x = 32
25
2 x = 32 2 x = 2 5 x = 5 Try these 3 x = 81 5 x = 78 125 49 x = 7
26
Index Equations If the bases are not the same, we must attempt to express both sides of the equation as powers of the same base. Consider this. 9 x = 243 We see that 243 is not an integer power of 9, so we must find a common base that we can express both 9 and 243 in.
27
9 = 3 2 243 = 3 5 If 9 x = 243 Then (3 2 ) x = 3 5 3 2x = 3 5 2x = 5 x = 2.5
28
Now try these. 2 x = 4 3 9 x = 2 187 8 x = 4 7.5

Earthquakes, Sound & Logs Earthquake magnitude is measured by the amount of ground movement. This can vary from fractions of a millimetre to metres. Numbers with such a wide range are difficult to fit on a number line when graphing.
46
To overcome this, the Richter scale is based on exponents, base 10.

By what time must the leak be fixed to avoid notification? 10m To calculate the volume of oil spilt, we need the height of the oil above the leak. Since it starts at 3m above the leak and each hour the level is 99% of the level of the previous hour Height of oil above leak H 1 = 3 0.99 t Height oil has dropped H 2 = 3 - 3 0.99 t
