Base in Mathematics
In mathematics, the term "base" refers to the number that is raised to a certain power in an exponential expression. The base is the number that is multiplied by itself a certain number of times, as indicated by the exponent. For example, in the expression 53, the base is 5 and the exponent is 3. This means that 5 is multiplied by itself 3 times.
Study Guide for Understanding Bases:
- Definition: Understand the definition of a base as the number being raised to a power in an exponential expression.
- Exponential Expressions: Practice identifying the base and the exponent in various exponential expressions.
- Properties: Learn about the properties of bases, such as the product of powers, power of a power, and power of a product.
- Examples: Work through examples of simplifying and evaluating exponential expressions to become familiar with using bases in calculations.
- Applications: Explore real-world applications of exponential growth and decay, where understanding bases is crucial.
