Study Notes

Number Types in Algebra II

  • Natural Numbers: Consist of all positive counting numbers starting from 1 (e.g., 1, 2, 3, ...).
  • Whole Numbers: Extend natural numbers by including zero (e.g., 0, 1, 2, 3, ...).
  • Integers: Comprise whole numbers along with their negative counterparts (e.g., ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...).

Rational and Irrational Numbers

  • Rational Numbers: Any number expressible as a fraction p/q where p and q are integers, and q is not zero; includes repeating and terminating decimals (e.g., 1/2, 0.75).
  • Irrational Numbers: Numbers that cannot be written as a simple fraction; represented by nonterminating, nonrepeating decimals (e.g., √2, Ï€).

Additional Key Concepts

  • Absolute Value: Represents the distance of a number from zero on the number line, always non-negative (e.g., |−3| = 3).
  • Extraneous Solution: A solution derived from an equation that does not satisfy the original equation; must be checked for validity.
