Study Notes
Proportionality and Algebraic Equations
- The additive inverse of -5 is 5.
- If y is directly proportional to x, then y increases as x increases, and the relationship between y and x can be represented by the equation y = kx, where k is a constant.
- Rationalization is the process of removing radical expressions from the denominator of a fraction, often used when solving algebraic equations.
- If y is inversely proportional to x, then y decreases as x increases, and the relationship between y and x can be represented by the equation y = k/x, where k is a constant.
- The multiplicative inverse of 2/3 is 3/2.
Solving Algebraic Equations
- The solutions for x in the equation 3x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0 can be found by factoring or using the quadratic formula.
- The additive inverse of the expression -7x^3 + 4x^2 - 6x + 9 is 7x^3 - 4x^2 + 6x - 9.
- The solutions for x and y in the equation 5x^2 - 3xy + 2y^2 = 0 can be found by factoring or using substitution or elimination methods.
Direct Proportionality
- If m is directly proportional to n^2, then m = kn^2, where k is a constant.
- If m = 25 when n = 5, then the value of m when n = 10 can be found by substituting n = 10 into the equation m = kn^2, given the initial condition.
