On an algebra quiz, Marlene needed to factor x x 0. She wrote the following answer: (x )(x ). When she got her quiz back, Marlene found that she did not get full credit for her answer. She thought she should have gotten full credit because she checked her work by multiplication and showed that (x )(x ) x x 0. a. If you were Marlene s teacher, how would you explain to her that her answer was not entirely correct? Sample answer: When you are asked to factor a polynomial, you must factor it completely. The factorization was not complete, because x can be factored further as (x ). b. What advice could Marlene s teacher give her to avoid making the same kind of error in factoring in the future? Sample answer: Always look for a common factor first. If there is a common factor, factor it out first, and then see if you can factor further. Helping You Remember. Some students have trouble remembering the correct signs in the formulas for the sum and difference of two cubes. What is an easy way to remember the correct signs? Sample answer: In the binomial factor, the operation sign is the same as in the expression that is being factored. In the trinomial factor, the operation sign before the middle term is the opposite of the sign in the expression that is being factored. The sign before the last term is always a plus.

- Reading to Learn Mathematics Radical Equations and Inequalities Pre-Activity How do radical equations apply to manufacturing? Read the introduction to Lesson - at the top of page in your textbook. Explain how you would use the formula in your textbook to find the cost of producing,000 computer chips. (Describe the steps of the calculation in the order in which you would perform them, but do not actually do the calculation.) Sample answer: Raise,000 to the power by taking the cube root of,000 and squaring the result (or raise,000 to the power by entering,000 ^ (/) on a calculator). Multiply the number you get by 0 and then add 00. Reading the Lesson. a. What is an extraneous solution of a radical equation? Sample answer: a number that satisfies an equation obtained by raising both sides of the original equation to a higher power but does not satisfy the original equation b. Describe two ways you can check the proposed solutions of a radical equation in order to determine whether any of them are extraneous solutions. Sample answer: One way is to check each proposed solution by substituting it into the original equation. Another way is to use a graphing calculator to graph both sides of the original equation. See where the graphs intersect. This can help you identify solutions that may be extraneous. Lesson -. Complete the steps that should be followed in order to solve a radical inequality. Step If the index of the root is even, identify the values of the variable for which the radicand is nonnegative. Step Solve the Step Test inequality algebraically. values to check your solution. Helping You Remember. One way to remember something is to explain it to another person. Suppose that your friend Leora thinks that she does not need to check her solutions to radical equations by substitution because she knows she is very careful and seldom makes mistakes in her work. How can you explain to her that she should nevertheless check every proposed solution in the original equation? Sample answer: Squaring both sides of an equation can produce an equation that is not equivalent to the original one. For example, the only solution of x is, but the squared equation x has two solutions, and. Glencoe/McGraw-Hill Glencoe Algebra

- Enrichment Truth Tables In mathematics, the basic operations are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, finding a root, and raising to a power. In logic, the basic operations are the following: not (), and (), or (), and implies ( ). If P and Q are statements, then P means not P; Q means not Q; P Q means P and Q; P Q means P or Q; and P Q means P implies Q. The operations are defined by truth tables. On the left below is the truth table for the statement P. Notice that there are two possible conditions for P, true (T) or false (F). If P is true, P is false; if P is false, P is true. Also shown are the truth tables for P Q, P Q, and P Q. P P P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q T F T T T T T T T T T F T T F F T F T T F F F T F F T T F T T F F F F F F F F T You can use this information to find out under what conditions a complex statement is true. Example Under what conditions is P Q true? Create the truth table for the statement. Use the information from the truth table above for P Q to complete the last column. P Q P P Q T T F T T F F F F T T T F F T T The truth table indicates that P Q is true in all cases except where P is true and Q is false.

On an algebra quiz, Marlene needed to factor x x 0. She wrote the following answer: (x )(x ). When she got her quiz back, Marlene found that she did not get full credit for her answer. She thought she should have gotten full credit because she checked her work by multiplication and showed that (x )(x ) x x 0. a. If you were Marlene s teacher, how would you explain to her that her answer was not entirely correct? Sample answer: When you are asked to factor a polynomial, you must factor it completely. The factorization was not complete, because x can be factored further as (x ). b. What advice could Marlene s teacher give her to avoid making the same kind of error in factoring in the future? Sample answer: Always look for a common factor first. If there is a common factor, factor it out first, and then see if you can factor further. Helping You Remember. Some students have trouble remembering the correct signs in the formulas for the sum and difference of two cubes. What is an easy way to remember the correct signs? Sample answer: In the binomial factor, the operation sign is the same as in the expression that is being factored. In the trinomial factor, the operation sign before the middle term is the opposite of the sign in the expression that is being factored. The sign before the last term is always a plus.

Answers (Lesson -) Lesson - - Reading to Learn Mathematics Radical Equations and Inequalities Pre-Activity How do radical equations apply to manufacturing? Read the introduction to Lesson - at the top of page in your textbook. Explain how you would use the formula in your textbook to find the cost of producing,000 computer chips. (Describe the steps of the calculation in the order in which you would perform them, but do not actually do the calculation.) Sample answer: Raise,000 to the power by taking the cube root of,000 and squaring the result (or raise,000 to the power by entering,000 ^ (/) on a calculator). Multiply the number you get by 0 and then add 00. Reading the Lesson. a. What is an extraneous solution of a radical equation? Sample answer: a number that satisfies an equation obtained by raising both sides of the original equation to a higher power but does not satisfy the original equation b. Describe two ways you can check the proposed solutions of a radical equation in order to determine whether any of them are extraneous solutions. Sample answer: One way is to check each proposed solution by substituting it into the original equation. Another way is to use a graphing calculator to graph both sides of the original equation. See where the graphs intersect. This can help you identify solutions that may be extraneous.. Complete the steps that should be followed in order to solve a radical inequality. Step If the index of the root is even, identify the values of the variable for which the radicand is nonnegative. Step Solve the inequality algebraically. Step Test values to check your solution. Helping You Remember. One way to remember something is to explain it to another person. Suppose that your friend Leora thinks that she does not need to check her solutions to radical equations by substitution because she knows she is very careful and seldom makes mistakes in her work. How can you explain to her that she should nevertheless check every proposed solution in the original equation? Sample answer: Squaring both sides of an equation can produce an equation that is not equivalent to the original one. For example, the only solution of x is, but the squared equation x has two solutions, and. Glencoe/McGraw-Hill Glencoe Algebra Answers - Enrichment Truth Tables In mathematics, the basic operations are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, finding a root, and raising to a power. In logic, the basic operations are the following: not (), and (), or (), and implies ( ). If P and Q are statements, then P means not P; Q means not Q; P Q means P and Q; P Q means P or Q; and P Q means P implies Q. The operations are defined by truth tables. On the left below is the truth table for the statement P. Notice that there are two possible conditions for P, true (T) or false (F). If P is true, P is false; if P is false, P is true. Also shown are the truth tables for P Q, P Q, and P Q. P P P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q P Q T F T T T T T T T T T F T T F F T F T T F F F T F F T T F T T F F F F F F F F T You can use this information to find out under what conditions a complex statement is true.
