Standards in this Framework
| Standard | Description |
|---|---|
| N-RN.A.1 | 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 5^1/3 to be the cube root of 5 because we want (5^1/3)^ 3 = 5^(1/3)^3 to hold, so (5^1/3)^ 3 must equal 5. |
| N-RN.A.2 | Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents. |
| N-RN.B.3 | Explain why the sum or product of two rational numbers is rational; that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational; and that the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational. |
| N-Q.A.1 | Use units as a way to understand problems and to guide the solution of multi-step problems; choose and interpret units consistently in formulas; choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays |
