Study Notes
Algebraic Solutions
- A solution to the equation (x + 2 = 11) is (x = 9).
- A contradiction in equations has no solutions.
- The Addition Property of Equality states that adding or subtracting the same quantity from both sides of an equation maintains equality.
Equation Manipulation
- To clear fractions in ( \frac{3}{2}x + \frac{-5}{9}x + 2), multiply by (18).
- To eliminate decimals in the equation (0.56x - 0.98x + 0.734 = 0.43x), multiply by (1,000).
Types of Equations
- The equation (3x - 1 = 3x + 1) is a contradiction, meaning no values of (x) satisfy it.
- (4x - 11 = 7) and (x - 1 = -x + 4) are conditional equations, indicating they result in a unique solution.
- The identity (2 - 8x = 2 - 8x) holds true for all (x).
Solving for Variables
- The equation (2 \frac{1}{2} x = 10) yields (x = 4).
- In the equation (2n + 5 = n - 7), the solution is (n = -12).
- The equation (3x - (2x + 7) = 15) simplifies to (x = 22).
- From ( \frac{3}{8}x + 7 = 13), the solution for (x) is (16).
- Solving (0.7x - 1.2 = 0.3x) results in (x = 3).
Variable Isolations
- The equation (5(3x + 2) = 7x - 2) simplifies to find (x = -\frac{3}{2}).
- For the absolute value equation ( |2x + 1| = 3), solutions are (x = 1) and (x = -2).
- The equation (3|4x + 1| + 10 = 7) results in no solutions.
- From the equation (5|x - 1| - 2 = 23), solutions found are (x = -4) and (x = 6).
Word Problems and Applications
- In a class of 42, where the number of boys is 12 fewer than twice the number of girls, the equation (x + 2x - 12 = 42) expresses the relationships.
- For the scenario where one number is 40% more than another and their sum is 84, the equation (x + 1.4x = 84) is used.
- Mrs. Hill's age relationship with her son can be modeled with (x + 2x + 4 = 50).
Formulas
- Ohm's Law is given by (V = IR), relating voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R).
- Volume (V) of a rectangular prism is calculated using (V = lwh) where (l) is length, (w) is width, and (h) is height.
- The formula for solving for y in the linear equation (2x + 5y = 7) is (y = \frac{7 - 2x}{5}).
- The height (h) in conical structures can be derived from (h = \frac{3V}{S^2}), where (S) is the base area.
Geometric Applications
- To fill an aquarium measuring (2) feet wide and (3) feet long with a volume of (9) cubic feet, the height of the water must be (1.5) feet.
Interest Calculations
- Mr. Morgan's investment to earn (5400) dollars at (4.5%) interest will take (6) years.
Travel and Rate Problems
- If Mary and her father traveled (420) miles with (3) times the distance in the afternoon compared to the morning, the morning distance equals (105) miles.
Equation Types
- Conditional equations yield a finite number of solutions.
- Contradictions imply no possible solutions.
- Identities are valid for every possible value of the variable.
