  1. Chapter 3 Solving Equations Introduction to Equations Equation: equality of two mathematical expressions. = 9 + 3 = 12 3x – 2 = 10 y² + 4 = 2y - 1

  2. Solution to an equation, is the number when substituted for the variable makes the equation a true statement. Is –2 a solution or 2x + 5 = x² - 3 ? Substitute –2 in for the x 2(-2) + 5 = (-2)² - 3 -4 + 5 = 4 - 3 1 = 1

  3. Solve an equation Addition Property r – 6 = 14 r – 6 = 14 We use the Addition + 6 +6method by adding positive 6 to both sides of the equation. r = 20 *CHECK your solution

  4. Solve an equation s + ¾ = ½ - ¾ -¾ Using the Addition Method add a negative ¾ to both sides. s = -¼ Remember to get a common denominator. Check your solution.

  5. Solving Equations 3y = 27 Using the Multiplication Method we divide by the coefficient, which is the same as multiplying by ⅓ 3y = 27 33 y = 9 Check your solution

  6. Solving Equations Using the multiplication method we multiply the reciprocal of the coefficient to both sides. X = 10 Check 4/5(10) = 8 8 = 8

  7. Solving Equations: 2 Step 6x + 12 = 36 6x + 12 = 36 - 12 -12 Addition Method 6x = 24 6x = 24 Multiplication Method 6 6 x = 4 Check

  8. Basic Percent EquationsPercent • Base = AmountP • B = A 20% of what number is 30 multiply B equals .2 • B = 30 B = 150

  9. Basic Percent EquationsPercent • Base = AmountP • B = A What Percent of 80 is 70 P multiply equals P • 80 = 70 P = .875 Convert to percentage. P = 87.5%

  10. Basic Percent EquationsPercent • Base = AmountP • B = A 25% of 60 is what? multiply equals amount .25 • 60 = A 15 = A

  11. Steps to solve equations: 1. Remove all grouping symbols • Look to collect the left side and • the right side. • Add the opposite of the smallest • variable term to each side. • Add the opposite of the constant • that’s on the same side as the • variable term to each side.

  12. Steps to solve equations continued 5. Divide by the coefficient. *variable term = constant term *if the coefficient is a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal. 6. CHECK the solution.

  13. Ex. Solving Equations 3x – 4(2 – x) = 3(x – 2) - 4 3x – 8 + 4x = 3x – 6 – 4 Distribute 7x – 8 = 3x - 10 Collect like terms Add opposite of the Smallest variable term -3x -3x 4x – 8 = -10 + 8 + 8 4x = -2 Add the opposite of the constant 4 4 Divide by the Coefficient. x = -½

  14. Ex. 2 Solving Equations -2[4 – (3b + 2)] = 5 – 2(3b + 6) -2[4 – 3b – 2] = 5 – 6b - 12 -8 + 6b + 4 = 5 – 6b - 12 6b – 4 = -6b - 7 Collected 12b – 4 = -7 Added 6b Added 4 12b = -3 Divided by 12 and reduced b = ¼ CHECK

  15. Translating Sentences into Equations Equation-equality of two mathematical expressions. Key words that mean = equals is is equal to amounts to represents

  16. Ex. Translate: “five less than a number is thirteen” n - 5 = 13 n = 18 Solve

  17. Translate Consecutive Integers Consecutive integers are integers that follow one another in order. Consecutive odd integers- 5,7,9 Consecutive even integers- 8,10,12

  18. CHAPTER 4 POLYNOMIALS Polynomial: a variable expression in which the terms are monomials. Monomial: one term polynomial 5, 5x², ¾x, 6x²y³ Not: or 3 Binomial: two term polynomial 5x² + 7 Trinomial: Three term polynomial 3x² - 5x + 8

  19. Addition and Subtraction Polynomials can be added vertically or horizontally. Collect like terms Horizontal Format Ex. ( 3x³ - 7x + 2) + (7x² + 2x – 7) 3x³ + 7x² - 5x - 5

  20. Addition and Subtraction Vertical Format Ex. ( 3x³ - 7x + 2) + (7x² + 2x – 7) ³ ² ¹ º 3x³ - 7x + 2 +7x² + 2x – 7 Organized in columns by the degree 3x³+7x² - 5x - 5

  21. Subtraction Horizontal Format (-4w³ + 8w – 8) – (3w³ - 4w² - 2w – 1) Change subtraction to addition of the opposite (-4w³ + 8w – 8)+(-3w³ + 4w² + 2w + 1) -7w³ + 4w² + 10w - 7

  22. Subtraction Vertical Format (-4w³ + 8w – 8) – (3w³ - 4w² - 2w – 1) Change subtraction to the addition of the opposite ³ ² ¹ º -4w³ + 8w - 8 -3w³ + 4w² +2w + 1 -7w³ - 4w² + 6w - 9

  23. Multiplication of Monomials Remember x³ = x • x • x & x² = x • x Then x³ • x² = x • x • x • x • x = x5 RULE 1 xn• xm = x n+m when multiplying similar bases add the powers. Ex. y4• y • y3 = y 4+1+3 = y8

  24. Multiplying Monomials Ex. (8m³n)(-3n5) *Multiply the coefficients, *Multiply similar bases by adding the powers together -24m3n6

  25. Simplify powers of Monomials (x4)3 = x4• x4 • x4 = x4 + 4 +4= x12 Rule 2 (x m)n = xmn Multiply the outside power with the power on the inside. Rule 3 (xmyn)p = xmpynp Ex. (5x²y³)³ = 51•3x2•3y3•3 = 125x6y9

  26. Simplify Monomials Continue Ex. (ab²)(-2a²b)³ Rule 3: Multiply the outside power to inside powers. (ab²)(-8a6b³) -8a7b5 Rule 1: multiply the Monomials by adding the exponents

  27. Multiplication of Polynomials Distribute and follow Rule 1 -3a(4a² - 5a + 6) -12a³ + 15a² - 18a

  28. Multiplication of two Polynomials *when multiplying two polynomials you will use Distributive Property. *be sure every term in one parenthesis is multiplied to every term in the other parenthesis.

  29. Multiplication of two Polynomials Ex. (y – 2)(y² + 3y + 1) Multiply y to every term. Multiply –2 to every term. y³ + 3y² + y - 2y² - 2 - 6y Combine like terms. y³ + y² - 5y - 2

  30. Multiply two Binomials The product of two binomials can be found using the FOILmethod. F First terms in each parenthesis. O Outer terms in each parenthesis. I Inner terms in each parenthesis. L Last terms in each parenthesis.

  31. Multiply two Binomials Ex. (2x + 3)(x + 5) O F F O I L +15 (2x + 3)(x + 5) = 2x² +10x +3x I L Collect Like Terms 2x² + 13x + 15

  32. Special Products of Binomials Sum and Difference of two Binomials (a + b)(a – b) Square the first term Square the second term a² - b² Minus sign between the products

  33. Sum and Difference of Binomials (2x + 3)(2x – 3) Square the term 2x - 4x² 9 Square the term 3 Minus sign between the terms

  34. Square of a Binomial (a + b)² = (a + b)(a + b) Then FOIL Or use the short cut (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b² 1. Square 1st term 2. Multiply terms and times by 2. ab times 2 = 3. Square 2nd term

  35. Square of a Binomial Ex. (5x + 3)² = 25x² + 30x + 9 Square 5x Multiply 5x and 3 then times by 2 Square the 3

  39. Integer ExponentsZero and Negative Exponents Rule 5 a0 = 1 a ≠ 0 x³ x³ = x3-3 = xº *Summary any number (except for 0) or variable raised to the power of zero = 1

  40. Integer ExponentsZero and Negative Exponents x-n = 1 xn Rule 6: 1 X-n = xn and 1 1 If we make everything a fraction, we can see that we take the base and it’s negative exponent and move them from the numerator to the denominator and the sign of the exponent changes.
