Translation: Decimal Expansions of Rational Numbers: Fact: The decimal expansions of rational numbers either or Examples! 1 4 = ( This is a terminating decimal.) 4 9 = (This is a repeating decimal.)

3 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 1.1! Page 3 You know how to express a terminating decimal as a fraction. For example.25 = 25, but how 100 do you express a repeating decimal as a fraction? 2. Express these repeating decimals as the quotient of two integers: a) or.37 Let x = Then 100x = b).123 Let x = Then There are a lot of rational numbers, but there are even more irrational numbers. Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the quotient of two integers. Their decimal expansions never terminate nor do they repeat. Examples of irrational numbers are The union of the rational numbers and the irrational numbers is called the or simply the. It is denoted by.

5 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 1.1! Page 5 Properties of Real Numbers Notice that the commutative property considers the of the numbers. When demonstrating the associative property, the order of the numbers stays the same but the changes. When do we use the commutative property of addition? Consider ! The rules for order of operation tell us to add left to right, but the commutative property of addition allows us to change the order to make our life easier: = When do we use the associative property of multiplication? Consider = Is subtraction commutative? Example: Is division commutative? Example: Consider ( 12 3) 4 = while 12 ( 3 4) = So is subtraction associative? Consider ( 12 3) 4 = while 12 ( 3 4) = So is division associative?

6 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 1.1! Page 6 Notice that there are 2 identities: The additive identity is.! The multiplicative identity is. Notice there are 2 kinds of inverses. The additive inverse of 4 is. Note that The additive inverse of -9 is. Note that What is true about the sum of a number and its additive inverse? Every real number has an additive inverse. In rigorous settings, subtraction is defined as addition with the additive inverse. In other words 5 2 = 5 + ( 2) or more generally a b = a + ( b) The multiplicative inverse of 4 is. Note that The multiplicative inverse of -9 is Note that What is true about the product of a number and its multiplicative inverse? Almost all of the real numbers have a multiplicative inverse. Which real number does NOT have a multiplicative inverse?

So, in general x + y A solution set is the set of values that make a (mathematical) statement true. Interval Notation Determine the solution sets for the following inequalities Number Line Inequality Interval Notation x 3 x > 3 x > 3 x < 3 This kind of bracket indicates that the endpoint of the interval is included. This kind of parenthesis means that the endpoint of the interval is not included. The interval notation for this set 3 x < 3 is!!

For a, b!, a = 0 and b Another way to say this: a fraction is zero when its is zero and its is not. This concept will be very important when we solve rational equations like 1 x +1 = x x Notation inconsistency: When we write 4x it means the product of 4 and x. When we write it means the sum of 4 and is usually called a mixed number whereas the corresponding is termed an improper fraction. There is nothing improper about an improper fraction.

11 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 4.4! Page Linear Equations in Two Variables A is any set of ordered pairs of real numbers. A relation can be finite: {(-3, 1), (-3, -1), (0, 5), (1, -3), (2, 3)} This is a set of ordered pairs of real numbers, so it is a. Each ordered pair of real numbers corresponds to a on the Cartesian plane. The set of all points corresponding to a relation is the of the relation. Graph the relation given above. The of a relation is the set of all first elements of the ordered pairs. The of a relation is the set of all second elements of the ordered pairs. What is the domain of this relation?! What is the range of this relation?!

12 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 4.4! Page 12 A relation can be infinite: Consider {(x, y) -3 x < 2, 1< y 4} List 3 different elements of that set:!!!! Graph the relation What is the domain of this relation? What is the range of this relation? Equations can be used to define relations Consider the set {(x, y) x + y = 3} List three elements of that set:!!!! It is important to note that the elements of this relation are the solutions to the equation. Graph the relation What is the domain of this relation? What is the range of this relation?

13 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 4.4! Page 13 Consider the set {(x, y) x = y } 2 List several elements of that set. It is important to note that the elements of this relation are the solutions to the equation. What is the domain of this relation? What is the range of this relation? Consider the set {(x, y) y = x } 2 List several elements of that set. It is important to note that the elements of this relation are the solutions to the equation. What is the domain of this relation? What is the range of this relation?

14 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 4.4! Page 14 Functions True or False: A function is a relation in which no two different ordered pairs have the same first element. True or False:! A function is a relation where there is only one output (called the y-value), for each input (called the x-value). True or False:! A function is a rule that assigns exactly one element in a set B (called the range) to each element in a set A (called the domain). Which of the following represent a function? {(1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 3)} This set of ordered pairs is {(1, 3), (2, 3), (3, 3), (4, 3)} This set of ordered pairs is Functions as a Rule: 1. If f (x) = 3x + 4 then f (2) = 2. If f (x) = 3x 2 + 4x +1 then f ( 1) = Note: Order of operations dictates that 3 2 = while ( 3) 2 = These rules create sets of ordered pairs of real numbers ( x, f (x)) In these cases the domain is the set of numbers for which f (x) is defined. The range is the set of values that f (x) attains.

15 Fry Texas A&M University! Spring 2017! Math 150 Notes! Section 4.4! Page 15 The set of all points corresponding to a function is the of the function. A curve in the xy plane is the graph of a function iff no line the curve So if there is a line that the curve then the curve is the graph of a This is called {(x, y) x = y } 2 Is a relation, but It the vertical line test. {(x, y) y = x } 2 Is a relation and a It the vertical line test. So what we are seeing is that there are 2 common ways to define a function. A function can be defined with an equation such as {(x, y) y = x } 2 or a function can be defined with a rule such as {(x, f (x)) f (x) = x } 2 But having seen all of this, the truth is that we seldom use the set notation, just the equation or the f (x) notation.

When you create a table to list points to create the graph, you are determining the solutions to the equation. Solutions to linear equations in two variables are ordered pairs of real numbers that when substituted into the equation create an identity. The coordinates of all of the points on the line are solutions to the equation. How many solutions exist for this equation?

Note that for horizontal lines, Δy =, so the slope of a horizontal line is Note that for vertical lines, Δx =, The slope of a vertical line is Parallel lines do not. Parallel lines have the same. When 2 lines are perpendicular their slopes are. If the slope of the first line is m 1 = 5, then the slope of a second line perpendicular to the first line would be m 2 = Determine the equation of the line through (-1, -2) that is perpendicular to y = 3x + 4.

Also, the solution is the point on the graph where the 2 lines intersect. By Elimination Our goal will be to add or subtract the equations in a way that eliminates one of the variables. Part of the process will remind you of finding a common denominator. Why is elimination a legitimate technique? 2x + y = 1 x y = 5 Start with the first equation!!!!!! 2x + y = 1 Rewrite the equation adding 5 to both sides Substitute x y for the 5 on the left hand side.
