2.5 Section Exercises

It is a second-degree equation (the highest variable exponent is 2).

We want to take advantage of the zero property of multiplication in the fact that if a ⋅ b = 0 a ⋅ b = 0 then it must follow that each factor separately offers a solution to the product being zero: a = 0 o r b = 0. a = 0 o r b = 0.

2.6 Section Exercises

This is not a solution to the radical equation, it is a value obtained from squaring both sides and thus changing the signs of an equation which has caused it not to be a solution in the original equation.

He or she is probably trying to enter negative 9, but taking the square root of −9 −9 is not a real number. The negative sign is in front of this, so your friend should be taking the square root of 9, cubing it, and then putting the negative sign in front, resulting in −27. −27.

A rational exponent is a fraction: the denominator of the fraction is the root or index number and the numerator is the power to which it is raised.

When we divide both sides by a negative it changes the sign of both sides so the sense of the inequality sign changes.

We start by finding the x -intercept, or where the function = 0. Once we have that point, which is ( 3 , 0 ) , ( 3 , 0 ) , we graph to the right the straight line graph y = x −3 , y = x −3 , and then when we draw it to the left we plot positive y values, taking the absolute value of them.

Math With Mrs. Molina

There are two things we must give children: the first one is roots and the other wings., unit 3: equations and inequalities, click here to go to the ixl website for all kinds of 8th grade topics and review problems..

What is an equation?

Examples: 4 + 3  = 7        or        3x + 5 = 10

An equation is a number sentence. We call it an equation because it has an equal sign.

The 5 Steps to Writing an Equation or Inequality

Step 1. read and  underline   the question, step 2. find your   χ  (your variable/unknown) and box it, step 3. circle the math words  (product, quotient, each,                per, together, sum, difference, squared ), step 4 . replace the operation words with their symbols (              • , + , – ,  ÷ , / , = , < , > , ≤ , ≥ ,√ , ≠ , ² , ³ ), step 5. write the equations.

  Don’t forget our cool ‘dance’ we did to remember this!

WRITING EQUATIONS PRACTICE PROBLEMS:

With Equations, Inequalities and Expressions we always want to combine like terms 1st!

Here is an example on how to do that:

Once all like terms have been combined then we can solve.

Solving Equations Algebraically

Here is another example solving algebraically, solve √(x/2) = 3.

And the more “tricks” and techniques you learn the better you will get.

Here is an example of how we solved equations in class:

Systems of Equations

For information on systems of equations click here ., simple vs. compound  interest, introduction to interest :.

http://www.mathsisfun.com/money/interest.html

SIMPLE INTEREST

  I = Prt  

• I = interest owed  [$] (this is ONLY the interest borrowed)
• P = amount borrowed (called “Principal”)  [$]
• r = interest rate   [%] (you have to divide the percent by 100)  For information On Percents click here !
• t = time    [years]

Simple interest is money you can earn by investing some money (the principal). The interest (percent) is the rate that makes the money grow!

COMPOUND INTEREST

  A = P(1+r)^t  

• A = All of it / Actual / total amount owed (this amount includes the interest and the principal)   [$]
• P = amount borrowed (called “Principal”)    [$]
• r = interest rate     [%]

Compound interest is very similar to simple interest. The difference is that compound interest grows much faster ! The reason it grows faster is because the interest (percent) has an exponent .

********** MAKE SURE TO READ THE QUESTION AND SEE EXACTLY WHAT IT IS ASKING DOES IT JUST WANT THE INTEREST OR THE TOTAL (All of it) ???????? *************************

ADDITIONAL COMPONENTS INCLUDED:

(1) Links to Instructional Videos: Links to videos of each lesson in the unit are included. Videos were created by fellow teachers for their students using the guided notes and shared in March 2020 when schools closed with no notice.  Please watch through first before sharing with your students. Many teachers still use these in emergency substitute situations. (2) Editable Assessments: Editable versions of each quiz and the unit test are included. PowerPoint is required to edit these files. Individual problems can be changed to create multiple versions of the assessment. The layout of the assessment itself is not editable. If your Equation Editor is incompatible with mine (I use MathType), simply delete my equation and insert your own.

(3) Google Slides Version of the PDF: The second page of the Video links document contains a link to a Google Slides version of the PDF. Each page is set to the background in Google Slides. There are no text boxes;  this is the PDF in Google Slides.  I am unable to do text boxes at this time but hope this saves you a step if you wish to use it in Slides instead! 

How does this unit compare to your Pre-Algebra Equations and Inequalities Unit? This unit is similar in that it contains similar topics. However, all material has been rewritten to ensure there is no duplication. The biggest differences between this Math 7 unit and Pre-Algebra Curriculum include no square roots equations, special solutions, multi-step equation word problems, or multi-step inequalities. The material is also presented at a slighter slower pace.

This resource is included in the following bundle(s):
