The power (or exponent) of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.
It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number.
In this example the little "2" says to use 8 two times in a multiplication:
82 = 8 × 8 = 64
But power can also mean the result of using an exponent, so in the previous example "64" is also called the power.
Another example: 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
• the power is 4: "2 to the power 4 is 16"
• or we can say the power is the result of 16: "the 4th power of 2 is 16"
There are only three articles in the English language. One is definite, and two are indefinite. "The" is a definite article, while "a" and "an" are indefinite articles. To answer your question, you need to find the sentence that correctly uses "a" and "an". "A" is used if the word following it begins with a consonant, while "an" is used if the word following it begins with a vowel. Looking at the options provided in your particular problem, you can see that answer choice a is the only one that follows all of the above rules, making it the correct answer.
