|a+b| relation with |a|+|b|
This is always true:
|a+b|≤|a|+|b|
When |a+b|=|a|+|b|, this means:
- One or both quantities are 0
Or - Both quantities have the same sign.
|a-b| relation with |a|-|b|
This is always true:
|a-b|≥|a|-|b|
When |a-b|=|a|-|b|, this means:
- The second quantity is 0
Or - Both quantities have the same sign and the absolute value of |a-b| is greater than or equal to absolute value of |a|-|b|.

Weighted Average Equation
Boundaries of a weighted average
The weighted average of two different data points will be closer to the data point with the greater number of observations or with the greater weighted percentage.
Median
When a set of numerically ordered, the median is the value in the middle of the arranged set.
Calculate the Median with. an Odd # of Terms
Calculate the Median with. an Even # of Terms
Mean = Median
In any evently spaced set, the mean of the set is equal to the median of the set.
EXCEPT this situation: {1, 2, 4, 5}
Mode
The mode is the number that appears most frequently in a data set.
Range of sequence
= Highest number in a set - Lowest number in a set
Standard deviation range
High value = mean + x(sd)
Low value = mean - x(sd)
Two important Standard Deviation rules
Standard deviation = Zero

Avoide your fucking careless mistakes
Never tag it as mastered you idiot!
- Read carefully, word-by-word, slow down, in data sufficiency use the stem
- Place more focus when checking the beginning of your working!
- Estimate the accuracy of your final answer!
- Do not 🚫 get excited too soon! Double-check your work: After answering a question, go back and review your answer to make sure it makes sense and that you didn’t make any mistakes.
- Correctly select your final answer
- Within the solving:
- Write large, neat, and clear.
- Write out the math you’re doing on both sides of the equation every time you simplify.
- Every time you simplify or reduce, think through exactly what you’re doing and why it works.
- Don’t try to do too much at once. If you’re translating a word problem into math, you don’t have to translate the whole thing into a single, complex equation. It’s just as good to create two simpler equations, then combine them later.
- Don’t miss the units.
- One step at a time.
If your answer shows that a boy runs 2.4km in 2mins or the price of a pencil is $2000 or the bank interest rate is 80% etc, you should guess that something is off. Time to check your work again!

Data sufficiency
The length of a certain rectangular solid is 13. If the dimensions of the solid are all integers, what is its volume?
- The area of one of the faces of the rectangular solid is 52.
- The area of one of the faces of the rectangular solid is 12.
From statement two, we know that two of the edges of the rectangular solid must multiply together to equal 12.
This provides three different options for these two edges:
12 and 1, 6 and 2, and 3 and 4.
However, each of those options, along with the given length of 13, will give us the same volume of 156 (12 × 1 × 13 = 156, 6 × 2 × 13 = 156 and 3 × 4 × 13 = 156).
Statement two is sufficient to answer the question.
