Course 3 Look for a Pattern in Integer Exponents 2-8 10 2 10 • 10 100 ÷ 10 101 100 10 1 10 1 ÷ 10 –2 10–1 1 10 10 1 10 • 10 1 = 0.1 1 = 0.01 100 10 ÷ 10 ÷ 10 Look for a pattern in the table to extend what you know about exponents to include negative exponents. Start with what you know about positive and zero exponents. Course 3 Look for a Pattern in Integer Exponents 2-8 Additional Example 1A & 1B: Using a Pattern to Evaluate Negative Exponents Evaluate the powers of 10. A. 10–2 10–2 1 = 10 • 10 10–2 1 = 0.01 = 100 B. 10–1 10 –1 10 –1 Course 3 1 = 10 = 1 10 = 0.1 Look for a Pattern in Integer Exponents 2-8 Additional Example 1C: Using a Pattern to Evaluate Negative Exponents Continued Evaluate the powers of 10.

Algebra b–n = 1 bn Remember! The reciprocal of a number is 1 divided by that number. Course 3 Look for a Pattern in Integer Exponents 2-8 Additional Example 2: Evaluating Negative Exponents Evaluate. 5–3 1 53 Write the reciprocal; change the sign of the exponent. 1 5•5•5 1 125 Course 3 Look for a Pattern in Integer Exponents 2-8 Try This: Example 2 Evaluate. (–10)–3 1 –103 Write the reciprocal; change the sign of the exponent. 1 (–10)(–10)(–10) – Course 3 1 = –0.001 1000 2-8 Look for a Pattern in Integer Exponents Additional Example 3A: Evaluating Products and Quotients of Negative Exponents Evaluate.
