Study Notes
Simplifying Algebraic Products and Quotients
- When multiplying terms with the same base, add the exponents.
- When dividing terms with the same base, subtract the exponents.
- When raising a term to a power, multiply the exponents.
Simplifying Algebraic Terms with Powers
- (e^2)^3 = e^(2 * 3) = e^6 (Example of simplifying a term raised to a power)
- (a^2 b^3)^4 = a^(2 * 4) b^(3 * 4) = a^8 b^12 (Example of simplifying a product of terms raised to a power)
- (3w^9 q^2)^4 = 3^4 w^(9 * 4) q^(2 * 4) = 81w^36 q^8 (Example of simplifying a term with a coefficient raised to a power)
Understanding Index Laws
- Index laws allow for simplification of expressions with exponents.
- Multiplication of terms with the same base: a^m x a^n = a^(m + n)
- Division of terms with the same base: a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m - n)
- Power of a power: (a^m)^n = a^(m x n)
Negative Exponents
- When raising -1 to a positive power, the result alternates between -1 and 1.
- (-1)^10 = 1 (Example of raising -1 to an even power)
- (-1)^7 = -1 (Example of raising -1 to an odd power)
Solving Equations with Exponents
- 8^x = 32 can be rewritten as 2^(3x) = 2^5. Therefore, 3x = 5 and x = 5/3.
- All equations in the form a^x = a^y have the same solution, x = y. This is because the base is the same.
