Rules for Combining Signed Numbers - 1.1, 1.2 Rule 1: If the signs of the numbers to be combined are the same, then add the numbers and keep the common sign as part of your answer. Examples: + 6 + 3 = + 9; + 5 + 3 = + 8; - 5 - 4 = - 9; - 6 - 4 = - 10 7 + 4 = + 11 (Notice that the 7 has no sign, so we know it is a + 7) Exercise A: 1) + 6 + 7 2) - 9 - 6 3) 12 + 5 4)

+7+5

14) - 20 - 40

15) + 12 + 12

Rule 2: To combine numbers with different signs, subtract the numbers and take the sign of the larger number for your answer. Examples: - 5 + 3 = - 2 (The answer is negative since 5 is greater than 3, and 5 is negative.) - 7 + 8 = + 1 (The answer is positive since 8 is greater than 7, and 8 is positive.) - 4 + 9 = + 5 (The answer is positive since 9 is greater than 4, and 9 is positive.) +10 - 13 = - 3 (The answer is negative since 13 is greater than 10, and 13 is negative.)

Combining Signed Numbers - 1.1, 1.2 (a) When the signs of numbers are the same or alike, add the numbers and keep the same sign. Examples: a. 3 + 5= + 8 b. - 2 - 12 = - 14 c. + 45 + 8 = 53 d. - 17 - 4= - 21 (b) When the signs of the numbers are different or unlike, subtract the smallest number from the largest, and then take the sign of the largest number. Examples: a. - 28 + 12 = - 16 b. + 9 - 45 = -36 c. 12 + 4 = 16

d. + 8 - 2 = 6

For example: a) +5 + ( + 7) (Add the numbers, keep the common sign.) = + 5 + 7 = + 12 b) 5 - (- 7) (Add the numbers, keep the common sign.) = + 5 + 7 = + 12 c) 5 - (+ 7) (Subtract the numbers, keep the sign of the larger number.) = 5 - 7 = - 2 d) 5 + (- 7) (Subtract the numbers, keep the sign of the larger number.) = 5 - 7 = - 2 Add or Subtract: (A) 1) +4 + (+ 2) =

Multiplication - 1.3 (a) The product is positive if the two signs are the same, either both positive or both negative. Examples: -5(-4) = +20; (+4)(+2) = +8 (b) The product is negative if the two signs are different, one positive and one negative. Examples: (-8)(4) = -32; +6(-5) = -30 (c) When multiplying more than two terms, the product is positive if there is an even number of signs and the product is negative if there is an odd number of negative signs. Examples: (-2)(-1)(8) = +16 (-1)(3)(+2) = -6 -2(-10)(-5) = -100

Two-Step Equations - 2.2

Two Step Equations With Four Terms: The proper procedure is to move the variables (x’s) to one side of the equation and to move all the constants/numbers to the other side of the equation. Examples a. -6x +4 = -8x +10 +8x -4 +8x -4 2x = 6 x=3

b. 3x - 5 = 13x +15 -3x -15 -3x - 15 -20 = 10x -2 = x

Multi-Term Equations - 2.2 Multi-Term Equations - If an equation has more than one of the same term on either side of the equation, the like terms should be combined before solving the equation. Example 2y + 8 - 14 = 2y - 6 = - 2y +12 6 = 1 =

5y - 12 + 3y 8y - 12 -2y +12 6y y

(On the left side of the equation, the +8 and the -14 are combined first. On the right side of the equation, the 5y and the 3y are combined first.)

Solve: 1) 8x - 3 + 5 = 3x + 22 + 4x

Equations With Parentheses - The proper procedure is remove all parentheses on both sides of the equation and then to combine like terms before solving. Example: 7 + 2(x - 4) = 6x - (5x + 10) 7 + 2x - 8 = 6x - 5x - 10 2x - 1 = x - 10 - x +1 = -x + 1 x= -9

(parentheses removed) (terms combined)

Solve: 1) 8 + 3(x + 2) = 4x - (2x + 5)

2) 2 +3(x + 6) = 11 - (5x + 15)

3) 3(x + 4) = 5 - (x - 11)

4) 8(x + 12) = 3(x - 18)

5) x - 4(x - 7) = 2(3x - 13)

SIMPLIFYING RADICALS WITH VARIABLES - 8.2 In a square root the index is 2 2

x

In a cube root the index is 3 3

x

In a fourth root the index is 4 4

x

To simplify radicals with variables look at the radical as a “jail” with the variables trying to “break out”. The index indicates how many must be in a group to "break out". For instance, if the index is 3 then there must be 3 of the same thing to escape. 3

x3 =

x4 =

xxx=x =x

Take note of this one:

x6 =

x  x  x  x  x  x = x2 (Notice the square means two groups).

But, watch what happens when there is an extra variable…….. x5 (which really means

2

x5 ) =

x  x  x  x  x = x2 x

To figure the answer without drawing all the x’s, simply divide the index into the exponent. The number of times the answer comes out evenly, is the exponent of the variable on the outside and the remainder is the exponent under the radical in the answer. 3
