Powers and Roots Rules

Here are all the formulas you need in order to succeed in the course. Mastering these formulas will save you a lot of time in solving exercises and will help you avoid unnecessary calculation errors 🙂

1. Multiplication:

{(xy)}^n=x^n y^n

x^n x^m=x^{n+m}

2. Division:

{(\frac{x}{y})}^n=\frac{x^n}{y^n}

\frac{x^n}{x^m}=x^{n-m}

3. Powers:

{(x^n)}^m=x^{nm}

x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}

x^0=1

4. Roots:

x^{\frac{n}{m}}=\sqrt[m]{x^n}

x^{\frac{n}{m}}=\sqrt[m]{x^n}

\sqrt[n]{xy}=\sqrt[n]{x}\sqrt[n]{y}

\sqrt[n]{\frac{x}{y}}=\frac{\sqrt[n]{x}}{\sqrt[n]{y}}
