Properties of Exponents and Scientific Notation10/30/14
Different forms:Exponential Form: 45 x 43 or
Expanded Form:
45 x 43 = (4x4x4x4x4)(4x4x4)
=
Standard Form:
45 x 43 = 65,536
= 625
Multiplying with ExponentsRULE: When multiplying two exponential expressions with the same base, you ADD the exponents.
Example: 59 x 53 = 59+3 =512
The bases are the same (5), therefore you add the two exponents (9+3).
Dividing with ExponentsRULE: When dividing two exponential expressions with the same base, you SUBTRACT the exponents.
Example: = 38-6 = 32
The bases are the same (3), therefore, you can subtract the exponents (8-6).
Negative Exponents When DIVIDING two exponential expressions that will result in an expression with a negative exponent, you have two options:
1. Divide by subtracting the exponents.
2. Write the numerator and denominator in expanded form and simplify.
=
HINT: You must know your rules for operations with integers in order to be able to successfully solve problems with negative exponents!
Exponent of 0 and 1Anything raised to the power of zero (0) is always one (1).
70 = 1
•Anything raised to the power of one (1) is always itself.
71 = 7
Powers of PowersWhen an exponential expression is raised to a power, you multiply the two exponents.
(88)6 = 88x6 =848
(1011)2 =1011x2 =1022
Rules for Operations with Integers Addition (when the signs are the same)
1. Keep the Sign2. Add
Addition (when the signs are different)1. Keep the sign of the number with the greater absolute
value.2. Subtract the bigger number from the smaller number.
Subtraction (Think L-C-O…Leave, Change, Opposite)1. Change the subtraction sign to addition sign.2. Change the sign of the second number.3. Follow Addition Rules.
Multiplication/Division1. Positive & Positive = Positive2. Negative & Negative = Positive3. Positive & Negative = Negative4. Negative & Positive = Negative
Examples
(-9) + (-4) =
(-7) + 4 =
8 – 11 =
15 – (-7) =
(-5) x (-9) =
(-90) ÷ 3=
Scientific NotationScientific Notation: a way to write a number as a product of the number, a, and 10n, when 1≤ a <10 (a needs to be at least equal to 1 but less than 10) and n is an integer.
a x 10n 5.21 x 106
Standard Form: a way to write a number using a digit for each place.
591,157.21
Convert from Scientific Notation to Standard Form: 5.12 x 106
Step 1: Simplify 106
106 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 1,000,000
Step 2: Multiply by 5.12
5.12 x 1,000,000 = 5,120,000
Hint: The exponent tells you how many spaces to move the decimal. When converting from scientific notation to standard form and the exponent is positive, you move the decimal to the RIGHT and fill spaces with zeroes.
Convert from Standard Form to Scientific Notation: 860,000
Step 1: Identify the location of the decimal point in 860,000. In all whole numbers, the decimal point is at the end (all the way to the right) of a number.
860,000. Decimal Point
Step 2: Move the decimal point to the left until you have a number that is greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. Count the number of places you moved the decimal point.
860,000. the decimal is moved 5 places
Step 3: Rewrite the number in scientific notation. The number of places you moved the decimal is the exponent for the base of 10.
8.6 x 105
Remember: Scientific Notation requires that the value for “a” be at least 1 and less than 10.
Scientific Notation: Power of Zero, Negative Exponents, and Ordering
Power of Zero
4.5 x 100 = 4.5 x 1 = 4.5
Negative Exponents
Standard form to Scientific notation: 0.00000651 = 6.51 x 10-6
Count the number of paces the decimal is moved to the right to make the number between 1 and 10, the number of places moved to the right is written as the exponent for 10 and should be negative.
Scientific Notation to Standard form: 8.75 x 10-7 = 0.000000875
Move the decimal to the left according to the number in the exponent.
Ordering Use the values of the exponents to help determine the order. The smaller the exponent, the
smaller the value. The greater the exponent, the greater the value. Write the number in standard form to check the order. Write the numbers in order in their original form (scientific notation).
Scientific Notation: Estimation
To estimate:1. Look for the greatest place value and round to that place value. 2. Follow the rules for converting from standard form to scientific notation.
Examples: 0.00005146 456,145,956
Step 1:
Step 2:
Solution:
Multiplying in Scientific Notation
Step 1: use the commutative and associative properties of multiplication to regroup and reorder the multiplication problem.
Step 2: Multiply
Solution:
(2.15 x 108) x (1.24 x 103)
Step 1:
(2.15 x 1.24) x (108 x 103)
Step 2: 2.15 108+3 =1011
x1.24
2.666 x 1011
Standard form: 266,600,000,000
Dividing in Scientific Notation
Step 1: Divide the factors of a.
a x 10n a
a x 10n a
Step 2: Then, apply the rules for dividing exponential expressions. (you subtract the exponents)
n-n
Solution: Rewrite the answer in scientific notation using the number in step 1 and 2.
16.4 x 109
4.1 x 105
Step 1:
16.4 = 4
4.1
Step 2:
109-5 =104
4 x 104
Standard form: 40,000
Adding/Subtracting in Scientific Notation
Step 1: To add or subtract in scientific notation, the exponents must be the same. If they are not the same, rewrite the terms so that the exponents are the same. To do so, determine the number by which to increase the smaller exponent by so it is equal to the larger exponent.
Increase the smaller exponent by this number and move the decimal point of the number with the smaller exponent to the left the same number of places.
4.2 x 103 + 2.9 x 103 same exponents
Step 2: Add or subtract the new factors (digits) for “a.” 4.2 + 2.9 = 7.1
Solution: Write the sum in scientific notation. If the answer is not in scientific notation (i.e. if “a” is not between 1 and10 ) convert it to scientific notation.
7.1 x 103
Examples:
8.5 x 108 – 6.2 x 106
2.1 x 104 + 3.6 x 105
