Abyda and Breonn are studying mathematics together. They came across a term 'negative exponent law' in their textbook. Can you explain what it is to them?

• It's like when Abyda wants to raise an expression with an exponent to another exponent, she should keep the base the same and multiply the exponents

• It's like when Breonn wants to find for every number “a” with negative exponents “-n” (i.e.) a^-n, take the reciprocal of the base number and multiply the value according to the value of the exponent number.

• It's like when Abyda and Breonn want to multiply factors that have the same base, they should keep the base the same and add the exponents

• It's like when Abyda wants to raise a product to an exponent, she should raise each factor to the exponent

Haadiyah and Yazan are studying mathematics together and they came across a concept while solving problems. What is the rule they should follow when they multiply factors that have the same base?

• When they raise an expression with an exponent to another exponent, they should keep the base the same and multiply the exponents

• When they divide expressions that have the same base, they should keep the base the same and subtract the exponents

• When they multiply factors that have the same base, they should keep the base the same and add the exponents

• When they raise a product to an exponent, they should raise each factor to the exponent

Haadiyah is helping her younger brother, Nabeel, with his math homework. They encounter a problem where they need to divide two expressions with the same base. What rule should they use?

• To raise an expression with an exponent to another exponent, keep the base the same and multiply the exponents

• To divide expressions that have the same base, keep the base the same and subtract the exponents

• To multiply factors that have the same base, keep the base the same and add the exponents

• To raise a quotient to an exponent, raise the numerator and denominator to the exponent

Umar and Abyda are scientists working on a project that often requires them to deal with very large or very small numbers. Which method do they use to simplify their calculations?

• A method of writing very large or very small numbers using exponents in which a number is expressed as the product of a power of 10 and a number that is between 1 and 10

• A method of writing numbers using radicals and square roots

• A method of writing numbers using fractions and decimals

• A method of writing numbers using logarithms and exponential functions
