Exponents - Power Law - Prime Base with Variable Power to Exponent Base with Unknown Power (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on applying the power law of exponents across various problems. It deals primarily with solving for unknown exponents when given equations involving prime bases raised to variable powers and exponent bases. These problems require understanding and manipulating exponential forms to deduce the missing exponents in their simplest, reduced form. The set includes examples with numerical and variable bases, developing skills in algebraic manipulation related to exponents. The context for these practice problems is part of an introductory unit on the power laws of exponents.
