Q

|x-y| =?

A

|y-x|

Distance between two points on a number line

Square both sides, cancel like items and solve for X

17
Q

|x| > or = to X

A

X < |x|, then x<0

X = |x|, then x > or = 0

26
Q

Quadrilateral angles - number of variables

A

4

27
Q

Parallelogram angles - number of variables

A

2

28
Q

Units digit reoccurs after ever ____ the Power

A

4th power

29
Q

Finding a remainder? List steps where one other remainder and divisor is given

If N/8 has a remainder of 1, what is the remainder when n/4 ?

A

N/8 r 1

N = 8p + 1

80 + 1 = 1
8
1 + 1 = 9
8*2 + 1 = 17

Etc.

Check whether 4xp + ___ is the same for each

30
Q

Solving for a remainder when you have to sets of divisors and remainders but neither is sufficient

A

Find the overlapping first number of both

Add the least common multiple of the divisors to the overlapping number and keep adding the LCM to see if there is consistent remainder

31
Q

Remainder for numbers divided by 3 or 9

A

Add the sum of all digits in the number

32
Q

Remainder after division by 4 or 8

A

For 4, same as the 10s (e.g., 398, look at 98)

For 8, same as the 100s (e.g., 24,899, look at 899)

33
Q

Determining number of factors

A

Take the distinct prime factors, list out their exponents to make the number

Add 1 to each exponent

Multiply the resulting numbers together

MAKE SURE THAT THE PRIME FACTORS ARE NOT EQUAL TO EACH OTHER, IN CASE OF VARIABLES

34
Q

GREAT COMMON DIVISOR

A

Minimum value of all exponents of the numbers

E.g, take the prime factorization of each number

Prime numbers not shared between the numbers will drop out
Prime numbers that are shared will use the prime number with the smaller exponent

35
Q

LCM least common multiple

A

Max value of the exponents

If a prime isn’t shared between them, it will be included
For primes that are shared, the one with the larger exponent will be included

36
Q

For two numbers A and B . . .

A

A = a x GCD and B = b x GCD, where a and b are relative prime numbers

LCM = abG

AB = LG

37
Q

Terminating Decimal . . .

A

Only prime factors in the denominator are 2 or 5
