Multiple Choice

USE PREVIOUS SLIDE:

Which of the following best describes what an exponent is --> in a number like 2³?

• The number of times the base is multiplied by itself

• The number you multiply it by (example: 2x3)

• The number you subtract from all decimals

• The numbers you cancel out

Multiple Choice

(USE PREVIOUS SLIDE):

We also discovered on the last slide that:

• When multiplying, ADD exponents.

• When dividing, ADD exponents.

• Zero exponent never equals 1.

• Negative exponent means to only subtract.

Multiple Choice

(USE PREVIOUS SLIDE):

Lastly -- we discovered with exponent equations that:

• When multiplying, subtract exponents.

• When dividing, add exponents then divide again.

• Zero exponent always equals 4.

• Negative exponent makes a fraction (reciprocal).

Multiple Choice

(USE PREVIOUS SLIDE):

When we divide exponents with the same base, we:

• Mutiply only the numerator.

• Add all exponents that are given.

• Subtract the exponent in the denominator.

• Divide as an exponent means to only multiply.

Multiple Choice
