Chapter 1
Real Numbers, Algebra, and Problem Solving
1.1 Real Numbers and Operations
There is exactly one real number for each point on a number line.
Real Numbers
Objective: Show that a number is rational and distinguish between rational and irrational numbers.
If a real number cannot be expressed as a ratio of 2 integers then it is called irrational.
Def Rat/Irrat #
Absolute Value of a Number
• The absolute value of a number is the distance on a number line the number is from 0.
Distance from 0 is 2 |-2| = 2
Objective: Add positive and negative numbers.Objective: Subtract positive and negative numbers.
The additive inverse of a number is the number added to it to get 0.
Subtraction Defined
Objective: Add positive and negative numbers.Objective: Subtract positive and negative numbers.
Subtraction Theorem
Challenge 1.1.1
Objective: Divide positive and negative numbers.
The reciprocal/Multiplicative Inverse of a number is the number we multiply it by to get 1.
Division Defined
Objective: Divide positive and negative numbers.
Division Theorem
Objective: Recognize division by zero as impossible
Thus we cannot define and must exclude division by 0.
Zero is the only real number that does not have a reciprocal.
Division By Zero
Challenge 1.2.1
Is it sometimes, always, or never true that, if x is a real number, (- x)( - x) is negative?
Is it sometimes, always, or never true that, if x is a real number, (x)( - x) is negative?
Is it sometimes, always, or never true that, if x is a real number, (x)(x) is negative?
1.3 Algebraic Expressions and Properties of Real Numbers
Variable: Any symbol that is used to represent various numbers
Constant: Any symbol used to represent a fixed number
Objective: Use number properties to write equivalent expressions.
Def. Equivalent Expressions
Equivalent Expressions: Expressions that have the same value for all acceptable replacements.
Objective: Use number properties to write equivalent expressions.
Real Number Properties
Objective: Use number properties to write equivalent expressions.
Additive Identity: The number 0.

More Properties
Challenge 1.3.1
For Exercises 1-4, use the properties of real numbers to answer each question.
1. If m + n = m, what is the value of n?
2. If m - n = 0, what is the value of n? What is n called with respect to m?
3. If mn = 1, what is the value of n? What is n called with respect to m?
4. If mn = m, what is the value of n?
Challenge 1.3.2
Suppose we define a new operation @ on the set of real numbers as follows: a @ b = 4a - b. Thus 9 @ 2 = 4(9) - 2 = 34. Is @ commutative? That is, does a @ b = b @ a for all real numbers a and b?
1.4 The Distributive Property
Objective: Use the distributive property to multiply.
Thm Distribute over difference
Objective: Use the distributive property to factor expressions.
Factoring: The reverse of multiplying.
To factor an Expression: To find an equivalent expression that is a product.
Definition Factoring
Objective: Collect like terms.
Like Terms: Terms whose variables are the same
Def Like Terms
Objective: Write the inverse of a sum.
Theorem 1-4, 1-5

Challenge 1.4.2
1.5 Solving Equations
Objective: Solve equations using the addition and multiplicationproperties.
A mathematical sentence A = B says that the symbols A and B are equivalent.
Such a sentence is an equation.
The set of all acceptable replacements is the replacement set.
The set of all solutions is the solution set.
Definitions
Objective: Solve equations using the addition and multiplicationproperties.
Properties Of Equality
Objective: Prove Identities
Identity: An equation that is true for all acceptable replacements.
To Prove an Identity:
• Pick one side of the equation and manipulate it using properties of real numbers to show that it can be transformed so that it is exactly the same as the other side.
