2
Learning Goal: using exponents to represent repeated multiplication Learning Goal
3
When numbers are repeated in multiplication, we can write them in exponent form We can write 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 as 2 4 2 is the base 4 is the exponent 2 4 is the power We say “2 to the power of 4” Exponents 2424 Base Exponent Power
4
Square number: a power with an exponent 2 (ex, 4 2 ) Here are three ways to write 16: Standard form: 16 Expanded form: 4 x 4 Exponent form: 4 2 Cube number: a power with an exponent 3 (ex, 4 3 ) Here are three ways to write 64: Standard form: 64 Expanded form: 4 x 4 x 4 Exponent form: 4 3 Square and Cube Numbers
5
Write in exponent form 1.6 x 6 1.5 x 5 x 5 1.32 Example 1
6
Write in exponent form 1.6 x 6 = 6 2 1.5 x 5 x 5 = 5 3 1.32 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 2 5 Solutions
7
Write in expanded form and standard form 1.3 5 1.7 4 Example 2
8
Write in expanded form and standard form 1.3 5 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 (expanded) = 243 (standard) 2.7 4 = 7 x 7 x 7 x 7 (expanded) = 2401 (standard) Solutions
