Question 5.
Express 8^-4 as a power with the base 2.
Solution:
We have 8 = 2 × 2 × 2 = 2³
8^-4 = (2³)^-4 = 2^3×(-4) = 2^-12

Question 6.

Question 7.
Find the value of k if (-2)^k+1 × (-2)³ = (-2)⁷
Solution:
(-2)^k+1 × (-2)³ = (-2)⁷
⇒ (-2)^k+1+3 = (-2)⁷
⇒ (-2)^k+4 = (-2)⁷
⇒ k + 4 = 7
⇒ k = 3
Hence, k = 3.

Question 17.
Find x so that (-5)^x+1 × (-5)⁵ = (-5)⁷ (NCERT Exemplar)
Solution:
(-5)^x+1 × (-5)⁵ = (-5)⁷
(-5)^x+1+5 = (-5)⁷ {a^m × aⁿ = a^m+n}
(-5)^x+6 = (-5)⁷
On both sides, powers have the same base, so their exponents must be equal.
Therefore, x + 6 = 7
x = 7 – 6 = 1
x = 1.
