    Study Notes

    Sets

    • A set is an unordered collection of distinct objects
    • Sets can contain numbers, but not just numbers.
    • Examples of sets include a collection of even numbers, all even numbers greater than 10, etc
    • The set of natural numbers is denoted by N
    • The empty set is a set with no elements.
    • The order of elements in a set does not matter. Sets cannot have duplicate elements.

    First Quartile (Q1)

    • Q1 represents the value below which 25% of the values lie in a data set.

    Element of a Set

    • If x is an element of set A, it is denoted as x ∈ A

    Rational Numbers

    • Rational numbers include decimals like 0.3333

    Integers

    • Integers include natural numbers, their opposites, and zero

    Universal Set

    • The universal set is denoted by U

    Function

    • A function is a mapping between two sets where each member of the pre-image maps to exactly one member of the image.

    One-to-One Relation

    • In a one-to-one relation, each member of the pre-image maps to exactly one member of the image.
    • For example, in a function f(x) = 2x + 3. The image maps to one member of the pre-image

    Many-to-Many Relation

    • In a Many-to-Many relation, members of the pre-image can map to multiple numbers.

    Slope (m)

    • Slope is calculated as rise over run
    • Also written as (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

    Domain and Range of a Function

    • Domain is the set of all possible input values
    • Range is the set of all possible output values

    Quadratic Function

    • Quadratic functions are represented by the form f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

    Arithmetic Sequence

    • Formula for the nth term: an = a + (n-1)d
    • The common difference is the difference between any two consecutive terms
    • If the common difference between terms is zero, all terms are the same
    • The first term of an arithmetic sequence is a_1

    Matrices

    • Matrix is an arrangement of numbers arranged in rows and columns.
    • Order of a matrix: number of rows * number of columns; e.g., a 3x2 matrix
    • Operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication (multiplication by a scalar)
    • Identity matrix
    • Transpose of a matrix
    • Determinant of a matrix.
    • Determinants of a 2x2 matrix (ad - bc)

    Probability

    • Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring.
    • The sum of probabilities of all possible outcomes in a sample space is 1.
    • Independent events, the occurrence of one event does not affect the occurrence of the other.
    • Mutually exclusive events cannot occur together.

    Expected Value

    • Expected value is the average of all possible outcomes, weighted by their probabilities.
