Additional Information -:

Laws of exponent :


\small\rm{1) \: {x}^(m) * {x}^(n) = {x}^(m + n) }


\small\rm{2) \: \frac{ {x}^(m) }{ {x}^(n) } = {x}^(m - n) \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \sf{[if \: m>n}] }


\small\rm{3) \: \frac{ {x}^(m) }{ {x}^(n) } = \frac{1}{ {x}^(n - m) } \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \sf{[if \: n>m]} }


\small\rm{4) \: ( {x}^(m) {)}^(n) = {x}^(mn) }


\small\rm{5) \: {x}^(0) = 1}
