When a number is raised to the second power, it is said to be squared. When a number is raised to the third power, it is said to be cubed. When a number is raised to the power of 4 or higher, we simply say that that number is raised to that particular power.

Similarly, the expressions in an equation remain balanced when we add the same quantity to both sides of the equation. In this section, we will solve equations, remembering that what we do to one side of the equation, we must also do to the other side.

    To simplify the power of a product of two exponential expressions, we can use the power of a product rule of exponents, which breaks up the power of a product of factors into the product of the powers...To simplify the power of a product of two exponential expressions, we can use the power of a product rule of exponents, which breaks up the power of a product of factors into the product of the powers of the factors. To simplify the power of a quotient of two expressions, we can use the power of a quotient rule, which states that the power of a quotient of factors is the quotient of the powers of the factors.

If this is true, then the language of mathematics is numbers. The earliest use of numbers occurred 100 centuries ago in the Middle East to count, or enumerate items. Because of the evolution of number systems, we can now perform complex calculations using these and other categories of real numbers. In this section, we will explore sets of numbers, calculations with different kinds of numbers, and the use of numbers in expressions.

Remember that an exponent indicates repeated multiplication of the same quantity. You have seen that when you combine like terms by adding and subtracting, you need to have the same base with the same exponent. But when you multiply and divide, the exponents may be different, and sometimes the bases may be different, too. We’ll derive the properties of exponents by looking for patterns in several examples.
