Laws of Exponents Challenge

The video tutorial by Miss Jones covers the laws of exponents, starting with basic rules and moving on to solve increasingly complex problems. It explains how to handle zero and negative exponents, and demonstrates the application of these rules through various examples. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of understanding the order of operations when dealing with exponents and provides step-by-step solutions to multi-step problems.

What is the result of any number raised to the power of zero?

• 0

• Undefined

• 1

• The number itself

How do you make a negative exponent positive?

• Move it to the opposite part of the fraction

• Subtract it from zero

• Add it to a positive exponent of the same base

• Multiply by -1

How do you handle a variable to a negative exponent in a fraction?

• Move it to the denominator and change the sign

• Leave it as is

• Move it to the numerator and change the sign

• Multiply by -1

How do you simplify an expression with a negative exponent in the numerator?

• Move it to the denominator and keep the exponent negative

• Multiply the base by itself as indicated by the exponent

• Leave it in the numerator and change the exponent to positive

• Move it to the denominator and change the exponent to positive

What happens when you divide variables with the same base but different exponents?

• Subtract the exponents
