Study Notes
Math - Algebra
Algebra is a branch of mathematics that deals with mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols. It involves using letters and numbers in equations and formulas to solve problems and find unknown values. In algebra, variables represent quantities whose size can change from one problem to another. These variables and their manipulation can represent any quantity, such as people's ages, distances between cities, or the number of students in a class.
Basic Operations
In algebra, basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division can be performed on both real numbers and algebraic expressions. For example:
x + y = z (addition)
x - y = z (subtraction)
xy = z (multiplication)
x / y = z (division)
where x and y are variables representing any quantity, and z is a constant or variable whose value we want to find.
Solving Equations
Solving equations means finding the value(s) of the variable(s) when we fill in all the known information into the equation. We can also check if our solution is correct by substituting it back into the original equation. If the left side of the equation equals the right side, then we have found the solution to the equation.
For example, consider the following equation:
3x + 4 = 9
To solve this equation, we need to isolate the variable x. We can do this by performing operations on both sides of the equation that will eliminate the other terms. Here's how you might go about solving this particular equation:
Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation
3x + 4 - 4 = 9 - 4
3x = 5
Step 2: Divide both sides by 3
(3x)/3 = 5/3
x = 5/3
So, the solution to the equation 3x + 4 = 9 is x = 5/3. To check this solution, substitute x = 5/3 back into the original equation:
3(5/3) + 4 = 9
15/3 + 4 = 9
Since (15 + 12)/3 = 27/3, which is not equal to 9, our solution of x = 5/3 is not correct. This means that there must be another solution, or that we made an error when solving the equation. In this case, it turns out that one possible solution is x = -1. To find this second solution, we would have to go back and try a different approach, such as guess and check, or using algebraic properties like the distributive property or inverse operations (subtraction and division).
Simplifying Algebraic Expressions
Simplifying algebraic expressions involves performing various operations on them in order to make them easier to work with. This includes combining like terms, factoring, or using the properties of exponents. For example:
x^2 + x = x(x + 1) (factoring)
2x + 3 + 4 = 2x + 7 (combining like terms)
Factoring
Factoring is the process of breaking down an expression into simpler terms using multiplication. For example, we can factor the expression x^2 + 2x + 1 by finding two numbers that multiply to give x^2 + 2x + 1 and add up to give 2x + 1. In this case, those numbers are (x + 1) and (x + 1), so we can write:
x^2 + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)(x + 1)
Combining Like Terms
Combining like terms means adding or subtracting terms that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, if we have the expression 3x^2 + 2x^2 + 5x^2, we can combine the terms as follows:
3x^2 + 2x^2 + 5x^2 = 10x^2
Exponents
Exponents are used to show how many times a base is used in a product. For example, 5^2 represents 5 * 5, and 3^3 represents 3 * 3 * 3. The base is the number being multiplied, and the exponent is the number of times it is multiplied. Exponents can also be used to simplify expressions, such as x^2 + 2x + 1 can be written as (x + 1)^2.
Algebraic Equations
Algebraic equations are mathematical statements that set the value of an algebraic expression equal to a particular value. For example, the equation x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0 is an algebraic equation. These equations can be solved using various methods, such as guess and check, or by using algebraic properties like factoring or the quadratic formula.
Quadratic Equations
Quadratic equations are algebraic equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants and x is the variable. Quadratic equations can be solved using various methods, including factoring and the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula is a general method for solving any quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a is different from zero. It states that given the constants a, b, and c, there are two solutions to this equation:
x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a
where √ denotes the square root. This formula works because it follows the properties of exponents and algebra.
Solving Systems of Equations
Solving systems of equations involves finding the values of the variables that satisfy multiple equations at once. These values can be found by performing operations on both sides of each equation to make them equal, then combining the resulting equations into one larger system that can be solved as a single equation. For example, consider the following system of equations:
x + y = 5
x - y = 1
