    Study Notes

    Linear Equations and Functions

    • Cartesian Coordinate System consists of two perpendicular number lines: x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical).
    • Relations: Associations between two quantities forming ordered pairs (inputs vs. outputs).
    • Functions: Special type of relation with a unique output for each input; can be tested using the vertical line test.
    • Function notation expresses functions concisely, written as f(x) where f represents the function name, and x is the input.

    Special Products

    • Product of Two Binomials: (ax + b)(cx + d) = acx² + (ad + bc)x + bd; involves multiplying first, outer, inner, and last terms.
    • Square of a Binomial: (a ± b)² = a² ± 2ab + b²; square first term, then double the product of the two terms, followed by squaring the last term.
    • Difference of Two Squares: (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²; involves squaring the first term and subtracting the square of the last term.

    Factoring

    • Factoring Quadratic Trinomials: acx² + (ad + bc)x + bd = (ax + b)(cx + d); involves finding factors of the first and last terms that add up to the middle term.
    • Perfect Square Trinomial: a² ± 2ab + b² = (a ± b)²; determined by taking square roots of the first and last terms.
    • Difference of Two Squares: a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b); involves square roots of both terms.

    The Cartesian Coordinate System

    • Origin: Intersection of x and y axes at (0,0).
    • Coordinates: Written as ordered pairs (x, y).
    • Quadrants: Four regions of the plane:
      • Quadrant 1: (+, +)
      • Quadrant 2: (-, +)
      • Quadrant 3: (-, -)
      • Quadrant 4: (+, -)

    Relations

    • Independent Variable: Can change freely; acts as the cause.
    • Dependent Variable: Value influenced by the independent variable; represents the effect.
    • Domain: Set of all x-values in a relation.
    • Range: Set of all y-values in a relation.
    • Types of Relations:
      • One-to-One: Unique pairing for every element.
      • One-to-Many: One element pairs with multiple.
      • Many-to-One: Multiple elements pair with one.

    Functions

    • Functions: Introduced by Leibniz, are relations where every input has one output; all functions are relations, but not vice versa.
    • Examples of Functions: { (1,1), (2,8), (3,27) }
    • Vertical Line Test: Determines if a relation is a function by checking intersection points.
    • Special Types of Functions:
      • Polynomial Function: Non-negative integer exponents (e.g., quadratic).
      • Constant Function: Same output for various inputs; horizontal graph.
      • Linear Function: Straight line, expressed as f(x) = mx + b.
      • Absolute Value Function: Outputs non-negative values, even if input is negative, expressed as f(x) = |x|.
      • Quadratic Function: Highest exponent of 2 indicates a polynomial with a parabolic graph.
