Basic Meaning of Exponents

x^n

x \times x \times x \times \dots \text{ n times } = x^n

x^{-n} = 1/x^n

Laws of Exponents

a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}

a^m / a^n = a^{m-n}, if m > n

a^m / a^n = 1/a^{n-m}, if n > m

(a^m)^n = a^{mn}

(a \times b)^n = a^n \times b^n

Negative and Zero Exponents

a^{-n} = 1/a^n

a^n = 1/a^{-n}

a^0 = 1

Signs of Negative Bases

(-a)^m = a^m, if m is even

(-a)^m = -a^m, if m is odd
