        Intro W8

  •  Objectives

    1. The sections for this week are:
       • 6.5 Divide Monomials
       • 6.6 Divide Polynomials
       • 6.7 Integer Exponents and Scientific Notation

   

   Intro and Learning Objectives (click on all tabs to see all sections)

  • • 6.5
    • 6.6
    • 6.7

     Learning Outcomes

    In this section, you will:

    • Simplify expressions using the Quotient Property for Exponents
    • Simplify expressions with zero exponents
    • Simplify expressions using the quotient to a Power Property
    • Simplify expressions by applying several properties
    • Divide monomials

     Intro

    Earlier in this chapter, we developed the properties of exponents for multiplication. Now we will look at the exponent properties for division. A quick memory refresher may help before we get started. You have learned to simplify fractions by dividing out common factors from the numerator and denominator using the Equivalent Fractions Property. This property will also help you work with algebraic fractions—which are also quotients.

     Learning Outcomes

    In this section, you will:

    • Divide a polynomial by a monomial
    • Divide a polynomial by a binomial

     Intro

    In the last section, you learned how to divide a monomial by a monomial. As you continue to build up your knowledge of polynomials the next procedure is to divide a polynomial of two or more terms by a monomial.

    The method we’ll use to divide a polynomial by a monomial is based on the properties of fraction addition. 

     Learning Outcomes

    In this section, you will:

    • Use the definition of a negative exponent
    • Simplify expressions with integer exponents
    • Convert from decimal notation to scientific notation
    • Convert scientific notation to decimal form
    • Multiply and divide using scientific notation

     Intro

    The negative exponent tells us we can re-write the expression by taking the reciprocal of the base and then changing the sign of the exponent.

    Any expression that has negative exponents is not considered to be in simplest form. We will use the definition of a negative exponent and other properties of exponents to write the expression with only positive exponents.

     Assignments

    • Take Notes Week 8         Due Friday night.
      

    Directions

    •  Each section is accompanied by a Handout. Each Handout contains a few definitions, a few "How To" explanations, examples, and "Try It" exercises. Using the structure of the handout you have to write your own notes. Your notes must contain:

    • • Your name
      • The name of the section
      • Definitions and "How To" from the provided handout (this is optional, however, it will be a good idea to have the complete notes)
      • Everywhere there is a "Read Ex nr..." you have to read the example from the ebook and write in your notes : "I read the Ex nr..." . The link for the section in the ebook is provided at the bottom of the page.
      • You have to solve ALL "Try It" exercises.

    After you complete your notes you have to submit them. See Take Notes Methods. 

     

    • Video quizzes Week 8          Due Saturday night 11:59pm.

    Directions

    • To learn the material for this sections, take notes while watching each video and then demonstrate what you learned by doing the exercise below it.

     

    • Homework Week  8              Due Sunday night 11:59pm.
    •  

    Directions

    • There are 4 Practice Homework this week. This are online Homework but you do not have to leave Canvas. Just click on each link, answer the questions, and came back for the next section. There is no partial credit, each question is either 100% good or not. However you have unlimited attempts for each question. A 5% per day penalty applies for Late work if you'll do it until Tuesday night. After that the Homework will be open only for practice.

     

  The due dates for assignments are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

  However, you can submit them until Tuesday night next week.
