Study Notes
Conditional Equation
- True for certain values of the variable but not for others.
Contradiction Equation
- An equation with no solution, exemplified by x = x + 1.
Identity Equation
- An equation that holds true for any value assigned to the variable.
Union Symbol
- Represented by "U" and indicates the use of "or."
Intersection Symbol
- Denoted by an upside-down "U" and signifies the use of "and."
Slope-Intercept Formula
- The formula to find the equation of a line: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Slope Formula
- Calculated as (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) to determine the steepness of a line.
Parallel Lines
- To identify parallel lines in an equation, they must have the same slope but different y-intercepts.
Perpendicular Lines
- Lines are perpendicular if their slopes (m) are opposite reciprocals of one another.
Finding the X-Intercept
- To find the x-intercept of a function, set y to 0 and solve for x.
Finding the Y-Intercept
- To find the y-intercept, set x to 0 and solve for y.
Consistent System
- A system of equations or inequalities with at least one solution.
Inconsistent System
- A system characterized by having no solutions at all.
Dependent System
- A system of equations with infinitely many solutions due to matching lines.
Independent System
- A system of equations that results in exactly one unique solution.
