    Study Notes

    Algebraic Concepts and Definitions

    • Quantity: Indicates the use of parentheses when translating verbal sentences into algebraic form.
    • Domain and Range: Domain (X) represents input and independent variable; Range (Y) represents output and dependent variable.
    • Percent of Change Formula: Calculated as difference/original = %/100.
    • Algebraic Proof: Utilize a two-column chart with statements and reasons. Properties of equality include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
    • Relation: Defined as any set of ordered pairs.
    • Function: A specific type of relation where each x is paired with exactly one y.
    • Vertical Line Test: A function graph intersects a vertical line only once.

    Line Equations and Properties

    • Linear Model Indicators: Identified by a straight graph, consistent x-values in tables, and equations in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).
    • Slope: Defined as the ratio of rise to run; slope formula is (\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}).
    • Undefined and Zero Slopes: Vertical lines have an undefined slope; horizontal lines have a zero slope.
    • Direct Variation Formula: Expressed as (y = kx), where k is the constant of variation.
    • Standard Form of a Line: Represented as (Ax + By = C) with specific rules for A, B, and C.

    Systems of Equations

    • Solving Systems: Possible methods include graphing, substitution, and elimination. Solution represented as an ordered pair.
    • No Solution: Occurs when the system consists of parallel lines.
    • Infinitely Many Solutions: Arises from coinciding lines.

    Exponents and Radicals

    • Exponent Rules: Include keeping the base when multiplying or dividing (add or subtract exponents respectively) and changing negative exponents by moving them across the fraction line.
    • Simplifying Radicals: Ensures no perfect square factors under the radical and adheres to rules of simplification.
    • Extraneous Solutions: Values that do not satisfy the original equation resulting from transformations.

    Quadratics and Polynomials

    • Standard Quadratic Form: Expressed as (y = ax^2 + bx + c). The characteristics of "a" determine the direction and width of the parabola.
    • Methods for Solving Quadratics: Include graphing, square roots, factoring, and using the quadratic formula.
    • Discriminant: (b^2 - 4ac) determines the nature of solutions (real roots vs. no solutions).

    Sequences and Series

    • Arithmetic vs. Geometric Sequences: Arithmetic sequences use addition of a constant, while geometric sequences utilize multiplication of a constant.
    • Nth Term Formulas: Arithmetic: (a_n = a_1 + d(n - 1)); Geometric: (a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{n-1}).

    Data Representation and Analysis

    • Box and Whisker Plot: Visual representation showing quartiles, median, and interquartile range.
    • Probability Concepts: Compound probability calculated through multiplication of independent events.
    • Outliers: Values that significantly deviate from the rest of the data, determined through interquartile range calculations.

    Statistical Measures

    • Mean Absolute Deviation: Measures how far each data point is from the mean.
    • Standard Deviation: Indicates the variation from the mean within a dataset.

    Additional Topics

    • Distance Formula: (\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}) used to determine the distance between two points.
    • Midpoint Formula: ((\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})) calculates the center point between two coordinates.
    • Pythagorean Theorem: (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) applicable to right-angled triangles.
