1-3 Exponents A number is in exponential form when it is written with a base and an exponent. 73737373 Base Exponent = 7 7 7= 343 An exponent tells how many times a number called the base is used as a factor.

1-3 Exponents A phone tree is used to contact families at Paul’s school. The secretary calls 4 families. Then each family calls 4 other families, and so on. How many families will be notified during the fourth round of calls? 1 Understand the Problem The answer will be the number of families called in the 4th round. Highlight the important information: The secretary calls 4 families. Each family calls 4 families. Additional Example 3: Problem Solving Application
13
1-3 Exponents You can draw a diagram to see how many calls are in each round. 2 Make a Plan Secretary 1st round–4 calls 2nd round–16 calls
14
1-3 Exponents Solve 3 Notice that in each round, the number of calls is a power of 4. 1st round: 4 calls = 4 = 4 1 2nd round: 16 calls = 4 4 = 4 2 So during the 4th round, there will be 4 4 calls. 4 4 = 4 4 4 4 = 256 During the 4th round of calls, 256 families will be notified. Look Back4 Drawing a diagram helps you visualize the pattern, but the numbers become too large for a diagram after the third round of calls. Solving this problem by using exponents is faster and easier.

1-3 Exponents You Try! Example 3 A phone tree is used to contact families at Paul’s school. The secretary calls 3 families. Then each family calls 3 other families, and so on. How many families will be notified during the sixth round of calls? During the 6th round of calls, 729 families will be notified.
