Answer:
The true statements are
3/5 is the base
3 is the exponent
(3/5)³ = 3/5 × 3/5 × 3/5
(3/5)³ = 27/125
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a and b be any integer, given the expression;
[tex]a^b[/tex]
a is the base
b is the exponent
Similarly if we have;
[tex]a^3[/tex]
This means we can multiply a in three places as shown;
[tex]a^3 = a \times a \times a[/tex]
Applying this to the given expression
[tex](\frac{3}{5} )^3 = \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{3}{5} \\Also\\(\frac{3}{5} )^3 = \frac{3 \times 3 \times 3}{5 \times 5 \times 5} \\(\frac{3}{5} )^3 = \frac{27}{125}[/tex]
The base value will be 3/5 and the exponent is 3
