𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Write in exponential form (2⁰ + 3⁰) 4⁰
𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
Using the rule of exponents:
a⁰ = 1 for any non-zero number a.
2⁰ = 1
3⁰ = 1
4⁰ = 1
Substitute these values into the expression:
(1 + 1) × 1
= 2 × 1
= 2
To write 2 in exponential form, we can use 2¹ or simply 2. If the intention was to keep bases from the original problem, this cannot be directly done in a simplified single exponential form.
