Topics from your past…Ch 1 • • • • • • Fractions operations (+ - X / ) Rounding decimals – place names Decimal to percent to fraction Order of Operations: PEMDAS (MD, AS left to right as a grouping) Factoring: Prime & Composite numbers Primes: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47 Prime Factorization (make tree) Least Common Multiple (LCM) Ex: find the LCM of 2, 5, 6, 9 LCM=90
The Real Number Line and Inequalities 1. 1 a
Real Number Classifications • Real Numbers: the numbers found on a Number Line Hawkes slide 11 • Irrational Numbers: decimals repeating without a pattern (pi, e, non-perfect square roots) • Rational Numbers: zero, non-decimals, fractions, repeating decimals, perfect squares • Integers: positive/negative non-decimal numbers, zero • Whole Numbers – zero, positive integers • Natural (counting) Numbers – positive integers • • Example: Classify 7 in the Real Number System Try it… Classify -1/2 in the Real Number System
Number Line • Draw a number line • Label the number line • Plotting points
Inequalities • • • • Inequality Symbols – Hawkes slide 17 Read either left to right or right to left Example: show on a number line all Comparing fractions: rewrite with a common denominator if you can’t determine • Example: Graph and compare ¾ and 2/3
Try it… • Show on a number line all • Graph and compare and
Absolute Value 1. 1 b
Absolute Value • Absolute Value: the distance from zero on number line • Example: Use a number line to show |5| |-3| • What about…
Absolute Value of a Variable • Variable: a letter whose value may change • What values of x make this true? • What about…
Graphing Absolute Value • Example: Graph the solution: • Try it… Graph the solution:
