    Study Notes

    Key Concepts in Algebra 1

    • Relation: Pairing of two quantities, essential in understanding relationships between variables.

    • Function: A specific type of relation where each x-value corresponds to a single y-value, ensuring consistency in outputs.

    • Vertical Line Test: A graphical method to determine if a relation is a function; if a vertical line intersects a graph more than once, it is not a function.

    • Mapping Diagram: Visual representation that shows multiple ordered pairs and how inputs are related to outputs.

    • Rate of Change: Commonly known as slope; indicates how much the y-value changes for a change in the x-value.

    • Types of Slope:

      • Positive: rises from left to right.
      • Negative: falls from left to right.
      • Undefined: vertical line with no slope.
      • Zero: horizontal line with no rise.

    • Y-Intercept: The point where a line intersects the y-axis, indicating the output when x is zero.

    • Box and Whisker Plot: A statistical tool that divides data into quartiles, effectively showing distribution and variability.

    • Absolute Value: Represents the distance of a number from zero on the number line, always non-negative.

    • Open Circle: Indicates that a number is not included in a solution set.

    • Closed Circle: Signifies that a number is included in a solution set.

    • X Values: Refers to the domain, which includes all possible inputs or independent variables.

    • Y Values: Correspond to the range, encompassing all possible outputs or dependent variables.

    • Mean: The average of a data set, calculated by summing all values and dividing by the count.

    • Median: The middle value in an ordered data set, effectively separating the higher half from the lower half.

    • Mode: The value that appears most frequently in a data set.

    • Range: The difference between the highest and lowest values in a data set, providing insight into variability.

    • Operations with Exponents:

      • Multiply like bases: Add the exponents.
      • Divide like bases: Subtract the exponents.
      • Power to a power: Multiply the exponents.

    • Evaluate: The process of solving mathematical expressions for a specific value.

    • Interpret: The act of explaining or making sense of information or data.

    • Linear Function: Represented by straight lines; constant rate of change.

    • Nonlinear Function: Represented by curves; variable rate of change.

    • GCF (Greatest Common Factor): The largest factor that two or more numbers share.

    • LCM (Least Common Multiple): The smallest multiple that is common to two or more numbers.

    • Probability: The likelihood of an event occurring, calculated as favorable outcomes over total possible outcomes.

    • Independent Events: Events that do not influence each other's outcomes.

    • Factoring: The process of breaking down expressions into simpler components. Key questions include GCF extraction and recognition of patterns like difference of squares.

    • Negative Exponents: Do not result in negative values but instead represent reciprocal relationships.

    • Like Terms: Terms that share the same variable and exponent, allowing for combination in simplification.

    • Rational Numbers: Numbers that can be expressed as a fraction terminating or repeating.

    • Irrational Numbers: Numbers that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction; they neither terminate nor repeat.

    • Binomial: An algebraic expression consisting of two terms.

    • Trinomial: An algebraic expression that includes three terms.

    • Monomial: An algebraic expression that consists of a single term.

    • Degrees of Polynomials:

      • Degree of 0: Constant
      • Degree of 1: Linear
      • Degree of 2: Quadratic
      • Degree of 3: Cubic

    • Inequalities:

      • Types include one variable, two variable, and compound inequalities.
      • Notation includes greater than or less than signs.

    • Equation: A mathematical statement that asserts equality between two expressions.

    • System of Equations: A set of equations with the same variables, solved simultaneously.

    • Systems Solutions:

      • One solution: Lines intersect at one point (e.g., x=#, y=#).
      • Infinite solutions: Lines overlap (e.g., one line represented by an equation like 3=3).
      • No solution: Lines are parallel and never intersect (e.g., 0=3).

    • Types of Sequences:

      • Arithmetic: Constant difference between terms.
      • Geometric: Constant ratio between terms.

    • Sample Space: The set of all possible outcomes in a statistical experiment.

    • Favorable Outcome: The specific result you desire from an event or experiment.
