Lesson Objective

Discover and apply Product, Quotient, Power of a Power, Zero, and Negative exponent properties to simplify numeric expressions.

How do the properties of multiplication and division extend to working with exponents?

Why does any non-zero base raised to the power of zero equal 1?

How can we rewrite expressions containing negative exponents using only positive exponents?

Base, Exponent, Power, Product of Powers Property, Quotient of Powers Property, Power of a Power Property, Zero Exponent Property, Negative Exponent Property, Simplify, Evaluate
