3. Solving 1 st Power Equations in One Variable The object of 1 st power equations is to find the value of the variable (x,a,f). Here are the steps to get there: - Find a way to get the variable by its self on one side of the equal sign by doing the opposite of what is placed on in the equation (we will do more of this in the commutative property) x + 3=7  x + 3 - 3=7 - 3  x=4

4. 1 st Power Equations (cont.) Sometimes you may need to do more than just add or subtract, you will sometimes need to divide and multiply. Just keep doing the opposite of what the equation says. x * 3 = 27 y/2 = 12  x * 3 / 3 = 27 / 3  x = 9  y/2 * 2 = 12 * 2  y = 24

5. 1 st Power Equations (cont. more) Sometimes, you may have an equation with the variable on both sides of the equation. Make sure you get both variables on one side. x * 2 = 2 - x  (x + x) * 2 = 2 - x + x  x = ½  2x = 1  2x * 2 = 2

6. 1 st Power Equations (cont.) Sometimes, in special occasions, you will get a answer where the variables cancel out each other. If the both sides of the equal sign are equal, then any real number can be the variable. If not, then it’s nulset. x – 3 = x – 4 + 1 x – 3 = x – 4  {allreals}   -3 -4  -3 = -3   -3 = -4 + 1

7. 1 st Power Equations (cont. some more) Other times, there will be fractions in the equation containing the variable. Just multiply by the denominator in order for the variable to be a whole number, therefore, you can factor out the value of the variable.

8. 1 st Power Equations (cont. even more) Sometimes, the exponent will be in the denominator of a fraction. When this happens, you multiply the equation by the variable in the denominator.

28. Solving Inequalities with one Variable Solving Inequalities is just like solving equaions. The difference here is that there is either a ‘greater’ or ‘less than’ sign instead of an equal sign. Equation: x-3 = 2Inequality: x-3 > 2

29. If you multiply or divide by a negative, you must reverse the inequality sign. -2 -2x < 4 x > -2 Solution Set: {x: x > -2} Graph of the Solution:

34. Quiz Time! YOU try this problem x - 7 > -10 or -2x < 8 Click to see solution and graph -4 3 x > 3 or x < -4

36. Standard and Point-Slope Form The equation; 4x - 2y = -4 is in standard form. You can tell because of the way it is ordered. Standard form will always be; Ax + By = C The equation y = 2x + 4 is the same equation, only in Point-Slope form. The point slope form always goes; y = mx + b. This way is profitable, because it tells you the slope and the y-intercept. m = slope b = y-intercept

37. Slopes If it is a positive slope, the line will rise up from left to right and if negative it will run down Slopes are in a form where the rise (vertical) is on top (do this first) and the run (horizontal) on the bottom. What would you move if the slope was 1/5? You would move 1 up and 5 to the right

38. How to Find Intercepts Intercepts are the places where the line crosses the y-axis or x-axis. To find these in an equation, you set the variable you are not looking for to zero. EX: 3x – 2y = 25 3x – 2y = 25  -2y = 25  3x – 2(0) = 25  3x = 25  3(0) – 2y = 25  x = 8.33333....  y = -12.5

39. How To Graph When graphing, it’s easier to use the point slope form, since the slope and y-intercept are given to you already. 2x – 3y = 3  -3y = -2x + 3  y = 2/3x + 0 Hint: If there is no value of number for this place the only intercepts the origin.

40. How To Graph (cont.) Now that it is in point slope form, you can graph it. y = 2/3x + 0 Remember! Rise over Run! Start at the origin... And move up 2 spaces and right 3 spaces until you have a line! Right here Up 2 Right 3

42. Substitution Method When given an equation with 2 different variables, you can use this method. Knowing the value of one variable, you can substitute that one for its value. x + 3 = y – 7 and 2x + y = 40 2y + y – 20 = 40 That being said; x = 20 – 10  x = 10  y = 20  3y = 60 x + 3 = y – 7 is the same as x = y – 10, so if we plug it into the other equation, it will look like; 2(y – 10) + y = 40

43. Addition or Subtraction Method This method takes the two equations and adds or subtracts them together until one of the variables has cancelled out. 3x + 6y = 22 and 6x + 8y = 46 Multiply this one by two so we can subtract the ‘x’ variable out. 2(3x + 6y = 22)  6x + 12y = 22

44. Addition and Subtraction (cont.) Then subtract the two equations together, 6x + 12y = 22 -6x + 8y = 46 0x + 4y = 68  y = 17 We then plug it into an equation to get the other variable 3x + 6(17) = 22  3x + 102 = 22  3x = -80  x = 26 and 2/3

45. Consistency is when two equations are exactly the same. The Substitution method would work best. EX: 3x + y = 5 and 3x + y = 5  they are both the same Dependent is when the equations are in relation with each other. They are multiples of each other or sums or differences of each other. If an equation is Independent, then you should use the addition subtraction method EX: 3x + y = 5 and 6x + 2y = 10  are dependent because the second one is the first multiplied by two.

47. Factoring Factoring is using methods to make problems more simple. Using various properties, you can cut down on the amount of ink you use while making it easier to multiply by other things.

48. Factoring: Reverse Foil Just like foiling, but the opposite. You take a trinomial and turn it into a set of binomials Because… x*x = x2x*-1 = -x x*4 = 4x4*-1 = -4 FirstsOutsides InsidesLasts x2 + 3x + 4  (x + 4)(x – 1)

49. Factoring: PST PST is short for perfect square trinomial. You take a PST and change it into 2 binomials. x*x = x2 x*6 = 6x x*-6 = -6x 6*-6 = -36 Because... (x2 – 36)  (x – 6)(x + 6)

50. Factoring: GCF GCF is short for Greatest Common Factor. You take the greatest number (or glob) you can from a equation. (2x + 6)*(3z + 7)  2(x + 3)* z(3 + 7)

51. Factoring: Difference of Squares Finding the difference of squares involves taking 2 square numbers (or globs) and breaking it down into 2 conjugates. 4x 2 – 36x 4 You CAN NOT perform difference of squares on positive numbers IMPORTANT!!!! (2x – 6x 2 ) (2x + 6x 2 )

52. Factoring: Difference of Cubes Difference of cubes is a way to turn a cubed glob into a binomial and a trinomial X 3 – 8 + 2x(x 2 + 4) Finally, take the opposite of the product of the binomial, and place it in the middle Then, take the square of those numbers and place them on both sides First, take the cube roots of both the numbers (x – 2)

53. Factoring: Factoring by Grouping Factoring by grouping is taking the GCF of the problem and taking the result further by finding another common glob. (3x 2 – 2x) + (9x 2 – 6x) x(3x - 2) + 3x(3x – 2) (3x – 2) (x + 3x)

54. Factoring: Special Case In some cases, you will have to use both the difference of squares and the difference of cubes. X 6 – 729z 6 Difference of Squares Difference of Cubes (x 3 – 27z 3 )(x 3 + 27z 3 ) (x – 9z)(x 2 + 9xz + 81z 2 ) (x + 9z)(x 2 – 9xz + 81z 2 )

56. What the Heck does f(X) Mean? f(x) simply means ‘y’ Instead of the equation to graph being something like; y = 9x + 2, it’s now f(x) = 9x + 2 In other words, they are completely the same and do not have different functions at all

57. Domain and Range The domain is the set of inputs or ‘x’ values that you put into an equation The range is the output or the ‘y’ value of an equation y=2x+1 Here’s a example: xy 25 13 01

58. Finding a Line on a Graph Given 2 Points When given 2 points on a graph, you can find the line quite easily. First you use the slope formula; ‘m’ being the slope Then you can use this formula to find the y- intercept

59. Finding a Line on a Graph Given 2 Points (cont.) Here is an example with real numbers: Using the points (2,-3) and (4,5) when graphed it looks like this:

60. Quadratics If you find the domains and ranges of a equation like y = x 2 + x, you will see that the line will curve upward like so. This is a parabola. There is nothing wrong with what it’s doing, it’s just structured that way xy 12 01 1 -38

61. The Parabola The parabola is a line that curves downward or upward depending on the negativity or positivity of the slope. If it ever curves sideways, then something is wrong with your parabola. An Example of a correct Parabola

62. Using this graph to represent the parabola, we will look at the parts of the parabola. The vertex is the point where there is only one line with that y value The intercepts help you locate where on the graph in relation to the origin. The line of symmetry that splits the middle. It crosses the vertex

63. To find x-intercepts: – the parabola may have Zero, One or Two x- intercepts 1. Set ‘y’ or "f(x)" to zero on one side of the equation 2. Factor & use the Zero Product Prop to find TWO x-intercepts To find y-intercept, set x = 0. Note f(0) will equal c. I.E. (0, c) The equations following this will use ‘a’ and ‘b’. Any quadratic equation will have ax 2 + bx + c = f(x) d.To find the coordinates of the vertex (turning pt): 1. x-coordinate of the vertex comes from this formula: 2. plug that x-value into the function to find the y-coordinate e. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through vertex: x =

64. Now You Try! Find the Vertex, Line of symmetry, y and x intercepts for this equation: f(x) = x 2 – 2x – 8 Vertex  The vertex is the ordered pair, (-1,-9) Y-intersept  f(x) = x 2 – 2x – 8 f(x) = (0) 2 – 2(0) – 8 f(x) = 0 – 0 – 8 f(x) = -8

65. X intercept  f(x) = x 2 – 2x – 8 0 = x 2 – 2x – 8 0 = (x – 4)(x + 2) The x intercepts are (4,0) and (-2,0)

67. METHOD 1 - FACTORING Set equal to zero Factor Use the Zero Product Property to solve (Each factor with a variable in it could be equal to zero.)

68. METHOD 1 - FACTORING Any # of terms – Look for GCF factoring first! 1. 5x 2 = 15x 5x 2 – 15x = 0 5x (x – 3) = 0 5x = 0 OR x – 3 = 0 x = 0 OR x = 3 {0, 3}

69. METHOD 1 - FACTORING Binomials – Look for Difference of Squares 2. x 2 = 9 x 2 – 9 = 0 (x + 3) (x – 3) = 0 x + 3 = 0 OR x – 3 = 0 x = – 3 OR x = 3 {– 3, 3} Conjugates

70. METHOD 1 - FACTORING Trinomials – Look for PST (Perfect Square Trinomial) 3. x 2 – 8x = – 16 x 2 – 8x + 16 = 0 (x – 4) (x – 4) = 0 x – 4 = 0 OR x – 4 = 0 x = 4 OR x = 4 {4 d.r.} Double Root

71. METHOD 1 - FACTORING Trinomials – Look for Reverse of Foil 4. 2x 3 – 15x = 7x 2 2x 3 – 7x 2 – 15x = 0 (x) (2x 2 – 7x – 15) = 0 (x) (2x + 3)(x – 5) = 0 x = 0 OR 2x + 3 = 0 OR x – 5 = 0 {-3/2, 0, 5} x = 0 OR x = – 3/2 OR x = 5

72. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES Reorder terms IF needed Works whenever form is (glob) 2 = c Take square roots of both sides (Remember you will need a  sign!) Simplify the square root if needed Solve for x. (Isolate it.)

73. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES 1. x 2 = 9 x =  3 Note  means both +3 and -3! x = -3 OR x = 3 {-3, 3}

74. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES 2. x 2 = 18

75. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES 3. x 2 = – 9 Cannot take a square root of a negative. There are NO real number solutions!

76. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES 4. (x-2) 2 = 9 This means: x = 2 + 3 and x = 2 – 3 x = 5 and x = – 1 {-1, 5}

77. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES Rewrite as (glob) 2 = c first if necessary. 5. x 2 – 10x + 25 = 9 x = 8 and x = 2 {2, 8} (x – 5) 2 = 9

78. METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES Rewrite as (glob) 2 = c first if necessary. 6. x 2 – 10x + 25 = 48 (x – 5) 2 = 48

79. METHOD 3 – COMPLETE THE SQUARE The goal is to get into the format: (glob) 2 = c Method always works, but is only recommended when a = 1 or all the coefficients are divisible by a We will practice this method repeatedly and then it will keep getting easier!

80. METHOD 3 – COMPLETE THE SQUARE Example: 3x 2 – 6 = x 2 + 12x 2x 2 – 12x – 6 = 0 Simplify and write in standard form: ax 2 + bx + c = 0 x 2 – 6x – 3 = 0Set a = 1 by division Note: in some problems a will already be equal to 1.

81. METHOD 3 – COMPLETE THE SQUARE (x – 3) 2 = 12Rewrite as (glob) 2 = c x 2 – 6x – 3 = 0 Move constant to other side Leave space to replace it! x 2 – 6x = 3 x 2 – 6x + 9 = 3 + 9 Add (b/2) 2 to both sides This completes a PST!

82. METHOD 3 – COMPLETE THE SQUARE Solve for x Take square roots of both sides – don’t forget  Simplify (x – 3) 2 = 12

83. METHOD 4 – QUADRATIC FORMULA Works to solve all quadratic equations Rewrite in standard form in order to identify the values of a, b and c. Plug a, b & c into the formula and simplify! QUADRATIC FORMULA:

84. METHOD 4 – QUADRATIC FORMULA Use to solve: 3x 2 – 6 = x 2 + 12x Standard Form: 2x 2 – 12x – 6 = 0

85. METHOD 4 – QUADRATIC FORMULA

86. a.The graph is a parabola. Opens up if a > 0 and down if a < 0. b.To find x-intercepts: – may have Zero, One or Two x-intercepts 1. Set y or "f(x)" to zero on one side of the equation 2. Factor & use the Zero Product Prop to find TWO x-intercepts c.To find y-intercept, set x = 0. Note f(0) will equal c. I.E. (0, c) d.To find the coordinates of the vertex (turning pt): 1. x-coordinate of the vertex comes from this formula: 2. plug that x-value into the function to find the y-coordinate e. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through vertex: x = QUADRATIC FUNCTIONS

87. Example Problem: f(x) = x 2 – 2x – 8 a. Opens UP (positive) b. x-intercepts:0 = x 2 – 2x – 8 0 = (x – 4)(x + 2) (4, 0) and (– 2, 0) c. y-intercept: f(0) = (0)2 – 2(0) – 8  (0, – 8) d. vertex: e. axis of symmetry: x = 1

88. PRACTICE METHOD 2 – SQUARE ROOTS OF BOTH SIDES 1. x 2 = 121 x =  11 Note  means both +11 and -11! x = -11 OR x = 11 {-11, 11}

106. THE DISCRIMINANT – MAKING PREDICTIONS Four cases: b 2 – 4ac is called the discriminant 1. b 2 – 4ac positive non-square  two irrational roots 2. b 2 – 4ac positive square  two rational roots 3. b 2 – 4ac zero  one rational double root 4. b 2 – 4ac negative  no real roots

107. THE DISCRIMINANT – MAKING PREDICTIONS Use the discriminant to predict how many “roots” each equation will have. 1. x 2 – 7x – 2 = 0 2. 0 = 2x 2 – 3x + 1 3. 0 = 5x 2 – 2x + 3 4. x 2 – 10x + 25=0 49–4(1)(-2)=57  2 irrational roots 9–4(2)(1)=1  2 rational roots 4–4(5)(3)=-56  no real roots 100–4(1)(25)=0  1 rational double root

108. THE DISCRIMINANT – MAKING PREDICTIONS about Parabolas The “zeros” of a function are the x-intercepts on it’s graph. Use the discriminant to predict how many x-intercepts each parabola will have and where the vertex is located. 1. y = 2x 2 – x - 6 2. f(x) = 2x 2 – x + 6 3. y = -2x 2 – 9x + 6 4. f(x) = x 2 – 6x + 9 1–4(2)(-6)=49  2 rational zeros 1–4(2)(6)=-47  no real zeros 81–4(-2)(6)=129  2 irrational zeros 36–4(1)(9)=0  one rational

109. THE DISCRIMINANT – MAKING PREDICTIONS Note! The “zeros” of a function are the x-intercepts on it’s graph. Use the discriminant to predict how many x-intercepts the parabola will have. The “roots” of an equation are the x values that make the expression equal to zero. Equations have roots. Functions have zeros which are the x-intercepts on it’s graph.

110. FOUR METHODS – HOW DO I CHOOSE? Some suggestions: Quadratic Formula – works for all quadratic equations, but first look for a “quicker” method. You must rewrite into standard form before using Quad Formula! Don’t forget to simplify square roots and use value of the discriminant to predict the number of roots or zeros. Square Roots of Both Sides – use when the problem can easily be put into the form: glob 2 = constant. Examples: 3(x + 2) 2 =12 or x 2 – 75 = 0

111. FOUR METHODS – HOW DO I CHOOSE? Some suggestions: Factoring – doesn’t always work, but IF you can see the factors, this is probably the quickest method. Examples:x 2 – 8x = 0 has a GCF 4x 2 – 12x + 9 = 0 is a PST x 2 – x – 6 = 0 is easy to FOIL Complete the Square – It always works, but if you aren’t quick at arithmetic with fractions, then this method is best used when a = 1 and b is even (so no fractions). Example: x 2 – 6x + 1 = 0

112. QUADRATIC FORMULA – Derive it by Completing the Square! Start with Standard Form: ax 2 + bx + c = 0

114. Simplifying Expressions with Exponents Using the Product of Powers Property: x 2 * y 3 * z 7 * z 5 = x 7 y 3 z 7 Using the Power of a Product Property: (x * y / z) 4 = (x 4 y 4 )/z 4 Using the Power of a Power Property: (x 3 * y 2 / z 7 )4 = (x 12 y 8 )/z 28

115. Quotient of Powers: Power of a Quotient: Zero Power Property:

116. Negitive Power Property: Root of a Power Property: Power of a Root Property:

118. Factor and Cancel with Irrational numbers The expression; is not simplified all the way. you can divide 18 into 9 and 2. Since 9 is a square, you can get the square root of that and put it on the outside of the radical sign.

119. Addition and Subtraction of Radicals You can add and subtract radicals also. However, them must have the same number inside the radicals and can not be added with numbers without radicals. Remember! You can’t add radicals with whole numbers!

120. Multiplication of Radicals You may also multiply and divide radicals. Using the equation;, you can see that you just take what is inside the radical and multiply it with the others.
