 BELLWORK
Match the following equations with the correct property:
1) wy = yw a)Associative Prop of Add

2) 2(xy) = (2x)y b)Commutative Prop of Mult

3) (7 + 6t) + 2r = 7 + (6t + 2r) c) Commutative Prop of Add

4) 5w + 2w +10 = (5w + 2w) +10 d) Associative Prop of Mult

Properties of Exponents
8/21/15
STUDENT OUTCOME
The student will….recall and use the
Rules of Exponents to simplify
expressions.
Homework: Worksheets - “What Was
Unusual About the Horse-breeding
Magazine” AND “What Happens to a Dog
Who Eats Table Scraps?”
PRODUCT RULE- When MULTIPLYING with
LIKE BASES, you keep the base and add the
exponents.

QUOTIENT RULE - When DIVIDING with LIKE

BASES, you keep the base and SUBTRACT the
exponents .
POWER RULE - When RAISING A POWER
TO A POWER, you MULTIPLY the exponents.

NEGATIVE RULE - When you have a

NEGATIVE exponent, you make it a fraction, flip it,
and make the exponent POSITIVE.
POWER OF A PRODUCT - When you
RAISE A PRODUCT to the same power, apply the
power to EACH factor then simplify.

POWER OF A QUOTIENT - When you

RAISE A QUOTIENT to the same power, apply the
power to EACH factor then simplify.
ZERO EXPONENT - When you have ZERO
as an exponent, the answer is 1! ALWAYS
