Definition of For any real number b and any integer n > 1, except when b < 0 and n is even

Examples:

Examples:

Definition of Rational Exponents For any nonzero number b and any integers m and n with n > 1, except when b < 0 and n is even

NOTE: There are 3 different ways to write a rational exponent

Examples:

Simplifying Expressions No negative exponents No fractional exponents in the denominator No complex fractions (fraction within a fraction) The index of any remaining radical is the least possible number

Get a common denominator - this is going to be our index Examples: Simplify each expression Get a common denominator - this is going to be our index Rewrite as a radical

Remember we add exponents Examples: Simplify each expression Remember we add exponents

To rationalize the denominator we want an integer exponent Examples: Simplify each expression To rationalize the denominator we want an integer exponent
