Exponents Standard:
Exponent: Tells how many times a base is used as a factor. 2³ = 2 ∙ 2 ∙ 2 Exponent Base Power
Common Exponents Squared: anything to the second power Example: 9² is 9 squared Cubed: anything to the third power Example: 10³ is 10 cubed
Zero Power: anything to the zero power is ONE! Example: 8⁰ = 1 (-24)⁰ = 1 2,500,050⁰ = 1
Problem of the DAY! What is the value of 7⁰? • 1 • 0 • 7 • 1/7 Anything to the Power of Zero is ONE!
Remember! The exponent tells you how many times you will multiply the same number by itself! Even when it is negative! For example: (-5)³ = (-5) ∙ (-5) ∙ (-5) = 125
Negative numbers When the negative is inside the parenthesis, then it is the same negative number multiplied by itself When it is outside, you add the negative at the end!
Example: Write using exponents: a ∙ b ∙ b ∙ b ∙ a • a b • a b • a b • aabbb 3 2 2 3 2 2
And again! x ∙ y ∙ x ∙ x ∙ x∙ x ∙ y ∙ x • x y • x y • 6x2y • x y 6 2 5 2 5 2
And again! Simplify (ab)³ using exponents. • ababab • a³b³ • 3a3b • a²b²
Negative Exponents 1 a = -n n a Example:
Problem of the Day (Thursday) 4 What is (-12) ? • 20736 • -20736 • 48 • -48
Review 4 -2 What is 5 ? a. -25 b. 25 c. 1 d. 1 25 -25
Review 5 What is 3x ∙ 3x ∙ 3x? • 3x³ • 27x • 9x • 27x³
Multiplying Exponents To multiply numbers or variables with the same base, add the exponents Example: 3³ ∙ 3² = 3 ∙ 3 ∙ 3 ∙ 3 ∙ 3 = 3 = 3 = 243 (3+2) 5
Dividing Exponents When dividing exponents, you subtract! 7 3 3² (7-2) 3 = 3 5
And again! 99 Solve (-7) (-7) 98 • -7 • 1 • 7 • 7 97
And again! 4 Solve w w 6 • w² • -2w • w • 1 2 w²
Exponents Raised to a Power Example: (2⁵)² *Multiply the exponents

Problem of the Day (Tuesday) Write the number 124,000,000 in scientific notation. • 1.24 x 10 • 124 x 10 • 1.24 x 10 • 12.4 x 10 8 6 6 7
Problem of the Day (Tuesday) Write the following using a positive exponent: 6 ∙ 6 a. 6³ b. 1_ 6³ c. 1_ 6 d. 6 2 -5 5 5
Why do we use it? Scientific notation is a way of writing extremely small or large numbers in a way that is easier.
Scientific Notation: A single digit (greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10) multiplied by a power of ten Example: 37,000,000 in scientific notation 3.7 x 10 7
The other way around 1.55 x 10 in standard form 1,550,000 6
Write the number 124,000,000 in scientific notation. • 1.24 x 10 • 124 x 10 • 1.24 x 10 • 12.4 x 10 8 6 6 7
