laws of indices
๐read Laws of indices Example: a)8=2*2*2= 2^3 b)a*a*a*a*a*a= a^6 c)625=25*25= 25^2 d)81=3*3*3*3= 3^4 e)c*c*c=c^3. Every unit highlighted in red above. Is said to be in its index form . A form where it possesses a base digit and a power digit. These are instances of some units in their index form. 2^-3 3^a a^c d^0.5 We begin from the first to the last law of indices as written below: ๐๐ 1. MULTIPLICATION LAW; a^b *a^c= a^(b+c) 2^3*2^2=2^(3+2)=2^5=32 to confirm; 2^3*2^2=(2*2*2)*(2*2)=8*4=32 note carefully, this can only be made possible if both bases are equal a^b*d^c = (ad)^b+c 2. DIVISION LAW; a^b /a^c= a^(b-c) 2^3/2^2=2^(3-2)=2^1=2 provided there is an absence of an unequal base 3. zero index LAW ; a^0= 1; provide a is not the same as ze...
