Exponents and Order of Operations Section 1.7 Exponents and Order of Operations
Exponents A shorthand way to show how many times a number, called the base, is multiplied times itself, called the exponent / power. be = b * b * b * b …
Example Simplify 35
Example Simplify 43
Example Simplify 27
Order of Operation A collection of rules that tells us which procedures to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. Rules Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Parentheses and Exponents
Order of Operations P E M D A S
Example Simplify using order of operations, (one step per line per point) 43 - 62
Example Simplify using order of operations, (one step per line per point) 28 ÷ 7(2) – 3
Example Simplify using order of operations, (one step per line per point) [ 3 + 2 ( 8 + 5 * 2 / 5 ) – 9 ]
Example Simplify using order of operations, (one step per line per point) 10 - ( 4 * 2 – 6)² - 2(3)
