X + X125

(2-5)2

X + X9

(x)2

X + XX²

-122

X + X-144

(-12)2

X + X144

(-x)2

X + X x² The negative x was squared. –x • –x = positive x squared

-x2

X + X-x²Only the x was squared.

x • x = positive x squared, BUT the number was negative, and it stays negative.

X + X0

Zero to any power equals what

number?

X + X0

(-1)²

X + X1

(-1)³

X + X-1

(-1)0 = 1 (-1)4 = 1

(-1)1 = -1 (-1)5 = -1

(-1)2 = 1 (-1)6 = 1

(-1)3 = -1 (-1)7 = -1

(-1) raised to an EVEN power will always equal what

number?

X + X1

(-1) raised to an ODD power will always equal what

number?

X + X-1

5º Five to the zero power ???????

X + X1

16º Sixteen to the zero

power ???????

X + X1

xº x to the zero

power ???????

X + X1

(xyz)º xyz to the zero

power ???????

X + X1

Any number to the zero

power ???????

X + X1

10º = 1 10¹ = 1010² = 10010³ = 1000 Can you see the pattern?

X + XAs the power increases by one, we multiply by ten.

As the power decreases by one, we divide by ten.

5º + 2² • 3²

X + X37

2(3+1)³

X + X128

(-1)² + (-1)³

X + X0

(-1)¹• (-1)º
