1. Write each of the following exponential expressions without the use of exponents
Note, GM.....
a-b = 1 / ab
So
2-3 = 1/23 = 1/8
Can you figure out the next three based on this???......post your answers and I'll check them
[ Also.... if a is not 0..... a0 = 1 ]
The last one is 23 = 2 * 22 = 2 * 4 = 8
Alright then solving exponents.
2-3 = 1/23 = 1/8
2-2 = 1/22 = 1/4
2-1 = 1/21 = 1/2
20 = 1
21 = 2
22 = 4
23 = 8
It looks like there is a pattern in this problem. Every time it is multiplied by 2 the exponent goes up by one and give a new answer. Is that right?
