Outcomes

In this course you will learn how to:

1. Use exponential notation and exponential identities.
2. Multiply exponents.
3. Divide exponents.
4. Raise a power to a power.
5. Change fractional exponents to radical form.
6. Simplify surds.

Use the dynamic worksheet to practice simplifying expressions with fractional exponents, rewriting them as radicals.

Three activities which illustrate the law of exponents.

This is a simple video which describes how indices problems are solved using simplified laws.

An elaboration on some of the common misconceptions in dealing with Newton's Third Law. He also shows how to correctly and reliably identify Third Law force pairs.

Learn about Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Look at multiple examples that illustrate this law, including pushing a block on ice, pushing against a desk, walking on sand, how rockets work, and how an astronaut could save themselves from drifting in space.

Online problems where the student is required to simplify the expression using the product property of exponents.

An activity explaining the properties of exponents.

In this section, you will:

• Evaluate square roots.
• Use the product rule to simplify square roots.
• Use the quotient rule to simplify square roots.
• Add and subtract square roots.
• Rationalize denominators.
• Use rational roots.
