If ab>0, then a and b are what?
either both positive or both negative
What does a negative exponent mean?
flip the number and then take the exponent (reciprocal)
5^-2 = (1/(5^2))
Any non-zero raised to the zero power equals what?
1
When multiplying exponential terms that share a common base, what do you do?
Add exponents (5^2 * 5^4 = 5^6)
When dividing exponential terms that share a common base, what do you do?
Subtract exponents (5^6 % 5^2 = 5^4)
When something with an exponent is raised to another power, what do you do?
Multiply the two exponents together
(a^2)^4 = a^8

When you multiply or divide two roots together what can you do?
You can multiply or divide within the sqrt
When you have one large sqrt, what can you do?
split the sqrt into smaller sqrts
ex. sqrt(12) = sqrt (4) * sqrt (3) = 2sqrt (3)
When finding how many integers in a sequence, remember to what?
Add one to include both ends (inclusive)
