the use of I, X, & C to the left of larger values indicates what

independent variable

the variable that input into the set of data

independent variable

the variable that is put into the set of data, or the input, (statistics) a variable whose values are independent of changes in the values of other variables

tables

these are helpful for organizing raw data

measuring cups

these are used for measurements in pints

graduated cylinders

these are used for measurements in tablespoons

these are used for measurements in teaspoons

scales

these are used to measure weight

line graphs

these graphs show changes over a period of time or compares the relationship between 2 quantities (compare time of day to temperature)

this graph is used to compare the frequencies of an event (the number of inches of rain that fell in a certain city in the each month)

yard sticks

this is used for measurements no longer than 1 yard, 3 feet, or 36 inches

rulers

this is used for measurements no longer than 12 inches

ratio

this is used to express a relationship between 2 quantities

calipers

this is used to measure very small lengths, usually 6 inches or fewer with greater precision than a ruler

Beware of absolute value equation and inequalities in which one of the expression, or sides, contains zero or a negative number

this results in infinite solutions or no solution

proportion

this states that 2 ratios are equal- when setting up this, the numerators must be in the same units & the denominators of both ratios must be in the same units- use this formula to solve for this: units of an item = units of an item divided by units of a different # Divided by units of a different #

equilateral triangles

three equal sides, and three 60 degree angles

percentage discount & tax increase

to find the amount of discount or increase when the % is known 1. change the percentage to a decimal (or fraction) 2. multiply by the original cost 3. add or subtract accordingly

multiply/divide roots

to multiply/divide roots, deal with what's inside the root and outside the root separately

numerator

top part of fraction

The bars on histograms must

touch each other

When dividing a positive number by a negative number, the results are negative.

true

2

twice

2, Read as

twice

0 raised to the 0 power

undefined

Solving Proportions

units of an item/units of a different item = units of an item/units of a different item. Use finding cross products to solve equations. a/b = c/d solve to ad=bc

Variable

unknown quantity, x,y, or z

When should you use a chart over table?

use chart when visual presentation is important

rate of change

use proportions to determine the difference in completion times for a given task

rate of change problems

use proportions to determine the difference in completion times for a given task example: 10 pages / 1 hour = 288 pages / A hours use the method of cross products to solve: 10 x A= 288 x 1 - 10A / 10 = 288 / 10 A= 28.8 hrs

how to find the diagonal of a rectangular solid

use the pythagorean theorem twice

caliper

used t measure very small lengths

ration

used to express a relationship between 2 quantities; fractions, with colons, or with words

Rulers

used to measure no longer than 12 inches

tape measures

used to measure something no longer than 50 feet long

Intersecting Lines

vertical angles are equal, angles along a line add up to 180 degrees

how to find the volume of a rectangular solid

volume=length x width x height

how to find an angle formed by a transversal across parallel lines

when a transversal crosses parallel lines, all the acute angles formed are equal and all the obtuse angles formed are equal, any acute angle plus any obtuse angle equals 180 degrees e=g, p=r, f=h, q=s, add to 180 to make straight lines

arabic numeral system

writing numbers in a combination of 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and 9

Calculating percents is done by

written statements into mathematical equations & solving for an unknown
