Work Step by Step
a) The base is a and the exponent is n.
b) The $a^n$ can be seen as the English expression multiply a by itself n times.
$6^5=6*6*6*6*6$
c) This expression is simply the reciprocal of the same expression with out the negative sign.
$a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}$ $3^{-2}=1/9$
d) Any number raised to the power of zero is 1.
e) The expression $a^{m/n}$ is the $n$th root of the $m$th power. So $4^{3/2}=\sqrt {4^3}$
