*Chapter 1.1 - Index Laws*: What is a base? - Answer>>The
number having the power applied to it
*Chapter 1.1 - Index Laws*: What is an index, power or
exponent? - Answer>>The operation being applied to the base
*Chapter 1.1 - Index Laws*: What is the result when multiplying
the same bases of different powers? - Answer>>You add the
powers
E.g a^m x a^n = a^m+n

same base of different powers? - Answer>>You subtract the
powers
E.g a^m / a^n = a^m-n
*Chapter 1.1 - Index Laws*: What is the result when applying a
power to a base with a power already? - Answer>>You multiply
the powers
E.g (a^m)^n = a^mn
