4-1 Exponents
4-1/4-2 Exponents and Integer Exponents
If a number is in exponential form, the exponent represents how many times the base is to be used as a factor. A number produced by raising a base to an exponent is called a power. Both 27 and 33 represent the same power.

4-1 Exponents
Identify how many times 4 is a factor.4 • 4 • 4 • 4 = 44
Write in exponential form.
Example 1: Writing Exponents
A. 4 • 4 • 4 • 4
Read –(63) as “negative 6 to the 3rd power” or “negative 6 cubed”.
Reading Math
Identify how many times –6 is a factor.
(–6) • (–6) • (–6) = (–6)3
B. (–6) • (–6) • (–6)

Example 3: Using the Order of Operations
4(7) + 16
Substitute 4 for x, 2 for y, and 3 for z.
Evaluate the exponent.
Subtract inside the parentheses.
Multiply from left to right.
4(24 – 32) + 42
4(16 – 9) + 16
28 + 16
Evaluate x(yx – zy) + x for x = 4, y = 2, and z = 3.
y
x(yx – zy) + xy
Add. 44

Look for a pattern in the table to extend what you know about exponents to include negative exponents.
÷ 10 ÷ 10 ÷ 10 ÷ 10
102 101 100 10–1 10–2
10 • 10

= 0.1
110 • 10

Example 1: Using a Pattern to Simplify Negative Exponents
Simplify. Write in decimal form.
A. 10–2
10–2 = 1
10 • 10
= 1100
= 0.01
B. 10–1
= = 0.1110
= 110
Extend the pattern from the table.
Multiply. Write as a decimal.
