Powers -3am •2an = -6am+n Multiplying Powers am •an = am+n Simplify the following problems COMPLETELY! Before you begin, remember... You cannot leave your final answer with any zero or negative exponents! You should not see the same variable two or more times! To multiply powers with the same base, Pick: add, subtract, multiply, or divide you must write the base and the exponents x2 x3 x4 . . . x-1 = x x-3 = x x5 = x = 2n . 4n = 6n 6n2 8n 8n2 15y6 8y6 5y . 3y6 = 15y7 8y7 Drag the correct answers to the blocks. 3t4 -3t2 3t3 -3t4 . . . . -2t2 = 2t-2 = -2t-2 = 2t = -6t6 ? -6t5 ? -6t ? -6 ? 9x2 • 2x-2 18x 18 18 18x-4 x4 -3t3 • -2t 6t4 -5t4 6t3 5t3 7n6(3n5) 10n30 21n30 10n11 21n11 -5z3• 7z4 -35z7 -35z12 35z12 2z7 2xy4 • x6y2 2x6y6 2x7y6 2x6y8 2x7y8 4a0• 5a3•-2a5 -40 -40a9 -20a8 -40a8 -4k2 • 7k-1 -28 k 28 k2 -28k 1 28k 6mn-4 • m5n2 6m5n-2 6m6n2 6m5 6m6 n2 n2 a-3b2 • a-4b-1 a12b a-7b a12 b a7 b2 -b3c • 5b-4c 5c -5c2 b7 b -5c2 c2 5b b7 9m4n-3p • -m2n3p-5 -9m6n m6n0 9p4 p4 -9m8 -9m6 p5 p4 |
