Base
The base is the number used as the repeated factor
The exponent is the boss & tells how many times the
base is used as the factor.
Example: 10³ = 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000
6. Square Numbers
The product of a number and itself. A square number
can be represented using the repeated factor as the
base and 2 as the exponent.

When solving an equation with two operations, use the
properties of equally twice to get the variable by itself on one
side of the equation. To get the variable by itself, the order
of operations is reversed so addition & subtraction is
undone first before multiplication & division.

Use the Substitution Property of Equality
Substitution Property of Equality – states that if you know that one quantity is equal to another, you
can substitute that quantity for the other in an equation.
Erik remembers that 1 cube weighs 2 ounces and that 9 cubes weigh the
same as 3 bouncy balls. How can Erik use this information in another way
to recall the weight of 1 bouncy ball?
Step 1: Write an equation for the information given in the problem.
1 cube = 2 ounces 1c = 2 or (c=2)
9 cubes -= 3 bouncy balls 9c = 3b
Step 2: Use the Substitution Property of Equality
Substitute c=2 9(2) = 3b
