1. Algebra 1 Warm Up

2. Lesson 10.3 Division Exponent Rules
Let’s Review
When you are adding variables: only the coefficient (the number in front) changes.
When you are multiplying variables: the coefficients and the exponent changes.

3. 1st Rule of Exponents 1st Rule of Exponents:
When ever the bases are multiplied together, you must ADD the exponents. Product of a Power
Example: = =

4. 2nd Rule of Exponents 2nd Rule of Exponents:
When you have an exponent raised to another exponent, you must multiply the exponents. Power to a Power!
Example: =

5. 3rd Rule of Exponents 3rd Rule of Exponents:
When you have a product raised to a power, all parts are raised to the power.
Example: =

6. What if we have dividing?

7. When dividing terms with exponents: Quotient of Powers
Rule #4
If the bases are the same, when you divide terms you subtract the exponents.
Example #1

8. Example #2

9. Example #3

10. Example #4

11. Example #5

12. You try these:

13. Find the mistake if one exists!
