how to change mixed numbers to improper fractions?

- multiply the denominator by the number of wholes - Add the numerator example: 1 3/4 = 4*1 and 4+3 = 7/4

Surface Area of a Cylinder

2πrh+2πr²

Terms

A number, a variable, or a product of numbers and variables.

Surface area formula

A= 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

Area of a triangle

A=1/2bh

Area of a rectangle

A=lw

Area of a circle

A=πr²

Natural numbers

Counting numbers, 1-10

rational exponents

Exponents written as fractions

Rational numbers

Fractions

congruent

Having the same size and shape

Integers

Not all are whole numbers or natural numbers, integers have negative numbers

Commutative Property

Numbers can be added or multiplied in any order and you will still get the same answer

Perimeter of a triangle

P=a+b+c

Volume of a cone

V=1/3πr²h

Volume of a sphere

V=4/3πr³

Volume of a cylinder

V=πr²h

cordinate plane

a method of identifying a point on a graph relative to a set of lines

Composite numbers

a number greater than 1 that can be divided by a number other than 1 and itself

Prime numbers

a number that is divisible by only 1 and itself (positive)

outlier

a number that is significantly greater or smaller than the rest of the data

ray

a part of a line that starts at an endpoint and extends forever in one direction

Proportion

a set of ratios that are equal to each other example: 1 pound of beef to make 4 patties, the ratio 1:4 1/4 = x/500 (cross multiply) 1*500 = 4*x = 4x = 500 (divide by 4 on both sides to get x alone) = 1/4 = 125/500

histogram

a visual way to display frequency data using bars, not used to show categorical data

scientific notation

a way to write large or small numbers in a way that makes them useable example: 200 = 2 * 10^2

Addition

and, combined, increased, more, plus, sum

Divisibility

being able to be divided equally by a certain number

multiplication

by, multiply, product, times, of

subtraction

decreased, difference, less, minus, take away

distance formula

distance = rate * time (d= rt)

division

divide, goes into, per, quotient

Dividing fractions and mixed numbers

flip the second fraction, multiply the fractions, simplify as needed example: 9/10 divided by 4/5 = 9/10 * 5/4 = 45/40 = 9/8

Like terms

individual terms that have the same variable

Finding a common denominator

multiply the denominators together example: 3/4 > 7/2 = 6/8 > 4/8

Multiplying Fractions and Mixed Numbers

multiply the numerators, multiply the denominators, and simplify the fraction if needed example: 1/4 * 2/5 = 2/20 = 1/10

line segment

part of a line with two endpoints

basic shapes in geometry

polygon, quadrilateral, and parallelogram

Probability

probability = possible choices / total number of options

rate formula

rate = distance / time (r = d/t)

mean

the average, add together all of the numbers in your data set then divide that sum by the numbers of addends

range

the difference between the highest and lowest values

median

the middle number when listed in order from least to greatest

mode

the number that occurs most often in your data set

combining like terms

the process of simplifying expressions by joining terms that have the same variable

Real numbers

the set of all rational and irrational numbers

time formula

time = distance / rate (t = d/r)
