An exponent is a mathematical notation indicating the number of times a number (the base) is multiplied by itself. For example, in $$2^3$$ , 2 is the base and 3 is the exponent, meaning $$2 \times 2 \times 2$$ .

How do you simplify $$\frac{24k^{12}}{8k^2}$$ ?

To simplify, divide the coefficients (24/8 = 3) and subtract the exponents of k (12-2 = 10), resulting in $$3k^{10}$$ .

How do you simplify $$\frac{30x^3y^5}{10x^2y^3}$$ ?

To simplify, divide the coefficients (30/10 = 3), subtract the exponents of x (3-2 = 1), and subtract the exponents of y (5-3 = 2), resulting in $$3xy^2$$ .

What is the simplified form of $$x^{-1}y^3$$ using only positive exponents?

The simplified form is $$\frac{y^3}{x}$$ .

What is the simplified form of $$6y^{-2}$$ ?

The simplified form is $$\frac{6}{y^2}$$ .

What is the simplified form of $$2c^7d^{13} + 2c^7d^{13}$$ ?

The simplified form is $$4c^7d^{13}$$ .

What is the definition of a base in exponents?

The base is the number that is raised to a power in an exponential expression. For example, in $$3^4$$ , 3 is the base.

What is the zero exponent rule?

The zero exponent rule states that any non-zero number raised to the power of zero equals one. For example, $$a^0 = 1$$ , where a ≠ 0.

What is the definition of a coefficient in an expression?

A coefficient is a numerical factor in a term of an expression. For example, in $$5x^2$$ , 5 is the coefficient.
