1 Algebra Notes Powers, Roots, and Radicals Unit 07 Exponents, Radicals, and Rational Number Exponents n th Big Idea: If b a, then b is the n root of a. This is written n a b. n is called the index, a is called the radicand. The square root has an implied index of. Rational exponents are another wa of expressing radicals. The radical n root of both sides. a m is the same as m n a. Exponential equations can be solved b taking the nth Objectives: N.RN.A. 1 Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents. Explain how the definition of the meaning of rational exponents follows from extending the properties of integer exponents to those values, allowing for a notation for radicals in terms of rational exponents. For example, we define 5 1/ to be the cube root of 5 because we want (5 1/ ) = 5 (1/) to hold, so (5 1/ ) must equal 5. N.RN.A. Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents. Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents. A.REI.A. Reasoning with Equations and Inequalities. Solve simple rational and radical equations in one variable, and give examples showing how extraneous solutions ma arise.

19 Algebra Notes Powers, Roots, and Radicals Unit 07 Big Idea: An two functions, Functions involving Powers, Roots and Radicals f x and g x, can be added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided. Functions can also be combined using composition of functions. In a composition function, the results of one function are used to evaluate a second function. The composition of f and g is f g. The Composition of two functions ma not exist. Given two functions f and g, f g( x ) is defined onl if the range of g x is a subset of the domain of f x. Objectives: F.BF.A.1b Build a function that models a relationship between two quantities. Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities. Combine standard function tpes using arithmetic operations. For example, build a function that models the temperature of a cooling bod b adding a constant function to a decaing exponential, and relate these functions to the model. F.BF.A.1c Build a function that models a relationship between two quantities. Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities. Compose functions. For example, if T() is the temperature in the atmosphere as a function of height, and h(t) is the height of a weather balloon as a function of time, then T(h(t)) is the temperature at the location of the weather balloon as a function of time. Skills: The student will perform arithmetic operations of functions. The student will find a composition of functions. Function Operations: Let f and g be two functions, and h be the resulting function after performing the following operations.

The domain of f is All Real Numbers, and the domain of g x 0, so the domain of h is x 0. Division: f x Note: In the domain of gx h x h x, g x 0. Ex : Let f x x and g x x 5. Find hx x f and state its domain. g x h x x x 5 The domain of f is x, and the domain of g is All Real Numbers. Because gx is in the denominator, the domain of h must be restricted so that gx 0. So the domain of h is x, x 5. Composition of Two Functions: the composition h of the function f with the function g is. The domain of h is the set of all x-values such that x is in the domain of g and gx h x f g x is in the domain of f. Alg II Unit 07 Notes Powers Roots & Radicalsrev Page 0 of 6 01/16/01

29 Algebra Notes Powers, Roots, and Radicals Unit 07 Inverse Relations/Functions involving Powers, Roots and Radicals Big Idea: The inverse relation is the set of ordered pairs obtained b exchanging the coordinates of each ordered pair. The domain of a relation becomes the range of its inverse, and the range of the relation becomes the domain of its inverse. To determine if the original function has an inverse function it must pass the vertical and horizontal line tests showing it is both a function and one-to-one. To verif functions are inverses show that [ f g]( x) [ g f ]( x) x. The graph of a function and its inverse are smmetrical to the graph x. When a function does not have an inverse, restrict its domain in order to find an inverse function. Objectives: F.BF.B.a Build new functions from existing functions. Find inverse functions. a. Solve an equation of the form f(x) = c for a simple function f that has an inverse and write an expression for the inverse. For example, f(x) = x or f(x) = (x+1)/(x 1) for x 1. F.BF.B.b Build new functions from existing functions. Verif b composition that one function is the inverse of another. F.BF.B.c Build new functions from existing functions. Read values of an inverse function from a graph or a table, given that the function has an inverse. F.BF.B.d Build new functions from existing functions. Produce an invertible function from a noninvertible function b restricting the domain. Skill: The student will derive and verif inverses of functions. Inverse Relation: a mapping of the output values of a relation to its input values Ex 6: Find the inverse relation of the relation. x To find the inverse relation, we will switch the input (x) values and the output () values. x Note: Looking at the graph of the relation (solid points) and its inverse relation (open points), we can see that the inverse relation includes all of the points reflected over the line x. Alg II Unit 07 Notes Powers Roots & Radicalsrev Page 9 of 6 01/16/01

30 Algebra Notes Powers, Roots, and Radicals Unit 07 Finding the Equation of an Inverse Relation: recall that the inverse of a relation is its reflection over the line x. Therefore, to find the equation of an inverse relation, we will reverse the x and variables and solve for. Note: If both the relation and its inverse relation are functions, then the two relations are called inverse functions. Notation for Inverse Functions: The inverse of a function f is denoted 1 f. Caution: This is not to be confused with the exponent 1!! Ex 7: Find the equation of the inverse function of f x x. Step One: Switch the x and variables. Note: Step Two: Solve for. Step Three: Write in inverse notation. f x. x x 1 x 1 1 f x x We can verif our answer using the graph of the ordered pairs, as in our first example. However, a function and its inverse have another special relationship. Verifing Inverse Functions: To verif that two functions are inverses, we must show that f f x f f x x. The function x is the identit function, so the composition of a 1 1 function and its inverse is the identit. Ex 8: Show algebraicall and graphicall that the functions f x x and 1 1 f x x are inverses.

Ex 9: Find the inverse of the function x. x for 0 Step One: Switch the x and. x Step Two: Solve for. x Because x 0, we onl need the positive square root. x Step Three: Rewrite in inverse notation. 1 x Let s take a look at the graphs of these two functions. The are reflections of each other over the line x. Calculator Note: To graph x on its restricted domain, use parentheses after the function. What if the domain of x was not restricted? Let s take a look at the graphs. You can see that the inverse of x is not a function. B looking at a function s graph, we can see if it has an inverse function using the Horizontal Line Test. Horizontal Line Test: If a horizontal line intersects the graph of a function f not more than once, then the inverse of f is a function.
