    Study Notes

    Algebra Terms and Properties

    • Distributive Property involves multiplying a value by every term inside parentheses (think arrows).
    • Zero Property states any value multiplied by zero equals zero.
    • Absolute Value measures the distance from zero, always results in a non-negative number (e.g., |-2| = 2 and |2| = 2).
    • When multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number, flip the inequality symbol.

    Intercepts and Functions

    • An intercept is the crossing point on a graph; use graphing tools to find intercepts by tracing.
    • A function must have unique x-values (no repeats) and pass the Vertical Line Test.

    Domain and Range

    • Domain consists of all possible x-values (inputs or independent variables).
    • Range encompasses all possible y-values (outputs or dependent variables).

    Variation

    • Direct Variation is represented by the equation Y = KX, where the graph passes through the origin. K can be any real number.
    • Inverse Variation can use equations like Y = K / X or XY = K; its graph is a mirror image from the axes.

    Linear Functions

    • The equation Y = MX + B defines linear functions, where M is slope and B is y-intercept. The graph is always a straight line.
    • Slope (M) also known as Rate of Change, is found by (change in Y) / (change in X).

    Systems of Equations and Inequalities

    • Systems of Equations involve two or more equations (e.g., 5x + 6y = 30). Solutions can be found graphically by locating intersections.
    • Systems of Inequalities consist of two or more inequalities where the shaded region represents solutions; dashed lines indicate exclusions.

    Quadratic Equations

    • Quadratic equations have X squared as the highest exponent and graph as a parabola (U-shaped). The general form is Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0.
    • To solve quadratic equations, factor them and set each factor to zero.

    Terminology

    • Solutions, roots, and x-intercepts all refer to points where the graph meets the x-axis.

    Exponent Rules

    • For multiplying exponents with the same base, add the exponents (e.g., X^4 * X^7 = X^11).
    • "Power to Power" means to distribute the outer exponent to each inner exponent (e.g., (2x^3)^4 = 16x^12).
    • Any term raised to the zero power equals one.
    • For exponents with the same base in division, subtract the exponents.
    • Negative exponents indicate a reciprocal (switch positions in fractions).

    Best Fit Lines and Evaluation

    • Determine if the data fits a line or curve by using regression methods in graphing tools (e.g., Linear Regression or Quadratic Regression).
    • To evaluate expressions, find the value of variables by plugging in values, and the store feature on calculators can assist in this process.

    Cube Roots

    • Cube roots simplify similar to square roots, focusing on cube factors.
