Exponents

Match the following:

multiply 2 powers with the same base, keep the common base and ADD the exponents

Product rule

When you have an exponent raised to a power, keep the base and MULTIPLY the exponents

Irrational number

a number that when written as a decimal it does not end or repeat (ex: 2.3587409873652974…)

Power rule

Slope

Match the following

the point on the graph where the line crosses the x-axis (what is x when y=0)

Y-intercept

y=mx+b

m is slope

b is y-intercept

Slope intercept form
