How do I format an exponent?

Hello Jellybeans,

I thought I might be able to help out with the ever annoying exponent problem. Instead of typing 48x^2, you can use a little html code to create the exponent. To do this, just type 48x2 and then click on the 'Edit Html' tab at the top right of the composing box. Type the code ^{before the exponent and the code} after the exponent.This will raise it up. I have to give credit to Danny T. who showed me how to do this. That's the beauty of blogging - everyone is teaching everyone :) If you have a few spare moments, why not pop by some of the pre-calculus or consumer math sites to see what you will be learning next year. While you are there, leave some encouraging feedback for them. They would love to hear from you.
