Section 1.1 Numbers and Their Properties
Write a set of numbers using roster or set–builder notation. A OBJECTIVES
Write a rational number as a decimal. B OBJECTIVES
Classify a number as natural, whole, integer, rational, irrational, or real. C OBJECTIVES
Find the additive inverse of a number. D OBJECTIVES
Find the absolute value of a number. E OBJECTIVES
Given two numbers, use the correct notation to indicate equality or which is larger. F OBJECTIVES
DEFINITION NATURAL NUMBERS The set of numbers used for counting.
DEFINITION WHOLE NUMBERS The set of natural numbers and zero.
DEFINITION INTEGERS The set of whole numbers and their opposites(negatives).
DEFINITION RATIONAL NUMBERS All numbers that can be written as the ratio of two integers.
DEFINITION IRRATIONAL NUMBERS Numbers that cannot be written as ratios of two integers.
DEFINITION REAL NUMBERS Numbers that are either rational or irrational:
DEFINITION ADDITIVE INVERSE The additive inverse(opposite) of a is –a.
DEFINITION ABSOLUTE VALUE The distance between a and 0 on the real-number line
CAUTION The absolute value is always positive or zero.
DEFINITION TRICHOTOMY LAW If given any two real numbers, only one of three things is true: a is equal to b, denoted by a = b, or a is less than b, denoted by a < b, or a is greater than b, denoted by a >b.

Section 1.2 Operations and Properties of Real Numbers
Add, subtract, multiply, and divide signed numbers. A OBJECTIVES
Identify uses of the properties of the real numbers. B OBJECTIVES
PROCEDURE TO ADD TWO NUMBERS WITH THE SAME SIGN: Add their absolute values and give the sum the common sign.
PROCEDURE TO ADD TWO NUMBERS WITH DIFFERENT SIGNS: Find the absolute value. Subtract the smaller from the greater number. Use the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.
DEFINITION ADDITIVE IDENTITY For any real number a:
DEFINITION SUBTRACTION OF SIGNED NUMBERS If a and b are real numbers:
DEFINITION ADDITIVE INVERSE For any real number a:
PROCEDURE SIGNIFY MULTIPLICATION
PROCEDURE MULTIPLYING NUMBERS WITH OPPOSITE SIGNS To multiply a positive number by a negative number, multiply their absolute values and make the product negative.
DEFINITION SIGNS OF MULTIPLICATION PRODUCTS Same signs: Positive(+) Different signs: Negative(–)
DEFINITION IDENTITY FOR MULTIPLICATION For any real number a:
DEFINITION MULTIPLICATION OF FRACTIONS
DEFINITION DIVISION OF REAL NUMBERS If a and b are real numbers and b is not zero:
DEFINITION SIGNS OF A FRACTION For any real number a and nonzero real number b, there are two cases of signs:
DEFINITION ZERO IN DIVISION For a ≠ 0:
DEFINITION MULTIPLICATIVE INVERSE (RECIPROCAL) Every nonzero real number a has a reciprocal such that:
