An exponent is how many times your going to multiply your number by itself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im confused because it could mean four multiplied by itself once, or it could mean four not multiplied by itself...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An exponent of number 1 will always be that number...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, when x^2 you would do x times x but since its x^1 its just x
