Study Notes
Real Numbers
- Real numbers consist of different kinds of numbers, including natural, whole, integer, rational, and real numbers.
- A number can belong to more than one set of numbers.
Properties of Real Numbers
- Commutative Property of Addition:
a + b = b + a
- Commutative Property of Multiplication:
a · b = b · a
- Associative Property of Addition:
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
- Associative Property of Multiplication:
(a · b) · c = a · (b · c)
- Identity Property of Addition:
a + 0 = a = 0 + a
- Identity Property of Multiplication:
a · 1 = a = 1 · a
- Inverse Property of Addition:
a + (-a) = 0 = (-a) + a
- Inverse Property of Multiplication:
a · 1/a = 1 = 1/a · a
, wherea ≠0
- Closure Property:
a + b
is a real number.
Applying Properties of Real Numbers
- Using the Distributive Property to evaluate expressions:
a(b + c) = ab + ac
- Simplifying algebraic expressions using the properties of real numbers.
- Examples of applying properties to simplify expressions:
3(2q + r) + 5(4q - 7r)
,3(4x - 2y) - 2(3x + y)
Examples and Applications
- Finding the total cost of items using the properties of real numbers.
- Calculating the sales tax charged using the properties of real numbers.
- Earning money and calculating total earnings using the properties of real numbers.
- Simplifying expressions and finding the additive and multiplicative inverses of numbers.
- Applying the properties of real numbers to real-world problems, such as construction and lawn care.
