7.2a Warm-Up 1. 150 = 52(?) 2. x5 = (?)2(x) 3. 3a3b4 = (?)3(3b) 6 ab Find the missing factor: 1. 150 = 52(?) 2. x5 = (?)2(x) 3. 3a3b4 = (?)3(3b) 6 ab x2
7.2a Multiplying and Dividing Radical Expressions Objective: To learn how to multiply and divided radical expressions. ================================================ Property: Multiplying Radical Expressions n n n n n If a and b are real numbers, then a • b = ab
Multiply. Simplify if possible. Example 1: Multiply. Simplify if possible. 3 3 a. 3 ● 12 b. -16 ● 4 c. -4 ● 16 -64 3 -64 36 Not Possible 3 (-4)3 6 -4
Multiply. Simplify if possible. On white board: Multiply. Simplify if possible. 3 b. -9 ● 3 a. 4 ● 9 3 -27 36 3 (-3)3 6 -3
Simplify each expression. Example 2: Simplify each expression. 3 a. 50x5 b. 54n8 (52 ● 2)(x2 ● x2 ● x) 3 (27 ● 2)(n3 ● n3 ● n2) 3 (33● 2)(n3 ● n3 ● n2) 5x2 2x 3n2 2n2 3
Simplify each expression. On White Board Simplify each expression. 3 b. 18x4 a. 20x4 (4 ● 5)(x2 ● x2 ) 3 (18)(x3 ● x) 2x2 5 x 18x 3
Example 3: Multiply and simplify. 25xy8 • 5x4y3 (5•5•5)(x5)(y11)
