GGG - Patterns with Exponents

Simplify the following
 $7^4\cdot7^{-4}$  

(a)  

Anything raised to the zero power (except zero) is equal to what?

(a)  

The rule for negative exponents (the apartment rule) says that if an exponent is negative (unhappy) move it to the other floor (downstairs or upstairs) and make the exponent (a)   .

Evaluate the expression using the quotient rule.

• 2¹⁴ z¹³
• 2²/z⁷
• 2¹⁴/ z⁷
• 2² z⁷

• 
• 
• 3x⁴y

• 

According to exponent rules, when we multiply two powers with the same base we _______ the exponents.

Example: c⁶ ⋅ c⁴

• add

• subtract

• multiply

• divide

Anything (other than zero) raised to a power of zero is always:

• 0

• 1

• itself

• negative

• $\frac{27x^{15}z^3}{y^6}$

• $\frac{9x^{15}z^3}{y^6}$

• $27x^8yz^4$

• $\frac{27x^8z^4}{y}$

True or False: 

• True 
• False
