An exponent is a number written above and to the right side of a value or number in math. The value or number is called the base, and the expression is read out as;
"Base raised to the power of exponent."
An example is given below;

In this example, 10 is the base and 3 is the EXPONENT.
The expression is now read out as,
"10 raised to the power of 3"
Note that even unknown values (such x as we commonly use in math) can also be an exponent or base. For example, we can have;

So basically, an exponent indicates the number of times a number is used to multiply itself.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 5 3/6 - 1 2/6 = 4 1/6
b. 8 9/12 - 5 10/12
7 21/12 - 5 10/12= 2 11/12
Answer: 1) (-2,0)
2) (0,2)

a) The possible values of X are as follows
X = {0,1,2,3,4}
P(x) = P(X=x)
b) The cdf in this case, as in the F(x), comes out to be a step function graph on the basis of values obtained from the probability mass function.
c) To find out the probability when more women are interviewed than me, add together the matrices from when value of X is equal to 2, 3 and 4 (from part a).
