  3. Rational Exponents – exponents that are fractions or decimals that terminate or repeat. Use your calculator to evaluate each expression. a) b) c) What do you notice? What is another way to write each of these?

  4. Example 1: Write each expression in radical form. a. b. c.

  5. Example 2: Write each radical in exponential form. a. b.

  6. nthRoot Index: the number of the root being taken; n Radicand: the number inside the root; b Another word for a root is a radical Examples: is the 3rdroot; index = _____ and radicand = _____ is the 4th root; index = _____ and radicand = _____ is the square root; index = _____ and radicand = _____
