Study Notes

Solving Equations and Inequalities

  • Absolute Value Equations: |x| + 5 = 0 has no solution because the absolute value of a number is always non-negative.
  • Absolute Value Inequalities: |x| + 5 ≥ 0 is always true because the addition of a positive number to a nonnegative number results in a nonnegative number.

Equations of Lines

  • Two-Point Form: To find the equation of a line passing through two given points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), use the formula: (y - y₁) = ((y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)) * (x - x₁)

Systems of Linear Inequalities

  • Graphing: Graphical solutions involve plotting the boundary lines of each inequality and shading the region that satisfies all the inequalities simultaneously.
  • Intersection: The solution to a system of linear inequalities is the intersection of the solution sets of the individual inequalities.
  • Example: y ≥ 3x + 4 and y > -3x + 5 are inequalities to be graphed for intersection points.

Algebra Review

  • Order of Operations: Follow PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction) when evaluating expressions.
  • Exponents: Simplify expressions with exponents correctly (e.g., (x-5)⁻³).
  • Properties of Exponents: Rules for manipulating exponents (e.g., (a⁵b⁻³c⁻²) / ((a⁴/b)²)).

Word Problems

  • Revenue and Tickets: In a word problem about ticket sales where the total tickets sold and collected revenue is known, set up and solve equations to determine the number of tickets of each type.
  • Example: Adult tickets at $15 and student tickets at $10 to determine the number of each type of ticket sold given total revenue.
