  1. Algebra 7.1 Integer Exponents

  2. Learning Targets Language Goal • Students should be able to read and say simplified exponents. Math Goal • Students should be able to simplify expressions containing zero and integer exponents. Essential Question • What is a number to the negative power and where would you see it in the world around you?

  3. Warm-up

  4. Review Vocabulary • Who can remember what we call this number? • What is the 4? • What is the 5?

  5. Review Vocabulary • Base: The number in a power that is used as a factor. The 4 in our example. • Exponent: The number that indicates how many times the base is used as a factor.

  6. Exploration • What does it mean for an exponent to be negative or 0? • Example: • Hint: Use the table to look for a pattern to figure it out! 1

  7. Zero Exponent • Any nonzero number raised to the zero power is 1. =1 =1

  8. Negative Exponent • Negative Exponent-A nonzero number raised to a negative exponent is equal to 1 divided by that number raised to the positive exponent.

  9. Chart Zero exponent- any nonzero # raised to the zero power is 1 Negative Exponent-A nonzero # raised to a negative exponent is equal to 1 divided by that # raised to the positive exponent.

  10. Example 1: Word Problems A. The diameter for the Model A Ford piston could vary by at most inch. Simplify this expression.

  11. Example 1: Word Problems B. One cup is gallons. Simplify this expression.

  12. Example 1: Word Problems C. A sand fly may have a wingspan up to meters. Simplify this expression.

  13. Example 2: Zero and Negative Exponents Simplify A. B. C.

  14. Example 2: Zero and Negative Exponents Simplify D. E.

  15. Example 3: Evaluating Expressions with Zero and negative Exponents. Evaluate each expression for the given value(s) of the variable(s). A. for x = 2 B.

  16. Example 3: Evaluating Expressions with Zero and negative Exponents. Evaluate each expression for the given value(s) of the variable(s). C. for p = 4 D. for a= -2 and b=6

  17. If you have an expression with a negative exponent in the denominator, it is equivalent to the same base with the opposite (positive) exponent in the numerator. • An expression is not simplified until this occurs.

  18. Example 4: Simplifying Expressions with Zero and Negative Exponents Simplify A. B. C.

  19. Example 4: Simplifying Expressions with Zero and Negative Exponents Simplify D. E. F.
