- What are we learning in math class today?
- We are learning about Exponent Rules!
- I dont understand the lesson. What is an exponent?
- The exponent determines how many times the base multiplies by itself, so 4^2 is 4x4.
- To start, there is a base, which is the number underneath the exponent. The exponent is the number above it
- What is the Product and Quotient Rule?
- Product Rule and Quotient Rule
- The quotient rule states that when dividing two numbers with the same base, you subtract the exponents
- The product rule states that when the base of two exponenets are the same, you keep the base, and add the exponents
- What is the Power to Power Rule and the Zero Power Rule?
- Power to Power Rule and Zero Power Rule
- The Zero Power Rule states that anything to the power of zero is equal to one, as long the base is not zero
- The Power to Power rule says that when one exponent is raised to the power of another, you multiply the exponents together.
- What is the negative exponent rule and how do you convert from radical notation to exponential and vice versa?
- The radicand is the base of exponeital notation. The index is the denomitar, and the exponent of the radicand is the numerator.
- The negative exponent rule states that when a base has a negative exponent, the base and exponent go to the denominator. For example, 2^-3 = 1/2^3, or 1/9
- What if instead of bases being the same, the exponent was the same and the exponenets were different?
- Well, for multiplication, you would mutiply the bases and keep the exponent.
- For division, you just divide the bases, and keep the exponents
