• x^{(m + n)} = (x^m) ⋅ (xⁿ)
• a + ((-1) ⋅ a) = 0
• x⁰ = 1

• if m + ((-1) ⋅ m) = 0, then x^{(m + ((-1) ⋅ m))} = x⁰

• if the following are true:

  • a = b
  • b = c

  then a = c

• if the following are true:

  • a = b
  • a = c

  then b = c

• if the following are true:

  • a = b ⋅ c
  • not (b = 0)

  then c = a / b
