Introduction to Algebra 2Real Numbers and Their Properties CCSS: N.RN.3
Domain: The Real Number System • Clusters: Use properties of rational and irrational numbers • Standards: N.RN.3 EXPLAIN why the sum or product of two rational numbers is rational; that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational; and that the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational. N.RN.3
A set is a collection of objects called the elements or members of the set. Set braces { } are usually used to enclose the elements. In Algebra, the elements of a set are usually numbers. • Example 1: 3 is an element of the set {1,2,3} Note: This is referred to as a Finite Setsince we can count the elements of the set. • Example 2: N= {1,2,3,4,…} is referred to as a Natural Numbers or Counting Numbers Set. • Example 3: W= {0,1,2,3,4,…} is referred to as a Whole Number Set. Write sets using set notation
A set is a collection of objects called the elements or members of the set. Set braces { } are usually used to enclose the elements. • Example 4: A set containing no numbers is shown as { } Note: This is referred to as the Null Set or Empty Set. Caution: Do not write the {0} set as the null set. This set contains one element, the number 0. Example 5: To show that 3 “is a element of” the set {1,2,3}, use the notation: 3 {1,2,3}. Note: This is also true: 3N Example 6: 0 N where is read as “is not an element of set” Write sets using set notation
Two sets are equal if they contain exactly the same elements. (Order doesn’t matter) • Example 1: {1,12} = {12,1} • Example 2: {0,1,3} {0,2,3} Write sets using set notation
In Algebra, letters called variables are often used to represent numbers or to define sets of numbers. (x or y). The notation {x|x has property P}is an example of “Set Builder Notation” and is read as: {x x has property P} the set of all elements x such that x has a property P • Example 1: {x|x is a whole number less than 6} Solution:{0,1,2,3,4,5} Write sets using set notation

The notation {x|x has property P}is an example of “Set Builder Notation” and is read as: {x x has property P} the set of all elements x such that x has a property P • Example 2: {x|x is a natural number greater than 12} Solution:{13,14,15,…} Write sets using set notation
-2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 • One way to visualize a set a numbers is to use a “Number Line”. • Example 1: The set of numbers shown above includes positive numbers, negative numbers and 0. This set is part of the set of “Integers” and is written: I = {…, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …} Using a number line
Graph of -1 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 o o o coordinate • Each number on a number line is called the coordinate of the point that it labels, while the point is the graph of the number. • Example 1: The fractions shown above are examples of rational numbers. A rational number is one than can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, with the denominator not 0. Using a number line
o o o o o Graph of -1 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 o o o coordinate • Decimal numbers that neither terminate nor repeat are called “irrational numbers”. • Example 1: Many square roots are irrational numbers, however some square roots are rational. • Irrational: Rational: Using a number line
The following sets of numbers will be used for this course: • N - Natural numbers or Counting Numbers: {1, 2, 3, …} • W – Whole numbers: {0, 1, 2, 3, …} • I – Integer numbers: {…,-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …} • R - Rational numbers: • IR – Irrational numbers: {x| x is a real number that is not rational} • RN- Real numbers: {x| x is represented by a point on a number line} The common sets of numbers

For any real number x, the number –x is the additive inverse of x. Example 1: Finding Additive inverses
Examples: Find : To find the absolute value of a signed number: Caution: The absolute value of a number is always positive Using the Absolute Value
Equality/Inequality Symbols: Caution: With the symbol, if either the or the = part is true, then the inequality is true. This is also the case for the symbol. Using Inequality Symbols

Example: Add (–5.6) + (-2.1) = • Example: To add signed numbers: • If the numbers are alike, add their absolute values and use the common sign. • If the numbers are not alike, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. Use the sign of the larger absolute value. Adding Real Numbers

Using Exponents • If “a” is a real number and “n” is a natural number, then an = a•a•a•••a•a (n factors of a). where n is the exponent, a is the base, and an is an exponential expression. Exponents are also called powers. • To find the value of a whole number exponent: • 100 = 1, 20 = 1, 80 = 1, #0 = 1 • 101 = 10, 21 = 2, 81 = 8, #1 = # • 102 = 10 x 10 = 100, 22 = 2 x 2 = 4, 82 = 8 x 8 = 64 • 103 = 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000, 23 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 • 104 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10,000 24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16 • (-10)3 = (-10)(-10)(-10) (12).5 =
