Unit 9
This math unit begins by introducing students to the concept of negative fractional exponents with integer bases, guiding them through the process of simplifying expressions to find equivalent exponents or radical forms. They start with simpler tasks, learning to handle integer bases raised to negative fractional exponents, and progressively move to include squared and non-square integer bases. The tasks evolve to require factoring of the base numbers, understanding the relationship between exponents and radicals, and eventually simplifying these expressions extensively. As the unit progresses, students delve deeper into scenarios involving non-square bases and fractional exponents with both negative and standard fractional bases. They learn to factor the bases and simplify expressions to uncover the underlying radical or simplified forms. This advanced work includes dealing with unit and non-unit fractional bases, as well as extending their skills to handle negative unit fractions raised to powers, emphasizing comprehensive understanding and manipulation of various properties of exponents and radicals within algebraic contexts.
