Study Notes
Solving Methods
- Substitution: Solve one equation for one variable and substitute it into the other equation.
- Elimination: Multiply the equations by constants to make coefficients of one variable identical. Add or subtract the equations to eliminate the variable.
Variations
-
Direct Variation: y α x or y = kx
- One quantity increases, the other increases proportionally.
- Example: The number of items produced is directly proportional to the number of workers.
-
Inverse Variation: y α 1/x or xy = k
- Example: The speed of a car is inversely proportional to the time taken to cover a certain distance.
-
Joint Variation: y α xz or y = k xz
- Example: The volume of a gas varies jointly as the temperature and inversely as the pressure.
Mean and Continued Proportions
- Mean Proportion: a:b::b:d
- Continued Proportion: a:b::b:d
Quadratic Equations
- The standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0, where a does not equal zero.
- Methods for solving include factorization, completing the square, and the quadratic formula.
Nature of Roots
-
Discriminant (b²-4ac) determines the nature of roots.
- Real roots: The discriminant is greater than or equal to zero.
- Rational and Unequal: The discriminant is a perfect square.
- Rational and Equal: The discriminant is zero.
- Irrational and Unequal: The discriminant is positive, but not a perfect square.
- Imaginary roots: The discriminant is negative
Cube Roots of Unity
- Real cube root: 1
- Complex cube roots: -1+√3 / 2 and -1-√3 / 2
- Properties:
- The sum of all three cube roots of unity is zero.
- The product of all three cube roots of unity is 1.
- For any n ∈ Z, ω^n, where ω is a complex cube root of unity, is equivalent to one of the cube roots of unity.
Relationships between Roots and Coefficients of Quadratic Equations
- Sum of roots: -b/a
- Product of roots: c/a
Formation of Quadratic Equations
- Given the roots α and β, the quadratic equation is x² - Sx + P = 0
- S: Sum of roots
- P: Product of roots
Synthetic Division
- Method for dividing polynomials by linear polynomials to find the quotient and remainder.
Simultaneous Equations
- A set of equations with a common solution.
