1 6. Radical and Rational Exponent of a number? How can you write and evaluate an nth root Recall that you cube a number a follow. Symbol for cubing i rd power. = = 8 cubed i 8. To undo thi, take the cube root of the number. Symbol for cube root i. 8 = = The cube root of 8 i. ACTIVITY: Finding Cube Root Work with a partner. Ue a cube root ymbol to write the ide length of the cube. Then find the cube root. Check your anwer by multiplying. Which cube i the larget? Which two are the ame ize? Explain your reaoning. a. Volume 7 ft b. Volume 5 cm c. Volume 75 in. COMMON CORE Exponent In thi leon, you will implify expreion with rational exponent. Learning Standard N.RN. N.RN. d. Volume.75 m e. Volume yd 5 f. Volume mm 8 Cube are not drawn to cale. 76 Chapter 6 Exponential Equation and Function

2 ACTIVITY: Etimating nth Root Work with a partner. When you raie an nth root of a number to the nth power, you get the original number. ( n a ) n = a Sample: The th root of 6 i becaue = 6. 6 = Check: = = 6 Match the nth root with the point on the number line. Jutify your anwer. a. 5 b. 0.5 c. 5.5 d. 65 e. 55 f. 6 0,000 A. B. C. D. E. F Math Practice Jutify Concluion What information can you ue to jutify your anwer?. IN YOUR OWN WORDS How can you write and evaluate the nth root of a number?. The body ma m (in kilogram) of a dinoaur that walked on two feet can be modeled by m = (0.0006)C.7 where C i the circumference (in millimeter) of the dinoaur femur. The ma of a Femur Tyrannoauru rex wa 000 kilogram. What wa the circumference of it femur? Ue what you learned about cube root to complete Exercie 5 on page 80. Section 6. Radical and Rational Exponent 77

3 6. Leon Leon Tutorial Key Vocabulary nth root, p. 78 When b n = a for an integer n greater than, b i an nth root of a. n a nth root of a The nth root of a number may be real number or imaginary number. You will tudy imaginary number in a future coure. Study Tip In Example b, although = 8 and ( ) = 8, 8 = becaue the radical ymbol indicate the poitive root. Finding nth Root Simplify each expreion. a. 6 b. 6 = 8 = = 8 = Rational Exponent Word The nth root of a poitive number a can be written a a power with bae a and an exponent of /n. Number 8 = 8 / Algebra n a = a /n Reading When n =, the i typically not written with the radical ign. Simplifying Expreion with Rational Exponent Simplify each expreion. a. 00 / 00 / = 00 Write the expreion in radical form. = 0 0 Rewrite. = 0 Simplify. b. /5 /5 = 5 Write the expreion in radical form. = 5 Rewrite. = Simplify.
