Combining exponents

So- today we learned about combining exponents. Basic rules: When you MULTIPLY two or more terms with the SAME BASE, ADD the exponents. When you DIVIDE two terms with the SAME BASE, SUBTRACT the exponents. That's pretty much it. The homework tonight is p 301 (10-25). IT should be simple. Drop me an email if you are lost, and I'll be happy to help you out. And don't forget to study for the dreaded slope quiz.


Remember: there are three ways to find slope: 1) rise/ run 2) slope formula and 3) slope-intercept form. If you know those three things, when to use them, and how to use them, you should be fine as fine can be.

Sleep well!
