VOCABULARY Monomial- A number, a variable, or a product of a number and one or more variables Example: x2, 3m, 6v9 Constant- A monomial that is a real number Example: 10, 8, 3
Identify the Monomials • 10 e) –x + 5 • f + 24 f) 28abcd2 • h2 g) xyz2 • j 2 h) mp n
NOTE WHEN A VARIABLE IS IN THE DENOMINATOR IT IS NOT CONSIDERED A MONOMIAL
Product of Powers Product of Powers- amap = am+p Examples:
Power of Power Power of a Power- (am)n = am •n
Power of a Product Power of a Product- (ab)m = ambm
Simplify Express the area of the circle as a monomial.
You Try • Express the area of a square with sides of length 3xy2 as a monomial. • Express the area of a triangle with a height of 4a and a base of 5ab2 as a monomial.
Simplifying Expressions • Each variable base appears exactly once • There are no power of power • All fractions are in simplest form
