Product of Powers Rule |
Xm × Xn = Xm+n |
Quotient of Powers Rule |
Xm ÷ Xn = Xm−n |
Power of a Power Rule |
(Xm)n = Xm×n |
Power of a Product Rule |
(X × Y)m = Xm × Ym |
Power of a Quotient Rule |
(X ÷ Y)m = Xm ÷ Ym |
Zero Exponent Rule |
X0 = 1 (for X ≠ 0) |
Negative Exponent Rule |
X−n = 1 ÷ Xn |
