Binomial special products

"difference of squares" pattern: (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2 ​ ​​​(a+b)^​2 =a^​2 +2ab +b^2 ​​ ​(a−b)^2 =a^2 −2ab +b^​2 ​​ ​​

Factoring quadratics: Perfect squares

(a+/-b)^2 = a^2 +/- 2ab + b^2 Expressions of this form are called perfect square trinomials Notice that both the first and last terms are perfect squares It is not necessary for the leading coefficient of a perfect square trinomial to be 1

isosceles

(of a triangle) having two sides of equal length.

Factoring quadratics in any form

- Factoring out the GCF (makes num easier) - Difference of Squares (If the first and last terms are perfect squares) - Perfect Square (If the first and last terms are perfect sqr and mid term is 2X their product) - Sum Product property - Grouping (two binomials even if you've to add +1)

factoring the polynomial.

-monomials by writing them as a product of other monomials. -GCF from polynomials using the distributive property -common binomial factors which resulted in an expression equal to the product of two binomials.

The number 1

1 does not fit into either category. It is neither prime nor composite.

Phi- golden ration

1.61

secant line

A line that passes through two points of a curve. The secant can be used to determine average rate of change between the two points it crosses the curve.

scientific notation

A number is written in scientific notation when there is a number greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 multiplied by a power of 10.

Solving an addition equation using inverse operations

Addition and subtraction are inverse operations Inverse operations are opposite operations that undo or counteract each other.

equation

An equation is a statement that two expressions are equal equation with a variable, we call it an algebraic equation, our goal is usually to figure out what value of the variable will make a true equation.which is called "solution to the equation."

standard form

Ax+By = C where usually A,B, and C are integers *share a factor of one=cancel all common multiples Good for finding: y & x intercept In some cases (for example when solving systems of equations), we might want to bring an equation written in another form to standard form.

Associative property of addition:

Changing the grouping of addends does not change the sum. For example, (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4)

Associative property of multiplication:

Changing the grouping of factors does not change the product. For example, (2 \times 3) \times 4 = 2 \times (3 \times 4)

Commutative property of addition:

Changing the order of addends does not change the sum. For example, 4 + 2 = 2 + 4

Commutative property of multiplication:

Changing the order of factors does not change the product. For example, 4×3=3×4

Composite numbers

Composite numbers have more than 2 factors. Composite numbers have more than one way that they can be divided into equal groups.

Factoring quadratics: Difference of squares

Every polynomial that is a difference of squares can be factored by applying the following formula a^2-b^2 = (a+b)(a-b) *perfect squares is a number that can be expressed as the product of two equal integersEX 9 is a perfect sqr b 9 = 3.3 The leading coefficient does not have to equal to 111 in order to use the difference of squares pattern. unles it is; then factor out a common factoctor

Factors

Factors are whole numbers that can evenly divide another number. Factors are whole numbers that can be divided evenly into another number without a remainder.

Factoring polynomials by taking a common factor(GCF)

Find the product of all their common prime factors Express each term as a product of the GCF and another factor. Use the distributive property to factor out the GCF. *the factored form is simply the product of that GCF and the sum of the terms in the original polynomial divided by the GCF. The common factor in a polynomial does not have to be a monomial.it can be a binomial

Factoring quadratics: leading coefficient = 1 second-degree trinomials factored from

Follows the sum-product pattern to find a & b just use solving equations with two variables method/ or the quadratic formula if x^2 is negative; factor out -1 However, not all trinomials with x^2 as a leading term can be factored

Greatest common factors

In integers: greatest integer that is a factor of both numbers. For example, the GCF of 12 and 18 is 6. We can find the GCF for any two numbers by examining their prime factorizations and circling the common ones: 12= 2.3.2 18=3.3.2 Notice that 12 & 18 have a factor of 2 and of 3 in common GCF= 3.2= 6 The variable part of the GCF for any two or more monomials will be equal to the variable part of the monomial with the lowest power of x

graph from slope-intercept

In order to graph a line, we need two points on that line. We already know that (0, b) is on the line Additionally, because the slope of the line is m, we know that the point (0+1, b+m) is also on the line

Writing decimals as fractions

Let x equal the decimal: {x = 0.7777... Set up a second equation such that the digits after the decimal point are identical: 10x = 7.7777... ​​ Subtract the two equations: 9x = 7 solve for x

Sequences {1, 3, 5, 7,...}

Ordered lists of numbers like these are called sequences. Each number in a sequence is called a term. Sequences usually have patterns that allow us to predict what the next term might be. ellipsis at the end show that the seq can be extended by using the pattern functions: We input a term number N, and the formula outputs the value of that term a(n); However, domain of sequences n—which is the set of all possible inputs of the function—is the positive integers. Notation:We prefer a(4)because it emphasizes that sequences are functions.

Prime numbers

Prime numbers are numbers with exactly 222 factors. A prime number's only factors are1 and the number itself. When there is only one possible way to divide a number into equal sized groups, that number is prime.

Slope

Slope is a measure of the steepness of a line.its inclination

equivalent systems.

Systems of equations that have the same solution produce an equivalent system by: replacing one equation by the sum of the two equations-graphing gets you two lines that are NOT parallel replacing an equation by a multiple of itself.-same line prove that they aren't equivalent by find a solution of one that is not a solution of the other.

Distributive property.or the distributive law of multiplication and division.

The math rule that allows us to break up multiplication problems

Identity property of multiplication:

The product of 111 and any number is that number. For example, 7 \times 1 = 7.

Square root

The square root of a number is the factor that we can multiply by itself to get that number. Finding the square root of a number is the opposite of squaring a number.

Identity property of addition:

The sum of 000 and any number is that number. For example, 0 + 4 = 4

General form of an absolute value equation f(x) = a [ x-h ] + k

The variable a tells us how far the graph stretches vertically, and whether the graph opens up or down. The variables h and k tell us how far the graph/the vertex/the origin shifts horizontally and vertically.

intercepts

The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis.

forms of two-variable linear equation

There are three main forms of linear equations: slope-intercept;m is slope,b is y-intercept point-slope;m is slope, (a, b) is a point on the lie standard; A,B and C are constants

Writing fractions as decimals

To convert a fraction to a decimal, we divide the numerator by the denominator.

Monomial factorization

To factor a monomial means to express it as a product of two or more monomials. Completely factoring: To factor a coefficient is to factor an integer completely, we write it as a product of primes 30= 3.5.2 and expand the variable x^3 = x.x.x

To find the y-intercept, let's substitute x by x= 0, into the equation and solve for y:

Factors and divisibility in integers

Two integers that multiply to obtain a number are considered factors of that number. 14=2⋅7 we know that 2 and 7 are factors of 14. One number is divisible: (a multiple of) by another number if the result of the division is an integer. 14/7=2 14 is divisible by 7 Their's a mutual relationship between factors and divisibility: 7 is a factor of 14 & 14 is divisibe by 7 *If a is a factor of b, then b is divisible by a, and vice versa.

Categories of numbers

We can divide almost all numbers into two categories: prime numbers and composite numbers.

negative exponents

We define a negative power as the multiplicative inverse of the base raised to the positive opposite of the power:

intercepts from a table

We're given a table of values and told that the relationship between x and y is linear. The key is realizing that the x-intercept is the point where y=0,and the y-intercept is where x=0 To find the y-intercept, we need to "zoom in" on the table to find where y=0

Use grouping to factor the quadratic expression. BUT/ it's not always possible to factor a quadratic expression of this form to (ax+b)(cx+d) using our method or any other where a,b,c,d are integers

Quadratic Formula

helps you solve quadratic equations ax^2+bx+c find the roots of a quadratic equation, i.e. the values of x where this equation is solved. when y = 0 the x-intercepts of the equation, i.e. where the curve crosses the x-axis. - If asked for the exact answer (as usually happens) and the square roots can't be easily simplified, keep the square roots in the answer, to find the number of soltions you only need to evaluate the discriminant b^2 - 4ac and it can be positive(two distinct real number solutions.), zero(repeated real number solution)., or negative(neither are real but imaginary)

The graph of a quadratic function

is a parabola, which is a "u"-shaped curve -vertex form : a( x-h )^2 + k (h, k) is the vertex x = h is the line/axis of symmetry a reveals whether the parabola concaves upwards or downwards (concavity = opening) to graph with this form we need another point -standard form: quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c x-intercepts / roots by factoring; complt sqrt & taking sqrt; quadratic formula vertex: midpoint of the solutions then plug its x oordinate to find the y

Arithmetic sequences

the pattern involves adding or subtracting a number to each term to get the next term. the difference between consecutive terms is always the same. it's called "the common difference"

Geometric sequences

the ratio between consecutive terms is always the same. We call that ratio the common ratio.

In general

to determine whether one polynomial p is divisible by another polynomial q, or equivalently whether q is a factor of p, we can find and examine p(x)/q(x) If the simplified form is a polynomial, then p is divisible by q and q is a factor of p. *If 12x^2 is a fator of 6x then 6x is divisible by 12x^2(the denminator or divisor) so let's simplfy 6x/12x^2

More than just {a list of ordered numbers}

two new ways to represent arithmetic sequences: Recursive formulas The first term of a sequence The pattern rule to get any term in a sequence from the term that comes before it Explicit formulas. This formula allows us to simply plug in the number of the term we are interested in to get the value of that term; it can have multiple equivalent formulas; BUT only the standard form gives us the first term and the common difference. Formulas give us instructions on how to find any term of a sequence.how to find a(n) for any possible n formulas use n to represent any term number and a(n) to represent the nth term of the sequence

linear/quadratic equations

variable raised to 1st power/2nd power Quaratics : this equation has two solutions; positive and negative square root which is the inverse operation of squaring Unlike linear equations, you don't expand it when it's factored out so that taking the square root is easier This symbol means "plus or minus," and it is important because it ensures we catch both solutions
