Question

Determine the value of the power 1^5

Determine the value of the power 4^7

Determine the value of the power 3^10

WHICH OF THESE DO NOT DESCRIBE THE NUMBER 1024

A: 4^5
B: 32^2
C: 2^9
D: 1024^1

Finally, how would you convince someone that x^3 could be a lot more than x^2 but could it also be the only a little more than or even the same as x^2?

Answer 1

a) 1^5 = 1

b) 4^7 = 16384

c) 3^10 = 59049

C: 2^9 ≠ 1024

The exponent 8² = 64 while 8³ = 512, but 2² = 4 while 2³ = 8.
