Seeing Structure In Expressions
Outcomes
-
Interpret The Structure Of Expressions
-
A.SSE.2
Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see x4 - y4 as (x2)2 - (y2)2, thus recognizing it as a difference of squares that can be factored as (x2 - y2)(x2 + y2).Examples

A.SSE.2
-
Write Expressions In Equivalent Forms To Solve Problems
-
A.SSE.3.c
Use the properties of exponents to transform expressions for exponential functions. For example the expression 1.15t can be rewritten as (1.151/12)12t _ 1.01212t to reveal the approximate equivalent monthly interest rate if the annual rate is 15%.Examples
