Learning Outcomes 57 x 59 67 6-2 (43)2
“power” 36 “exponent” or “power” “base”
Rule #1 If we multiply two powers with the same base, we add their exponents. ab x ac = ab+c
46 42
Rule #2 If we divide two powers with the same base, we subtract the second exponent from the first. ab / ac = ab-c
Rule #3 If we raise a power to a power, we multiply the two exponents. (ab)c = ab xc
Group Challenges ab x ac = ab+c ab / ac = ab-c (ab)c = ab xc
Group Challenges x = 40 x = 93 35 x = 5-1 42= 2x
