i. ${{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}$

Ans: We have to find the value of ${{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}$. It is $\text{2}$ raised to the power of $\text{6}$.

$\therefore {{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}\text{ = 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}\text{ = 64}$

Hence, the value of ${{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}$ is $\text{64}$.

ii. ${{\text{9}}^{\text{3}}}$

Ans: We have to find the value of ${{\text{9}}^{\text{3}}}$. It is $\text{9}$ raised to the power of $\text{3}$.

$\therefore {{\text{9}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 9 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 9 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 9}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{9}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 729}$

Hence, the value of ${{\text{9}}^{\text{3}}}$ is $\text{729}$.

iii. $\text{1}{{\text{1}}^{\text{2}}}$

Ans: We have to find the value of $\text{1}{{\text{1}}^{\text{2}}}$. It is $\text{11}$ raised to the power of $\text{2}$.

$\therefore \text{1}{{\text{1}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 11 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 11}$

$\Rightarrow \text{1}{{\text{1}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 121}$

Hence, the value of $\text{1}{{\text{1}}^{2}}$ is $\text{121}$.

iv. ${{\text{5}}^{\text{4}}}$

Ans: We have to find the value of ${{\text{5}}^{\text{4}}}$. It is $\text{5}$ raised to the power of $\text{4}$.

$\Rightarrow {{\text{5}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ = 625}$

Hence, the value of ${{\text{5}}^{\text{4}}}$ is $\text{625}$.

2. Express the following in exponential form:

i. $\text{6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6}$

Ans: We have to find the exponential form of $\text{6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6}$.

It is $\text{6}$ multiplied four times. So, it is $\text{6}$ raised to the power of $\text{4}$.

$\therefore \text{6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 = }{{\text{6}}^{\text{4}}}$

Hence, $\text{6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6}$ can be written as ${{\text{6}}^{\text{4}}}$.

ii. $\text{t }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ t}$

Ans: We have to find the exponential form of $\text{t }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ t}$.

It is $\text{t}$ multiplied two times. So, it is $\text{t}$ raised to the power of $\text{2}$.

$\therefore \text{t }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ t = }{{\text{t}}^{\text{2}}}$

Hence, $\text{t }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ t}$ can be written as ${{\text{t}}^{\text{2}}}$.

iii. $\text{b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b}$

Ans: We have to find the exponential form of $\text{b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b}$.

It is $\text{b}$ multiplied four times. So, it is $\text{b}$ raised to the power of $\text{4}$.

$\therefore \text{b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b = }{{\text{b}}^{\text{4}}}$

Hence, $\text{b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ b}$ can be written as ${{\text{b}}^{\text{4}}}$.

It is $\text{5}$ multiplied two times and $\text{7}$ multiplied three times. So, it is $\text{5}$ raised to the power of $\text{2}$ multiplied by $\text{7}$ raised to the power of $\text{3}$.

$\therefore \text{5 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 5 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7 = }{{\text{5}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{7}}^{\text{3}}}$

Hence, $\text{5 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 5 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 7}$ can be written as ${{\text{5}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{7}}^{\text{3}}}$.

Ans: We have to find the exponential form of $\text{2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a}$.

It is $\text{2}$ multiplied two times and $\text{a}$ multiplied two times. So, it is $\text{2}$ raised to the power of $\text{2}$ multiplied by $\text{a}$ raised to the power of $\text{2}$.

$\therefore \text{2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a = }{{\text{2}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{2}}}$

Hence, $\text{2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a}$ can be written as ${{\text{2}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{2}}}$.

It is $\text{a}$ multiplied three times and $\text{c}$ multiplied four times and $\text{d}$ multiplied once.

$\therefore \text{a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ d = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{c}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ d}$

Hence, $\text{a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ a }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ c }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ d}$ can be written as ${{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{c}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ d}$.

${{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ = 3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 3 = 81}$

Since $\text{81 > 64}$, we can say that ${{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ > }{{\text{4}}^{\text{3}}}$.

$\Rightarrow {{\text{2}}^{\text{100}}}\text{ = 16384 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2}\times ...$

Since $\text{10000  < 16384 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }...$, we can say that ${{\text{2}}^{\text{100}}}\text{  >10}{{\text{0}}^{\text{2}}}$.

$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 10 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 10 = 100}$

Since $\text{1024  100}$, we can say that ${{\text{2}}^{\text{10}}}\text{  1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{2}}}$.

Ans: We have to simplify ${{\text{3}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{8}}}$.

We know the law of exponents ${{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m+n}}}$.

$\therefore {{\text{3}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ = }{{\text{3}}^{\text{2+4+8}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{3}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ = }{{\text{3}}^{\text{14}}}$

Hence, we can write ${{\text{3}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{8}}}$ as ${{\text{3}}^{\text{14}}}$.

$\therefore {{\text{6}}^{\text{15}}}\text{ }\!\!\div\!\!\text{ }{{\text{6}}^{\text{10}}}\text{ = }{{\text{6}}^{\text{15-10}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{6}}^{\text{15}}}\text{ }\!\!\div\!\!\text{ }{{\text{6}}^{\text{10}}}\text{ = }{{\text{6}}^{\text{5}}}$

Hence, we can write ${{\text{6}}^{\text{15}}}\text{ }\!\!\div\!\!\text{ }{{\text{6}}^{\text{10}}}$ as ${{\text{6}}^{\text{5}}}$.

$\Rightarrow {{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}$

Hence, we can write ${{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{2}}}$ as ${{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}$.

$\therefore {{\text{7}}^{\text{x}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{7}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{7}}^{\text{x+2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{7}}^{\text{x}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{7}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{7}}^{\text{x+2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \left( \dfrac{{{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}}{{{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}} \right)\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{5-3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}$

We know the law of exponents ${{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m+n}}}$.

$\Rightarrow {{\text{a}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{2+8}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{10}}}$

Hence, we can write $\left( \dfrac{{{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}}{{{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}} \right)\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}$ as ${{\text{a}}^{\text{10}}}$.

Ans: We have to simplify $\dfrac{{{\text{4}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{3}}}}{{{\text{4}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{2}}}}$.

We know the law of exponents ${{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}}\text{ }\!\!\div\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m-n}}}$.

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{{{\text{4}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{3}}}}{{{\text{4}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{ = }{{\text{4}}^{\text{5-5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8-5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{b}}^{\text{3-2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{4}}^{\text{0}}}{{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{1}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}\text{b}$

Hence, we can write $\dfrac{{{\text{4}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{8}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{3}}}}{{{\text{4}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{5}}}{{\text{b}}^{\text{2}}}}$ as ${{\text{a}}^{\text{3}}}\text{b}$.

We know the law of exponents ${{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m+n}}}$.

$\Rightarrow {{\left( {{\text{2}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\left( {{\text{2}}^{\text{3+1}}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\left( {{\text{2}}^{\text{4}}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

We know the law of exponents ${{\left( {{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}} \right)}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ n}}}$.

$\Rightarrow {{\left( {{\text{2}}^{\text{4}}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{2}}^{\text{4 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{2}}^{\text{8}}}$

Hence, we can write ${{\left( {{\text{2}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$ as ${{\text{2}}^{\text{8}}}$.

3. Say true or false and justify your answer:

i. $\text{10 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{11}}}\text{ = 10}{{\text{0}}^{\text{11}}}$

Ans: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

LHS: It is given $\text{10 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{11}}}$.

We know the law of exponents ${{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m+n}}}$.

$\therefore \text{10 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{11}}}\text{ = 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{1+11}}}\text{ = 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{12}}}$

RHS: It is given $\text{10}{{\text{0}}^{\text{11}}}$.

We have obtained that $\text{LHS }\ne \text{ RHS}$

Hence, the statement is false.

ii. ${{\text{2}}^{\text{3}}}\text{  }{{\text{5}}^{\text{2}}}$

Ans: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

LHS: It is given ${{\text{2}}^{\text{3}}}$.

$\therefore {{\text{2}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 = 8}$

RHS: It is given ${{\text{5}}^{\text{2}}}$.

$\therefore {{\text{5}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 5 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 5 = 25}$

We have obtained that $\text{LHS  < RHS}$

Hence, the statement is false.

iii. ${{\text{2}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{6}}^{\text{5}}}$

Ans: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

$\therefore {{\text{6}}^{\text{5}}}\text{ = 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 6 = 7776}$

We have obtained that $\text{LHS }\ne \text{ RHS}$

Ans: The given statement is true.

Explanation:

LHS: It is given ${{\text{3}}^{\text{0}}}$.

$\therefore {{\text{3}}^{\text{0}}}\text{ = 1}$

RHS: It is given $\text{100}{{\text{0}}^{\text{0}}}$.

$\therefore \text{100}{{\text{0}}^{\text{0}}}\text{ = 1}$

We have obtained that $\text{LHS = RHS}$

Hence, the statement is true.

4. Express each of the following as a product of prime factors only in exponential form:

i. $\text{108 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 192}$

Ans: We have to express $\text{108 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 192}$ in exponential form.

$\text{108 = 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 3 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 3 = }{{\text{2}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know the law of exponents ${{\text{a}}^{\text{m}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{a}}^{\text{n}}}\text{ = }{{\text{a}}^{\text{m+n}}}$.

$\therefore \text{108 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 192 = }{{\text{2}}^{\text{2+6}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{3+1}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{108 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 192 = }{{\text{2}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}$

Hence, we can write $\text{108 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 192}$ as ${{\text{2}}^{\text{8}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{3}}^{\text{4}}}$.

$\therefore \text{729 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 64 = }{{\text{3}}^{\text{6}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}$

Hence, we can write $\text{729 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 64}$ as ${{\text{3}}^{\text{6}}}\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }{{\text{2}}^{\text{6}}}$.

iv. $\text{768}$

Ans: We have to express $\text{768}$ in exponential form.
