Study Notes
Integer Operations
- Addition:
- Commutative property: a + b = b + a
- Associative property: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
- Distributive property: a + (-a) = 0
- Subtraction:
- Defined as adding the additive inverse: a - b = a + (-b)
- Multiplication:
- Commutative property: a × b = b × a
- Associative property: (a × b) × c = a × (b × c)
- Distributive property: a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c
- Division:
- Defined as multiplying by the multiplicative inverse: a ÷ b = a × (1/b)
Number Lines
- A visual representation of integers on a straight line, with:
- Positive integers to the right of 0
- Negative integers to the left of 0
- 0 in the middle
- Used to visualize and compare integers, and to perform operations like addition and subtraction
Prime Numbers
- A prime number is a positive integer that is divisible only by itself and 1
- Examples: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ...
- Characteristics:
- Greater than 1
- Not divisible by any other number except 1 and itself
Odd and Even Numbers
- Even numbers:
- Integers that are divisible by 2 (e.g., ..., -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, ...)
- Can be written in the form 2k, where k is an integer
- Odd numbers:
- Integers that are not divisible by 2 (e.g., ..., -3, -1, 1, 3, ...)
- Can be written in the form 2k + 1, where k is an integer
Place Value
- The value of a digit in a number depends on its position or place
- Places in a number, from right to left:
- Units (ones) place
- Tens place
- Hundreds place
- Thousands place
- ...
- Each place has a value 10 times the value of the place to its right
