  1. MAT 202 - Section 7.1 By Dr. Marinas

  2. Properties of Equalities • If a=b and b=c, then a=c. (Transitive Prop.) • If a=b, then a + c = b + c. (Addition Prop.) • If a=b, then ac = bc. (Multiplication Prop.)

  3. Equality ScalesKeeping the Balance 2x - 4 = 8 2x - 4 + 4 = 8 + 4 (Addition Property of =) 2x = 12 (Simplification) 1 * 2x = 1 * 12 (Multiplication Property of =) 22 x = 6 (Simplification) Check 2(6) - 4 = 8

  4. Properties of Inequalities • If a>b and b>c, then a>c. (Transitive Prop.) • If a>b, then a + c > b + c. (Addition Prop.) • If a>b and c>0, then ac > bc. (Multiplication Prop.) • If a>b and c<0, then ac < bc. (Multiplication Prop.)

  5. Inequality -2x - 4 > 8 -2x - 4 + 4 > 8 + 4 (Addition Prop. of Ineq.) -2x > 12 (Simplification) -1 * -2x < -1 * 12 (Mult. Prop. of Ineq.) 22 x < -6 (Simplification) Check --- Try any number less than -6. -2(-7) - 4 > 8

  6. Understanding the Problem Devising a Plan Carrying out the Plan Looking Back Pages 19-36 in Text Polya’s Problem Solving Steps

  7. New First Class Stamps • What is the new cost of a stamp? 34 cents each • How much would 5 stamps cost? .34 * 5 = $1.70 • How much would 10 stamps cost? .34 * 10 = $3.40 • How much would “n” stamps cost? .34 n

  8. New Stamps’ Table

  9. Formula for Stamps • Find a formula for Cost (c) in terms of Number of Stamps (n). c = .34n • Find a formula for Number of Stamps (n) in terms of Cost (c). n = c/.34 • How did you get these formulas?
