Lesson on graphing linear equations using the slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form is represented by the equation y= mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. Slope is the rise over run, and y-intercept is the coordinate of the equation when x = 0. By plotting the y-intercept, the second point can be determined using the slope. -Pedro Thenumberbender
Lesson on solving for x-intercepts and y-intercept to graph an equation of a line. X-intercepts can be solved by setting the value of y into 0. Likewise, y-intercepts can be solved by setting the value of x into 0. Since two points make a line, finding the x and y intercepts are enough to graph the equation of the line. -Pedro Thenumberbender
Aralin tungkol sa pagkuha ng values ng mga variables gamit ang ZPP. Ginagamit ang ZPP kapag ang expressions mo ay gawa sa factors. Minsan, kailangan mong mag-factoring bago gamitan ng ZPP. Ine-equate nito ang factors sa 0 para makuha ang sagot. Maaring mga quadratic, cubic, o ano mang klase ng polynomial ang mga expressions mo. -Pedro Thenumberbender
Aralin tungkol sa paghanap ng mga factors ng mga quadratic equations. Sa madaling salita, ang factoring ay ang kabaliktaran ng distribution. Ito rin ay kadalasan na tinatawag na "reverse distribution". Para makuha ang factor ng isang quadratic equations, hanapin lang ang factor ng constant term na kung saan kapag pinagsama, ito ay pareho sa inyong linear term. -Pedro Thenumberbender
Araling tungkol sa pag-solve ng mga linear equations. Ang linear equations ay ang mga equations na kung saan ang pinakamataas na exponent ay 1. Sa pag-solve ng mga linear equations, maaring silang matiyak bilang one-step equation o kaya naman, two-step equation. -Pedro Thenumberbender
Aralin tungkol sa pag-simplify ng mga algebraic expression gamit ang mga laws of exponents. Habang nagagamit pa ang mga laws of exponents, hindi pa rin tapos ang pag-simplify ng mga expressions. Ang mga laws na ito ay mahalaga sa algebra sapagkat ito ay ginagamit din sa mga nakatataas na antas na mathematical understanding.
Barnett, Ziegler, Byleen, and Sobecki’s College Algebra with Trigonometry text is designed to be user friendly and to maximize student comprehension by emphasizing computational skills, ideas, and problem solving as opposed to mathematical theory. The large number of pedagogical devices employed in this text will guide a student through the course. Integrated throughout the text, students and instructors will find Explore-Discuss boxes which encourage students to think critically about mathematical concepts. In each section, the worked examples are followed by matched problems that reinforce the concept being taught. In addition, the text contains an abundance of exercises and applications that will convince students that math is useful.
