HW: 6.4/10-66 multiples of 3

Radicals (also called roots) are directly related to exponents.
Rational Exponents
All radicals (roots) can be written in a different format without a radical symbol.
This different format uses a rational (fractional) exponent.
![Page 3: Rational Exponents Lesson 6.4 Algebra II HW: 6.4/10-66 multiples of 3.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649ead5503460f94bb3a78/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
When the exponent of the radicand (expression under the radical symbol) is one, the rational exponent form of a radical looks like this:
Rational Exponents
Remember that the index, n, is a whole number equal to or greater than 2.

Rational Exponents
Examples:
• When a base has a fractional exponent, do not think of the exponent in the same way as when it is a whole number.
• When a base has a fractional exponent, the exponent is telling you that you have a radical written in a different form.

Rational Exponents
For any exponent of the radicand, the rational exponent form of a radical looks like this:

How do you simplify ?
Rational Exponents
• You can rewrite the expression using a radical.
• Simplify the radical expression, if possible.
• Write your answer in simplest form.
• Reduce the rational exponent, if possible.

Rational Exponents
The basic properties for integer exponents also hold for rational exponents as long as the expression represents a real number.

Rational Exponents
Do you remember the basic Rules of Exponents that you learned in Roots and Radicals?
See the next two slides for a quick review.

Rational Exponents
In working with radicals, whether in radical form or in fractional exponent form, simplify wherever and whenever possible.
What is the process for simplifying radical expressions?
![Page 21: Rational Exponents Lesson 6.4 Algebra II HW: 6.4/10-66 multiples of 3.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649ead5503460f94bb3a78/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Rational Exponents
Simplifying radicals – A radical expression is in simplest form once ALL of the following conditions have been met.…
• the radicand (expression under the radical symbol) cannot
be written in an exponent form with any factor having an
exponent equal to or larger than the index of the radical;
• there is no fraction under the radical symbol;
• there is no radical in a denominator.
