Study Notes

Exponents and Scientific Notation

  • Rules for Exponents:
    • (xa)(xb) = xa+b
    • (xa)b = xab
    • x0 = 1
    • xa/xb = xa-b

Evaluate Expressions

  • 52 = 25
  • (-3)3 = -27
  • -24 = -24
  • 60 = 60
  • 23 x (-3)2 = 8 x 9 = 72
  • -16 = -16
  • 3-2 = 1/9
  • (-2)-3 = 1/(-8) = -1/8
  • (1/2)2 = 1/4
  • (-3)2 = 9

Simplify Using Exponents

  • 42 x 45 = 47
  • 24 x 8 = 24 x 23= 27
  • 86 / 84 = 82
  • (53)2 = 56
  • (-5)3 x (-5)-6 = (-5)-3 = -1/125
  • 25 / 53= 25/125 = 1/5
  • (42 x 34)5 = 410 x 320
  • (32)-2 = 3-4 = 1/81

Perform Indicated Operations

  • (4x2y3)(-2x5y2) = -8x7y5
  • (-3x4y2)2 = 9x8y4
  • (12x8y3)/(-3x10y) = -4x-2y2 = -4y2/x2

Scientific Notation

  • a x 10b where 1 ≤ a < 10
  • To multiply numbers in scientific notation, multiply the coefficients and add the exponents.
  • To divide numbers in scientific notation, divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents.
  • When adding or subtracting numbers in scientific notation, the powers of 10 must be the same.

Write Numbers in Scientific Notation

  • 45,000,000 = 4.5 x 107
  • 0.00034 = 3.4 x 10-4
  • 870,000 = 8.7 x 105
  • 0.0000016 = 1.6 x 10-6

Write Numbers in Standard Form

  • 5.24 x 104 = 52,400
  • 3.02 x 10-5 = 0.0000302
  • 7.3 x 108 = 730,000,000

Perform Indicated Operations in Scientific Notation

  • (5.25 x 102) x (4 x 103) = 21 x 105 = 2.1 x 106

  • (3.4 x 108) x (8 x 105) = 27.2 x 1013 = 2.72 x 1014

  • (1.2 x 105) + (5.35 x 106) = 12000 + 5350000 = 5362000 = 5.362 x 106

  • (8.9 x 105)(6.5 x 106) = 57.85 x 1011 = 5.785 x 1012

  • (3.5 x 109)/(1.4 x 10-3) = 2.5 x 109-(-3) = 2.5 x 1012

  • (5.1 x 1012) – (6.3 × 109) = 5100000000000 - 6300000000 = 5.037 x 1012

World Population and Ants

  • Approximately 7 x 109 people
  • 2.4 x 104 ants per human
  • Total ants: 1.68 x 1014

Mars and Jupiter Distance

  • Mars: 54,000,000 km = 5.4 x 107 km
  • Jupiter: 6.3 x 108 km
  • Difference: 5.76 x 108 km.

Equations and Inequalities

  • Solve for the variables of the given equations, using algebraic methods.

Graphing

  • y = 3 is parallel to the x-axis
  • Equation of a line parallel to the x-axis and through (2, 6) is y = 6
  • Equation of a line with undefined slope through (4, -6) is x = 4
  • Point (4, 5) lies on the line y = 1/2x - 6 is verified by substitution.

Systems of Equations

  • Solving systems of equation algebraically: substitution or elimination methods
  • Solving systems of equation graphically.
  • Determining coordinate points on graphs from different equations.
