# Unit 3: Solving Equations and Inequailties
|
||||
|
||||
## Equations
|
||||
- a ```mathematical statement``` in which the value on the ```left side``` equals the value on the ```right side``` of the equal sign
|
||||
- To ```solve``` and equation is to find the variable that makes the statement true
|
||||
### Methods to solve an equation
|
||||
1. Expand and simplify both sides
|
||||
2. Isolate using reverse order of operations
|
||||
3. Check the solution by plugging the variable back into the equation and check if the ```left side``` equals the ```right side```
|
||||
|
||||
## Absolute Values
|
||||
- There are 2 cases. For this sort of equation, you must split the equation into 2 separate equations. One of the
|
||||
- equations will have the absolute bracket be positive while the other negative.
|
||||
- Absolute values are written in the form $`| x |`$
|
||||
- where
|
||||
$`
|
||||
| x | =
|
||||
\begin{cases}
|
||||
x, & \text{if } x > 0\\
|
||||
0, & \text{if } x = 0\\
|
||||
-x, & \text{if } x < 0
|
||||
\end{cases}
|
||||
`$
|
||||
|
||||
## Quadractic Equations
|
||||
- ```Quadratic Function```: A parabolic graph where the axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis
|
||||
- ```Quadratic Equation```: This function is set equal to ```0```. The solution to the equation are called ```roots```
|
||||
- Solve quadratic equation by:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Isolation
|
||||
- $`a(x+b)^2 + k = 0`$
|
||||
2. Factor using zero-product property
|
||||
- ```The Zero Factor Property``` refers to when a×b=0, then either a=0 or b=0.
|
||||
- $`(x-a)(x-b)=0`$
|
||||
- $`x = a, b`$
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
**Note:**
|
||||
- √x<sup>2</sup> = ± x (There are 2 possible solutions)
|
||||
- ```Distrubutive Property``` - This is opening the bracket. a(x+y) = ax+ay
|
||||
|
||||
## Tips
|
||||
- ```Absolute Values``` can have 2 solutions
|
||||
- ```Quadratics``` can also have 2 solutions
|
||||
- Make sure to do the reverse when moving things to the other side, meaning a positive on the ```left side``` becomes a negative on the ```right side```
