to understand the meaning of an expression like (𝑏4)2(b4)2to be able to simplify expressions in which the index is zeroto be able to simplify expressions involving powers of powersto be able to expand expressions where a product is taken to a power, e.g. (𝑎𝑏)3


consider what the expanded form of (𝑎3)4(a3)4 would be:

(𝑎3)4===𝑎3×𝑎3×𝑎3×𝑎3𝑎×𝑎×𝑎 × 𝑎×𝑎×𝑎 × 𝑎×𝑎×𝑎× 𝑎×𝑎×𝑎𝑎12 (a3)4=a3×a3×a3×a3=a×a×a×a×a×a×a×a×a×a×a×a=a12

similarly:

(𝑏4)2===𝑏4×𝑏4𝑏×𝑏×𝑏×𝑏 × 𝑏×𝑏×𝑏×𝑏𝑏8(b4)2=b4×b4=b×b×b×b×b×b×b×b=b8

this leads us to an index law: (𝑎𝑚)𝑛=𝑎𝑚𝑛(am)n=amn.
