... Algebraic Expressions and the Basic Rules of Algebra The terms of an algebraic expression are those parts that are separated by addition. For example, x2 – 5x + 8 = x2 +(–5x) + 8 has three terms: x2 and –5x are the variable terms and 8 is the constant term. The numerical factor of a term is called ...

... integers, S, what is the probability, P(S), that the lottery ticket drawn will be in S? I suggest that we can answer this question by building a hyperreal number, which is a sequence of real numbers.1 Each term of the sequence is a fraction. Denominators are 1, 2, 3, 4…. Each numerator is the number ...

... The check the universal property of D−1R, suppose φ0 : R → R0 is a ring homomorphism with φ(D) ⊂ (R0)∗. The ring homomorphism h : D−1R defined by h([(r, d)]) = φ(d)−1φ(r) has the property we want. In the following examples, we’ll write dr for the equivalence class [(r, d)] ∈ D−1R. Example: Suppose R ...

Chapter 2 Algebra Review 2.1 Arithmetic Operations
... We briefly cover an extension of the Perfect Square formula we had, namely (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2. If we multiply both sides by (a+b) and simplify we get another ‘binomial expansion’: (a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3. Before we give a general formula for (a + b)n we define the ‘Factorial Notation’ ...
