Glencoe Chapter 1 Real Numbers Lesson 4 Powers of Monomials Power to power Glencoe Chapter 1 Real Numbers Lesson 4 Powers of Monomials

Objective Use the Laws of Exponents to find powers of monomials. Previously: We used Laws of Exponents to multiply and divide monomials. NOW: We will use Laws of Exponents to find power to power. Next: We will use Laws of Exponents to evaluate expressions with negative exponents.

Mathematical background Sometimes the rules for the Power of a Power and the Power of a Product are combined into one rule: (ambn)p = ampbnp In general, to simplify an expression involving monomials, write an equivalent expression in which each base appears exactly once, there are no powers of powers, and all fractions are in simplest form.

Example #1 22 22 22 Let start with a cube. How do we find the volume of a cube? V = Bh V = (s)(s)(s) V = s3 V = (22) (22) (22) V = (22)3 V = 26 22 22 22

Think-pair-share In the expression (84)3 what does the exponent 3 mean? What expression represents that situation? What is 4 + 4 + 4? What is another way to write 4 + 4 + 4 using multiplication? What is (84)3 simplified? What do you think the rule is? How is it written?  It means you use 84 as a factor three times.  84 • 84 • 84 12 4 • 3 812

Let’s try some together ( 5 2 ) 8 ( 𝑘 7 ) 5 ( 𝑎 3 ) 7

Example #2 What do you think will happen when we raise 3m2 to the third power? (3 𝑚 2 ) 3 ( 4𝑝 3 ) 4 (3 𝑐 4 ) 3

challenge Simplify: [(73)4]5 Simplify: ( 1 2 𝑥 𝑦 2 ) 2 [(−2𝑥 ) 3 ] 2
