    Integer INTEGRAL EXPONENTS

    Uploaded by

    Rosenia Santiago Pascual
    The document discusses laws of exponents. It defines eight laws for manipulating expressions with exponents, such as combining like terms with exponents (x^m * x^n = x^(m+n)) and dividing terms with exponents (x^m / x^n = x^(m-n)). It provides examples of applying each law and a practice problem set for students to simplify expressions using the laws of exponents.
