Concept Review Purpose: The purpose of the following set of slides is to review the major concepts for the math course this year. Please look at each problem and how to solve them. Then attempt to solve the second problem on your own. If you have difficulty it would be good to come see me and ask questions. Exponents • With exponents it is important to remember that the variables can represent any number. We cannot do anything with a variable that we could not do with a number, because variables are any number. • A good strategy when working with exponents is to put a number in for the variable. If it works with the number than this would be how you would solve the problem with exponents. • *** Refer back to the exponent lesson under the trimester two heading for a more in depth explanation. Exponents continued • Simplify 1) X A) X SOLUTION: *X = 1 X X=0 X = (XXXXXXXX) X 1 (XXX) B) C (xxx) 1 **Multiply by reciprocal (XXXXXXXX) (XXX) = (XXXXXXXXXX) or X Practice • Simplify 1 X X X X Exponents Continued Simplify: X F X F X Solution Rewrite it so that all of the X’s are together and all of the F’s are together then add the exponents. X F Exponents Continued Solve: 4 Pattern • Another way to understand exponents and x to the negative n is to look at the pattern 5 5 5 5 5 = 125 = 25 = 5 = 1 = 1/5 Each time we divide by 5. Therefore 1 5 = 1 x 1/5 when we invert and multiply we get 1/5. Concept 2 Solve 4 * 7 We use the same method as with exponents. Solution: 1 X 49 4 1 1 256 X 49 1 = 49 256 Practice Solve 1) 5 7 * 2 6 Defining y=mx using similar triangles and Linear Equations Y = mx Defining y=mx using similar triangles and Linear Equations y = mx The equation y = mx is the algebraic way of representing what is drawn on the graph. The m is the y or rise over the run. Looking at the coordinate plane above we can then x begin to graph the line. Caution : Remember that points are expressed as (x,y) Don’t Reverse the m and place the x or y in the incorrect position. This will flip the line your Intending to express. Note that the line on the graph forms triangles in a linear fashion. You can use similar Triangles to determine if a line is linear. The slopes should be the same when simplified. Example Problem y = mx Given an m value of 1 please graph 3 (x,y) points and use similar triangles to show 2 that the line is linear. Solution: Note: the y or rise value is 1 and the x or run value is 2. That means for every 1 I rise I move over two. This pattern continues. There are three triangles found at each point That all simplify to a 1:2 ratio. Triangle 1 (2,1) Triangle 2 (4,2) Triangle 3 (6,3) Practice Problem y = mx Given an m value of 3 please graph 3 (x,y) points and use similar triangles to show 4 that the line is linear. Solution: Practice Problem y = mx Given the equation y = -4 x please graph. 2 Note: The negative refers to the rise Not the run so we will be in quadrant 4 The next x, y would be either (-8,4) or 0,0 Solution: Practice Problem y = mx Given the equation y = 4 x please graph. -2 Note: The negative refers to the run Solution: Practice Problems Given the equation y = 3 x please graph. 2 Given the equation y = -3 x please graph. -2 Given the equation y = 3 x please graph. -2 Given the equation y = -3 x please graph. 2 y = mx + b Thus far I have only presented you with lines that pass through the point of origin or (0,0). By adding b to the equation y = mx +b we can shift the line up or down on the y axis The original lines depending on whether the value for Slope of ½ has not changed it simply has b is positive or negative. been shifted from (0,0) on the y axis to (3,0) making the equation y=1 x+3 2 Practice Problems with y = mx + b Given the equation y = 3 x + 3please graph. 2 Given the equation y = -3 x + -3 please graph. -2 Given the equation y = -3 x + 5 please graph. Given the equation y = 3 x +3 please graph. -2 2 Caution: When we did not have a value for b the first point matched the slope values. This will not be the case with a b value. Follow the slope as a like a set of directions form the b value or new origin.
