What is the power of (q) in (12p^2q)?
Advertisement
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(1\)
In the expression \(12p^2q\), no exponent is written on \(q\). Therefore, \(q=q^1\), so the power of \(q\) is \(1\). The exponent \(2\) belongs to \(p\), not to \(q\). Exam tip: A variable with no written exponent always has exponent \(1\).
