For additional help with this VERY important topic of FACTORING, please visit my own website. Do a "Bing" or "Google" search for my last name "Rapalje". Look for "Rapalje Homepage" near the top of the search list. From my Homepage, look for "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time." Select "Basic Algebra" and look in "Chapter 2" for two topics on Laws of Exponents, "Section 2.12 (Positive Exponents)" and "Section 2.13 (Negative Exponents)." These sections are supported by my "MATH IN LIVING COLOR" pages in which I solved problems IN COLOR!
