Explanation of new material using the example of previously studied material.

You are already familiar with the concept of a degree with an integer exponent. Who will help me remember them?

Repetition using presentation " Degree with an integer exponent».

For any numbers a, b and any integers m and n the equalities are valid:

a m * a n =a m+n ;

a m: a n =a m-n (a ≠ 0);

(a m) n = a mn ;

(a b) n =a n * b n ;

(a/b) n = a n /b n (b ≠ 0) ;

a 1 =a ; a 0 = 1(a ≠ 0)

Today we will generalize the concept of power of a number and give meaning to expressions that have a fractional exponent. Let's introduce definition degrees with a rational exponent (Presentation “Degree with a rational exponent”):

Power of a > 0 with rational exponent r = , Where m is an integer, and n – natural ( n > 1), called the number m .

So, by definition we get that = m .

Let's try to apply this definition when completing a task.

EXAMPLE No. 1

I Present the expression as a root of a number:

A) B) IN) .

Now let's try to apply this definition in reverse

II Express the expression as a power with a rational exponent:

A) 2 B) IN) 5 .

The power of 0 is defined only for positive exponents.

0 r= 0 for any r> 0.

Using this definition, Houses you will complete #428 and #429.

Let us now show that with the definition of a degree with a rational exponent formulated above, the basic properties of degrees are preserved, which are true for any exponents.

For any rational numbers r and s and any positive a and b, the following equalities hold:

Working on the material

Let us note two more properties of powers with rational exponents:

a r < b r at r> 0,

a r < b r at r< 0.

7 0 . For any rational numbersr And s from inequality r> s follows that

a r>a r for a > 1,

a r < а r at 0< а < 1.

EXAMPLE: Compare the numbers:

AND ; 2 300 and 3 200 .

Lesson summary:

Today in the lesson we recalled the properties of a degree with an integer exponent, learned the definition and basic properties of a degree with a rational exponent, and examined the application of this theoretical material in practice when performing exercises. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the topic “Degree with a rational exponent” is mandatory in the Unified State Examination tasks. In preparation homework ( No. 428 and No. 429

The video lesson “Exponent with a rational exponent” contains a visual educational material to teach a lesson on this topic. The video lesson contains information about the concept of a degree with a rational exponent, properties of such degrees, as well as examples describing the use of educational material to solve practical problems. The purpose of this video lesson is to clearly and clearly present the educational material, facilitate its development and memorization by students, and develop the ability to solve problems using the learned concepts.

The main advantages of the video lesson are the ability to visually perform transformations and calculations, the ability to use animation effects to improve learning efficiency. Voice accompaniment helps develop correct mathematical speech, and also makes it possible to replace the teacher’s explanation, freeing him up to carry out individual work.

The video lesson begins by introducing the topic. Linking studies new topic with previously studied material, it is suggested to remember that n √a is otherwise denoted by a 1/n for natural n and positive a. This n-root representation is displayed on the screen. Next, we propose to consider what the expression a m/n means, in which a is a positive number and m/n is a fraction. The definition of a degree with a rational exponent as a m/n = n √a m is given, highlighted in the frame. It is noted that n can be a natural number, and m can be an integer.

After defining a degree with a rational exponent, its meaning is revealed through examples: (5/100) 3/7 = 7 √(5/100) 3. An example is also shown in which the degree represented by decimal, is converted to a common fraction to be represented as a root: (1/7) 1.7 = (1/7) 17/10 = 10 √(1/7) 17 and example with negative value degrees: 3 -1/8 = 8 √3 -1.

The peculiarity of the special case when the base of the degree is zero is indicated separately. It is noted that this degree makes sense only with a positive fractional exponent. In this case, its value is zero: 0 m/n =0.

Another feature of a degree with a rational exponent is noted - that a degree with a fractional exponent cannot be considered with a fractional exponent. Examples of incorrect notation of degrees are given: (-9) -3/7, (-3) -1/3, 0 -1/5.

Next in the video lesson we discuss the properties of a degree with a rational exponent. It is noted that the properties of a degree with an integer exponent will also be valid for a degree with a rational exponent. It is proposed to recall the list of properties that are also valid in this case:

1. When multiplying powers with the same bases, their exponents add up: a p a q =a p+q.
2. The division of degrees with the same bases is reduced to a degree with a given base and the difference in the exponents: a p:a q =a p-q.
3. If we raise the degree to a certain power, then we end up with a degree with a given base and the product of exponents: (a p) q =a pq.

All these properties are valid for powers with rational exponents p, q and positive base a>0. Also, degree transformations when opening parentheses remain true:

1. (ab) p =a p b p - raising to some power with a rational exponent the product of two numbers is reduced to the product of numbers, each of which is raised to a given power.
2. (a/b) p =a p /b p - raising a fraction to a power with a rational exponent is reduced to a fraction whose numerator and denominator are raised to a given power.

The video tutorial discusses solving examples that use the considered properties of powers with a rational exponent. The first example asks you to find the value of an expression that contains variables x in a fractional power: (x 1/6 -8) 2 -16x 1/6 (x -1/6 -1). Despite the complexity of the expression, using the properties of powers it can be solved quite simply. Solving the problem begins with simplifying the expression, which uses the rule of raising a power with a rational exponent to a power, as well as multiplying powers with the same base. After substituting the given value x=8 into the simplified expression x 1/3 +48, ​​it is easy to obtain the value - 50.

In the second example, you need to reduce a fraction whose numerator and denominator contain powers with a rational exponent. Using the properties of the degree, we extract from the difference the factor x 1/3, which is then reduced in the numerator and denominator, and using the formula for the difference of squares, the numerator is factorized, which gives further reductions of identical factors in the numerator and denominator. The result of such transformations is the short fraction x 1/4 +3.

The video lesson “Exponent with a rational exponent” can be used instead of the teacher explaining a new lesson topic. This manual also contains enough full information for independent study by the student. The material can also be useful for distance learning.

In this article we will figure out what it is degree of. Here we will give definitions of the power of a number, while we will consider in detail all possible exponents, starting with the natural exponent and ending with the irrational one. In the material you will find a lot of examples of degrees, covering all the subtleties that arise.

Power with natural exponent, square of a number, cube of a number

Let's start with . Looking ahead, let's say that the definition of the power of a number a with natural exponent n is given for a, which we will call degree basis, and n, which we will call exponent. We also note that a degree with a natural exponent is determined through a product, so to understand the material below you need to have an understanding of multiplying numbers.

Definition.

Power of a number with natural exponent n is an expression of the form a n, the value of which is equal to the product of n factors, each of which is equal to a, that is, .
In particular, the power of a number a with exponent 1 is the number a itself, that is, a 1 =a.

It’s worth mentioning right away about the rules for reading degrees. Universal method reading the entry a n is: “a to the power of n”. In some cases, the following options are also acceptable: “a to the nth power” and “nth power of a”. For example, let's take the power 8 12, this is “eight to the power of twelve”, or “eight to the twelfth power”, or “twelfth power of eight”.

The second power of a number, as well as the third power of a number, have their own names. The second power of a number is called square the number, for example, 7 2 is read as “seven squared” or “the square of the number seven.” The third power of a number is called cubed numbers, for example, 5 3 can be read as “five cubed” or you can say “cube of the number 5”.

It's time to bring examples of degrees with natural exponents. Let's start with the degree 5 7, here 5 is the base of the degree, and 7 is the exponent. Let's give another example: 4.32 is the base, and natural number 9 – exponent (4.32) 9 .

Please note that in the last example, the base of the power 4.32 is written in parentheses: to avoid discrepancies, we will put in parentheses all bases of the power that are different from natural numbers. As an example, let's give the following degrees with natural indicators , their bases are not natural numbers, so they are written in parentheses. Well, for complete clarity, at this point we will show the difference contained in records of the form (−2) 3 and −2 3. The expression (−2) 3 is a power of −2 with a natural exponent of 3, and the expression −2 3 (it can be written as −(2 3) ) corresponds to the number, the value of the power 2 3 .

Note that there is a notation for the power of a number a with an exponent n of the form a^n. Moreover, if n is a multi-valued natural number, then the exponent is taken in brackets. For example, 4^9 is another notation for the power of 4 9 . And here are some more examples of writing degrees using the symbol “^”: 14^(21) , (−2,1)^(155) . In what follows, we will primarily use degree notation of the form a n .

One of the problems inverse to raising to a power with a natural exponent is the problem of finding the base of the power by known value degree and known indicator. This task leads to .

It is known that the set of rational numbers consists of integers and fractions, and each fractional number can be represented as positive or negative common fraction. We defined a degree with an integer exponent in the previous paragraph, therefore, in order to complete the definition of a degree with a rational exponent, we need to give meaning to the degree of the number a with a fractional exponent m/n, where m is an integer and n is a natural number. Let's do it.

Let's consider a degree with a fractional exponent of the form . For the power-to-power property to remain valid, the equality must hold . If we take into account the resulting equality and how we determined , then it is logical to accept it provided that for given m, n and a the expression makes sense.

It is easy to check that for all properties of a degree with an integer exponent are valid (this is done in section properties of powers with rational exponent).

The above reasoning allows us to make the following conclusion: if given m, n and a the expression makes sense, then the power of a with a fractional exponent m/n is called the nth root of a to the power of m.

This statement brings us close to the definition of a degree with a fractional exponent. All that remains is to describe at what m, n and a the expression makes sense. Depending on the restrictions placed on m, n and a, there are two main approaches.

The easiest way is to impose a constraint on a by taking a≥0 for positive m and a>0 for negative m (since for m≤0 the degree 0 of m is not defined). Then we get following definition degrees with a fractional exponent.

Definition.

Power of a positive number a with fractional exponent m/n, where m is an integer and n is a natural number, is called the nth root of the number a to the power m, that is, .

The fractional power of zero is also determined with the only caveat that the indicator must be positive.

Definition.

Power of zero with fractional positive exponent m/n, where m is a positive integer and n is a natural number, is defined as .
When the degree is not determined, that is, the degree of the number zero with a fractional negative exponent does not make sense.

It should be noted that with this definition of a degree with a fractional exponent, there is one caveat: for some negative a and some m and n, the expression makes sense, and we discarded these cases by introducing the condition a≥0. For example, the entries make sense or , and the definition given above forces us to say that powers with a fractional exponent of the form do not make sense, since the base should not be negative.

Another approach to determining a degree with a fractional exponent m/n is to separately consider even and odd exponents of the root. This approach requires an additional condition: the power of the number a, the exponent of which is , is considered to be the power of the number a, the exponent of which is the corresponding irreducible fraction (we will explain the importance of this condition below). That is, if m/n is an irreducible fraction, then for any natural number k the degree is first replaced by .

For even n and positive m, the expression makes sense for any non-negative a (an even root of a negative number does not make sense); for negative m, the number a must still be different from zero (otherwise there will be division by zero). And for odd n and positive m, the number a can be any (the root of an odd degree is defined for any real number), and for negative m, the number a must be different from zero (so that there is no division by zero).

The above reasoning leads us to this definition of a degree with a fractional exponent.

Definition.

Let m/n be an irreducible fraction, m an integer, and n a natural number. For any reducible fraction, the degree is replaced by . The power of a number with an irreducible fractional exponent m/n is for



Let us explain why a degree with a reducible fractional exponent is first replaced by a degree with an irreducible exponent. If we simply defined the degree as , and did not make a reservation about the irreducibility of the fraction m/n, then we would be faced with situations similar to the following: since 6/10 = 3/5, then the equality must hold , But , A .
