Lesson: Simplifying Monomials: Product Rule Mathematics

Students will be able to

• simplify a monomial by rewriting it in index notation,
• recognize the product rule for exponents,
• use the product rule of exponents to simplify a monomial involving
  • a single variable,
  • a single variable and constants,
  • two variables,
  • two variables and constants,
• solve more complex problems, such as writing and simplifying monomials for a geometric problem.
