  • Exponents 
    ::指数

    Many formulas and equations in mathematics contain exponents. Exponents are used as a short-hand notation for repeated multiplication . For example:
    ::数学中的许多公式和方程式含有指数。 指数被用作重复乘法的短手符号。 例如 :

    2 2 = 2 2 2 2 2 = 2 3

    The exponent stands for how many times the number is used as a factor (multiplied). When dealing with integers , it's usually easiest to simplify the expression . For example, as shown here, we commonly just write 4 instead of  2 2 ,  and 8 instead of  2 3 .
    ::引号表示数字是作为系数( 倍数) 的多少倍。 在处理整数时, 通常最容易简化表达式。 例如, 如此处所示, 我们通常只写 4, 而不是 22, 8 而不是 23 。

    2 2 = 4 2 3 = 8

    However, we generally keep the exponents when we work with variables, because it is much easier to write x 8 than x x x x x x x x .
    ::然而,我们通常在与变量合作时保留指数,因为写x8比写xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx要容易得多。

    To evaluate expressions with exponents, substitute the values you are given for each variable and simplify. It is especially important when working with exponents to substitute using " data-term="Parentheses" role="term" tabindex="0"> parentheses in order to make sure that the simplification is done correctly.
    ::要用表率来评价表达式, 请替换您给每个变量提供的值, 并简化。 在与表率一起使用括号时, 使用括号替换特别重要, 以确保简化正确进行 。

    The area of a circle is given by the formula A = π r 2 .  Find the area of a circle with radius r = 17   i n c h e s .
    ::公式Ar2给定一个圆区域,以半径 r=17 英寸查找圆区域。

    Substitute values into the equation .
    ::等式中的替代值 。

    A = π r 2 Substitute 17 for  r . = π ( 17 ) 2 = 3.14 ( 17 ) ( 17 ) A 907.92  Rounded to 2 decimal places.

    ::r2 替代 17 r. (17)2= 3.14(17)(17)A 907.92四舍五入到小数点后两位。

    The area of the circle is approximately 907.92 square inches.
    ::圆的面积约为907.92平方英寸。

    Find the value of  x 2 y 3 x 3 + y 2 ,  when  x = 2  and  y = 4.

    ::当 x=2 和 y4 时, 查找 x2y3x3+y2 的值 。

    Substitute the given values for  x and y .
    ::替换 x 和 y 的给定值。

    x 2 y 3 x 3 + y 2 = ( 2 ) 2 ( 4 ) 3 ( 2 ) 3 + ( 4 ) 2 Substitute   2   for   x   and   4   for   y . = 4 ( 64 ) 8 + 16 ( 2 ) 2 = 4 ,   ( 4 ) 3 = 64 ,   ( 2 ) 3 = 8 ,   ( 4 ) 2 = 16. = 256 24 = 32 3

    The height "> ( h ) of a ball in flight is given by the formula h = 32 t 2 + 60 t + 20 , where the height is given in feet and the time ( t ) is given in seconds. Find the height of the ball at time t = 2  seconds.
    ::飞行中的球的高度红心 由公式 h32t2+60t+20给定, 高度以足为单位, 时间(t) 以秒为单位。 在时间 t=2 秒时查找球的高度 。

    h = 32 t 2 + 60 t + 20 = 32 ( 2 ) 2 + 60 ( 2 ) + 20 Substitute   2   for   t . = 32 ( 4 ) + 60 ( 2 ) + 20 = 12
