25
Rational number
A number that can be turned into a fraction where d is NOT 0. All integers are rational numbers because all integers can be n/1.
26
Equivalent fractions
Any fraction can be multiplied by the same nonzero integer to create an equivalent fraction. Any fraction can have the same common factor factored out to be reduced to an equivalent fraction.
27
Adding and subtracting fractions with same denominator | 3/11 + 2/11
Add straight across. Keep the denominator the same. | 3/11 + 2/11 = 5/11
28
Adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators | 1/3 + -2/5
Find a common denominator. Convert both fractions to equivalent fractions with the same denominator. Add numerators and keep common denominator. 1/3 + -2/5 1/3 = 5/15 and -2/5 = -6/15 5/15 + -6/15 = -1/15
29
Multiplying fractions | 8/7)(7/3
Multiply the two numerators. Multiply the two denominators. | (8/3)(7/3) = 56/9
30
Dividing fractions | 17/8 \ 3/5
Invert the second fraction (find the reciprocal). Multiply the first fraction by the inverted fraction. 17/8 * 5/3 = 85/24
31
Mixed number
Integer plus a fraction
32
Converting a mixed number to a fraction | 4 3/8
Convert the integer part to an equivalent fraction. Add the fraction. 4 = 32/8 + 3/8 = 35/8
33
Base and exponent | 3ˆ4
``` 3 = base 4 = exponent ```
34
A negative number raised to an even power is always... | (-3)ˆ2
Even | 9
35
A negative number raised to an odd power is always... | (-3)ˆ3
Odd | -27
36
(-3)ˆ2= | -3ˆ2
``` (-3)ˆ2 = 9 -3ˆ2 = -(3)(3) = -9 ```

a | 3
42
√(aˆ2)= | √4=
a | √4 = √(2ˆ2) = 2
43
√a √b= | √3√10
√ab | √30
44
√a/√b = | √5/√15=
√ab | √5/√15 = √5/15 = √1/3
45
For odd order roots
There is exactly ONE root for EVERY number n, even when n is negative
46
For even order roots
There are exactly TWO roots for every POSITIVE number and NO roots for any NEGATIVE number
47
3√8 (cube root)= 4√8 (4th root)= -4√8 (- 4th root)= 4√-8 (4th root of a negative number) =
1 cube root (2) 8 is positive so has two 4th roots-- 4 and -4 -8 is negative, so no 4th root because the root is positive and the number is negative (imaginary numbers)
48
irrational number
a number whose decimal does not terminate or repeat; cannot be written as a fraction
49
The set of real numbers consists of...
all rational and irrational numbers
50
Organize the sets from smallest to largest: Imaginary numbers Rational numbers Integers Real numbers
Integers Rational numbers Real numbers Imaginary numbers (separate set)
51
Absolute value
The distance between the number X and zero on the number line.
52
r(s + t) =
(rs) + (rt)
53
if rs = 0, then... ex: -2s=0
either r is 0, s is 0, or both are 0 -2s=0, s=0
54
|r + s| is... | ex: |3+ -6|
less than or equal to |r| + |s| |3+-6| = |-3| = 3 |3| + |-6| = 3 + 6 = 9
55
|r||s| = | |5||-2|
|rs| | |(5)(-2)| = |-10| = 10
56
If r is greater than 1, then rˆ2 is... If r is between 0 and 1, then rˆ2 is...
greater than r (5, 5ˆ2=25) less than r (1/25 is less than 1/5)
57
2 apples and 3 oranges in a basket | What is the ratio?
2 apples to 3 oranges or 2/3 | Can be reduced like a fraction
58
Proportion and how to solve
``` An equation relating two ratios: 9/12 = X/4 Solve by cross multiplying: 9x = 36 x = 36/9 = 4 ```
59
Solving for percents proportion
part / whole = percent / 100
60
Percent increase/decrease formula
amount of increase/decrease over base (original amount)
