Writing Numbers in Scientific Notation
Slide 12 / 234
Writing Large Numbers in
Scientific Notation
Slide 13 / 234
Here are some different ways of writing 6,500.
6,500 = 6.5 thousand6.5 thousand = 6.5 x 1,0006.5 x 1,000 = 6.5 x 103
which means that
6,500 = 6.5 x 103
6,500 is the standard form of the number6.5 x 103 is scientific notation
These are two ways of writing the same number.
Scientific Notation
Slide 14 / 234
6.5 x 103 isn't a lot more convenient than 6,500.
But let's do the same thing with 7,400,000,000which is equal to 7.4 billionwhich is 7.4 x 1,000,000,000which is 7.4 x 109
Besides being shorter than 7,400,000,000, its a lot easier to keep track of the zeros in scientific notation.
And we'll see that the math gets a lot easier as well.
Scientific Notation
Slide 15 / 234
Scientific notation expresses numbers as the product of:
a coefficient and 10 raised to some power.
3.78 x 106
The coefficient is always greater than or equal to one, and less than 10.
In this case, the number 3,780,000 is expressed in scientific notation.
Scientific Notation
Slide 16 / 234
Express 870,000 in scientific notation
1. Write the number without the comma.
2. Place the decimal so that the first number will be less than 10 but greater than or equal to 1.
3. Count how many places you had to move the decimal point. This becomes the exponent of 10.
4. Drop the zeros to the right of the right-most non-zero digit.

Comparing Numbers Written in
Scientific Notation
Slide 60 / 234
First, compare the exponents.
If the exponents are different, the coefficients don't matter; they have a smaller effect.
Whichever number has the larger exponent is the larger number.

Addition and Subtraction with Scientific Notation
Numbers in scientific notation can only be added or subtracted if they have the same exponents.
If needed, an intermediary step is to rewrite one of the numbers so it has the same exponent as the other.
Slide 91 / 234
Addition and Subtraction
This is the simplest example of addition
4.0 x 103 + 5.3 x 103 =
Since the exponents are the same (3), just add the coefficients.
4.0 x 103 + 5.3 x 103 = 9.3 x 103
This just says that if you add 4.0 thousand and 5.3 thousand to get 9.3 thousand.
Slide 92 / 234
Addition and Subtraction
This problem is slightly more difficult because you need to add one extra step at the end.
8.0 x 103 + 5.3 x 103 =
Since the exponents are the same (3), just add the coefficients.
4.0 x 103 + 5.3 x 103 = 13.3 x 103
But that is not proper form, since 13.3 > 10; it should be written as 1.33 x 104
Slide 93 / 234
Addition and Subtraction 8.0 x 104 + 5.3 x 103 =
This requires an extra step at the beginning because the exponents are different. We have to either convert the first number to 80 x 103 or the second one to 0.53 x 104.
The latter approach saves us a step at the end.
8.0 x 104 + 0.53 x 104 = 8.53 x 104
Once both numbers had the same exponents, we just add the coefficient.
Note that when we made the exponent 1 bigger, that's makes the number 10x bigger; we had to make the coefficient 1/10 as large to keep the number the same.

To take the square root of a variable rewrite its exponent as the square of a power.
Square roots need to be positive answers. Even powered answered, like above, are positive even if the variables negative. The same cannot be said if the answer has an odd power. When you take a square root an the answer has an odd power, put the answer inside of absolute value signs.

Q: If a square root cancels a square, what cancels a cube?
A: A cube root.
Slide 122 / 234
The volume (V) of a cube is found by cubing its side length (s).
V = s3
V = s3
V = 43 = 4 4 4
V = 64 cubic units or 64 units3
4 units
The volume (V) of a cube is labeled as cubic units, or units3, because to find the volume, you need to cube its side.
Slide 123 / 234
A cube with sides 3 units would have a volume of 27 u3 because 33=27.
If a cube has an volume of 64 u3 what is the length of one side?
Need to find a number when multiplied by itself three times will equal 64.
4 4 4 = 64, so 4 units is the length of a side.

Simplifying Radicals
is said to be a rational answer because their is a perfect square that equals the radicand.
If a radicand doesn't have a perfect square that equals it, the root is said to be irrational.
Slide 150 / 234
The square root of the following numbers is rational or irrational?
Slide 151 / 234
The commonly excepted form of a radical is called the "simplified form".
To simplify a non-perfect square, start by breaking the radicand into factors and then breaking the factors into factors and so on until there
only prime numbers are left. this is called the prime factorization.

Simplifying Roots of Variables
Divide the index into the exponent. The number of times the index goes into the exponent becomes the power on the outside of the
radical and the remainder is the power of the radicand.
Slide 166 / 234
Simplifying Roots of VariablesWhat about the absolute value signs?
An Absolute Value sign is needed if the index is even, the starting power of the variable is even and the answer is an odd power on the outside.

Rationalizing the Denominator
Mathematicians don't like radicals in the denominators of fractions. When there is one, the denominator is said to be irrational. The method used to rid the denominator is termed "rationalizing the
denominator".Which of these has a rational denominator?
RationalDenominator
IrrationalDenominator
Slide 200 / 234
If a denominator needs to be rationalized, start by finding its conjugate.A conjugate is another polynomial that when the conjugate and the denominator are multiplied, no more irrational term.
The conjugate for a monomial with a square root is the same square root.Example has a conjugate of . Why? Because
The conjugate of a binomial with square roots is the opposite operation between the terms.Example has a conjugate of . Why? Because
