    Study Notes

    • Whole Numbers*

    Properties of Whole Numbers

    • When two or more whole numbers are added, the result is always a whole number.
    • When two or more whole numbers are multiplied, the result is always a whole number.
    • The system of whole numbers is closed under addition and multiplication.
    • 0 is the identity element for addition, meaning that when 0 is added to a number, the result is the same number.

    Types of Numbers

    • Natural numbers: counting numbers, excluding 0.
    • Whole numbers: natural numbers, including 0.
    • Integers: whole numbers, including negative numbers.
    • Rational numbers: numbers that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers.

    • Adding a negative number is equivalent to subtracting a positive number.
    • Subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding a positive number.

    • This property is used to divide a sum or difference by a number

    Factorizing Algebraic Expressions

    Expansion of Binomials

    • To expand the product of two binomials, apply the distributive property
    • (x + a)(x + b) = x^2 + (a + b)x + ab

    • When using a rule, multiply a number by 5 and subtract the result from 50
    • Apply the rule to different sets and determine the output numbers

    Application to Even Numbers

    • Consider even numbers (e.g., 2, 4, 6, 8, 10) and apply different rules (e.g., 2n + 1, 2n - 1, 2n + 5, 3n + 1)

    Equivalent Forms

    • Determine the output numbers for each set when the rule is applied
    • Analyze the output types:
      • Applying the rule x - 1000 to natural numbers smaller than 1000 results in negative numbers
      • Applying the rule x/10 + 10 to natural numbers smaller than 10 results in positive numbers between 10 and 11
      • Applying the rule 30x + 2 to positive fractions with denominators 2, 3, and 5 results in positive numbers greater than 2

    Representation of Functions

    • A relationship between two variables in which there is only one output number for each input number is called a function
    • Functions can be represented in different ways:
      • Table: Shows some values of the two variables and clearly indicates which output value corresponds to each input value
      • Flow Diagram: Illustrates the calculations needed to determine the output number for a given input variable
