This IB Math AA HL 1.10 – Simplifying Expressions worksheet provides a rigorous, technique-driven exploration of algebraic simplification using the laws of indices and rational exponents. The tasks progress from simplifying numerical and algebraic expressions with fractional and negative powers to more complex symbolic manipulation, reinforcing precision and fluency expected at Higher Level .
Students apply exponent laws to rewrite expressions in standard and simplest forms, including powers of ten and scientific notation. Contextual problems extend these skills to physics, biology, and finance, requiring students to interpret how algebraic transformations affect real-world models such as gravity, metabolic rate, investment growth, and gas laws.
With carefully sequenced, exam-style questions and fully worked solutions, this worksheet supports HL classroom instruction and independent study, helping students develop confident, accurate algebraic manipulation and deeper understanding of how simplifying expressions underpins advanced mathematical modelling.
