Q

Converting repeating decimals into fractions

A

multiply by either 10, or 100 or, until the numbers that aren’t repeated are whole numbers then subtract by x (x = #) then divide by either 9 or 99.

Q

What is the difference between linear and non-linear patterns?

A

Linear patterns grow at a constant rate. If you graph them, they form a straight line. Non-linear patterns do not grow at a constant rate.

Q

Evaluating Expressions

A

When you evaluate an expression it gives you the value of the unknown number in an equation, so you then add the value into the equation then you solve it.
Example:
x = 2

4(4 * 8x) + 3x
4(4 * 16) + 6
16 * 64 + 6
= 1030

Q

Visual Patterns

A

Patterns like
Example:
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0
0
Then you draw the previous and the next graph, see how it’s growing( a number), see how it’s changing, see what the Initial condition is/seeing how it starts, then graph it, and make an equation.

Q

Square Roots

A

The square root of a number is what two number multiplied by each other equal that number.

Example:
The square root of 81 is 9 because 9 times 9 equals 81.

17
Q

Cube Roots

A

The cube root of a number is what three numbers multiplied by each other equal that number. Like what number to the power of 3 equals the number.

Example:
The cube root of 64 is 4 because 4 times 4 times 4 equals 64.

18
Q

Rational numbers

A

Any number that can be expressed as the fraction of two integers.
Example:
6.46 repeating

19
Q

Irrational numbers

A

Any number that cannot be expressed as the fraction of two integers.
Example:
Anything with PIE is an irrational number.

20
Q

Whole numbers

A

They are numbers that are not negative numbers and they don’t need to be represented with a decimal or fraction.
Example:
28,100

21
Q

Integers

A

All integers are whole numbers and rational numbers.
Example:
240

22
Q

Exponents with negative integer base and integer bases

A

Exponents with integer base: -5^2 = positive 25

Exponents with negative bases: (-2/4)^2 = negative 4/16
