Mar 8, 2014 · Exponentiation is a correspondence between addition and multiplication. Think of a number line, with $0$ in the "middle", and tick marks at each integer. Moving a certain distance to …

Dec 18, 2023 · I was wondering why addition has one inverse (subtraction), multiplication has one inverse (division), but exponentiation has two (radication and logarithm). After a bit of thinking, I …

May 27, 2024 · I was taught my whole life that if I want to get rid of a root I should just do the inverse and ''exponentiate that with its index'' and now I just learn that roots aren't the inverse of …

Oct 3, 2014 · You know, like addition is the inverse operation of subtraction, vice versa, multiplication is the inverse of division, vice versa , square is the inverse of square root, vice versa. What's the in...
