Unit 1A Review Notes

Algebraic Simplification and Literal Equations

  • Evaluated expressions using order of operations (PEMDAS):

    • 20+3⋅57+3\frac{20 + 3 \cdot 5}{7 + 3}
    • 25−3⋅(5)2−(7−32)\frac{25 - 3 \cdot (5)^2}{-(7 - 3^2)}
  • Solved linear equations:

    • 105+45x=30x+15105 + 45x = 30x + 15
    • −x5+8=−x+20-\frac{x}{5} + 8 = -x + 20
  • Rearranged literal equations for specified variables:

    • Solve A=πr2A = \pi r^2 for π\pi: π=Ar2\pi = \frac{A}{r^2}
    • Solve 12x+2y=−1012x + 2y = -10 for yy: y=−6x−5y = -6x - 5
    • Solve sphere volume V=43πr3V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 for r3r^3: r3=3V4πr^3 = \frac{3V}{4\pi}
    • Evaluated r3r^3 and rr given V=33.49V = 33.49 and π=3.14\pi = 3.14: r3=8r^3 = 8 and r=2r = 2
  • Simplified unfinished expressions and matched equivalent solution sets:

    • 10(x−3)+20=10x−1010(x - 3) + 20 = 10x - 10, which is equivalent to 2(5x−5)2(5x - 5)

Linear Inequalities

  • Solved single-variable inequality:

    • −4(x+3)<64→x>−19-4(x + 3) < 64 \rightarrow x > -19
  • Solved compound inequalities:

    • −5<4x−5<19→0<x<6-5 < 4x - 5 < 19 \rightarrow 0 < x < 6
    • −1−10m<−1-1 - 10m < -1 or 10+3m≤−5→m>010 + 3m \le -5 \rightarrow m > 0 or m≤−5m \le -5
