    Study Notes

    Solving Equations

    • To solve for x in the equation 2x + 3 = 11, you would use subtraction and division.
    • First, subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the 2x term.
    • Then, divide both sides by 2 to solve for x.

    Greatest Common Divisor

    • The greatest common divisor (GCD) is the largest number that divides two or more numbers without leaving a remainder.
    • The GCD of 36 and 60 is 12.

    Coefficients

    • In a polynomial expression, the coefficient is the numerical factor that multiplies a variable.
    • In the equation y = 3x² + 2x - 5, the coefficient of x is 2.

    Function Composition

    • Function composition involves combining two or more functions.
    • The notation (f ∘ g)(x) represents the composition of function f with function g.
    • To calculate (f ∘ g)(2), first find g(2), which is 2² = 4.
    • Then, substitute 4 into the function f(x) to find f(4), which is 2(4) + 4 = 12.
    • Therefore, (f ∘ g)(2) is 12.

    Properties of Equality

    • Properties of equality are rules that allow you to manipulate equations while preserving their truth.
    • Some common properties include the reflexive property (a = a), the symmetric property (if a = b, then b = a), and the transitive property (if a = b and b = c, then a = c).
    • One property that is NOT a property of equality is the distributive property.
    • The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac, which is a property of multiplication, not equality.
