Day 13: Section 2-1 Complex Numbers; Sections 2-2 Quadratic Functions

2-1: Complex Numbers

After completing section 2-1 you should be able to do the following:

1. Add and subtract complex numbers

2. Multiply complex numbers

3. Divide complex numbers

4. Perform Operations with square roots of negative numbers

5. Solve quadratic equations with complex imaginary solutions

In order to take a square root of a negative number mathematicians invented an expanded system of numbers

called complex numbers.

Complex Numbers

The set of all numbers in the form

a + bi

with real numbers a and b, and i, the imaginary unit are called the set of complex numbers. The real number a

is called the real part and the real number b is called the imaginary part of the complex number a + bi.

In order to add complex numbers you must add like terms.

Practice: In 1-2, Add or subtract as indicated:

1. (5 – 2i) + (3 + 3i) 2. (2 + 6i) – (12 – i)

In order to multiply complex numbers it is done using the distributive property and the FOIL method.

After completing multiplication, we replace any occurrences of i2 with −1.

Practice: In 1-2, Find the products:

1. 7i(2 – 9i) 2. (5 + 4i)(6 – 7i)

The Imaginary Unit i The imaginary unit is defined as

1i , where i2 = −1

Conjugate of a Complex Number The complex conjugate of the number a + bi is a – bi, and the complex conjugate of a – bi is a + bi. The

multiplication of complex conjugates gives a real number:

(a + bi)(a – bi) = a2 + b

2

(a – bi)(a + bi) = a2 + b

Math Analysis Notes 2

In order to divide complex numbers is really a process of multiplying by the complex conjugate of the

denominator. Remember that you want to keep the expression the same value so you must multiply by 1, so

what ever you do to the bottom of a fraction you must do to the top of the fraction.

2-2 Quadratic Functions

After completing section 2-2 you should be able to do the following:

1. Use transformations of the common function y = x2 to determine the characteristics of parabolas.

2. Graph parabolas (quadratic equations)

3. Determine quadratic function’s minimum or maximum value

Graph Quadratic Functions in Standard Form

Steps for changing from general form to standard form of a quadratic function.

1. Move constant term to other side of equal sign.

2. Factor out “a” if it is not 1.

3. Complete the square, remember what you add to one side you must add to the other.

4. Factor the x side to a square of a binomial.

5. Resolve for y and the quadratic should now be in standard form: y = a(x – h)2 + k

Practice: in 1-2, Rewrite the quadratic into standard form:

1. f(x) = x2 – 6x + 10 2. f(x) = 3x

2 + 12x – 8

The standard Form of a Quadratic Function

The quadratic function 2

( ) ( )f x a x h k

is in standard form. The graph of f is a parabola whose vertex is at the point (h, k). The parabola is

symmetric with respect to the line x = h. If a > 0, the parabola opens upward; if a < 0, the parabola opens

downward.

Graphing Quadratic Functions with Equations in Standard Form

1. Determine whether the parabola opens upward or downward. If a > 0, it opens upward. If a < 0,

it opens downward.

2. Determine the vertex of the parabola. The vertex (h, k).

3. Find any x-intercepts by solving f(x) = 0. The function’s real zeros are the x-intercepts.

4. Find the y-intercepts by evaluating f(0).

5. Plot the intercepts, the vertex and additional points as necessary. Connect these points with a

smooth curve that is shaped line a “u”. called a parabola.

range (use interval notation).

Minimum and Maximum Values of Quadratic Functions.

If a parabola opens downward a < 0, then the quadratic function has a maximum at the vertex (h, k).

If a parabola opens upward a > 0, then the quadratic functions has a minimum at the vertex (h, k).

Practice: In 1-2, (a) Determine without graphing, whether the function has a minimum value or a maximum

value. (b) Find the order pair were the minimum value or maximum values occur. (c) Identify the function’s

domain and its range without graphing.

Graphs of Polynomials are Smooth and Continuous Graphs

Polynomial functions of degree 2 or higher have graphs that are smooth and continuous. By smooth, we mean

that the graphs contain only rounded curves with no sharp corners. By continuous, we mean that the graphs

have no breaks and can be drawn without lifting your pencil from the rectangular coordinate system.

Zeros of Polynomial Functions

A zero of a polynomial function is found by setting the functions equal to zero and solving the resulting

equation. Zeros are also called solutions and roots.

If a zero occurs at the same x-value an even number of times the graph of the function at that point

touches the x-axis and turns around.

If a zero occurs at the same x-value an odd number of times the graph of the function at that point

crosses the x-axis.

The Leading Coefficient Test (continued)

The coefficient on the term with the largest exponent on the variable is called the leading coefficient.

If the largest exponent is an even number:

If the leading coefficient is

positive, the graph rises to

the left and rises to the right.

If the leading coefficient is

negative, the graph falls to

the left and falls to the right.

Practice: In 1-4, Find the zeros for each polynomial function and give the multiplicity for each zero. State

whether the graph crosses the x-axis or touches the x-axis and turns around, at each zero.

1. f(x) = 2x(x – 4)2(x + 3)

3. f(x) = x3 − 2x

2 + x 4. f(x) = x

3 + 7x

2 – 4x – 28

Zero occurs an odd

number of times at

x = −3, because it

crosses the x-axis.

Zero occurs an odd

number of times at

x = 4, because it

crosses the x-axis.

Zero occurs an even number of

times at x = −1, because it turns

around at that point.

The Intermediate Value Theorem for Polynomials

Let f be a polynomial function with real coefficients. If f(a) and f(b) have opposite signs, then there is at

least one value of c between a and b for which f(c) = 0. Therefore, the equation f(x) = 0 has at least one

real root between a and b.

2. Find the x-intercepts by setting f(x) = 0 and solving the resulting polynomial equation.

If the same zero occurs an even number of times, the graph touches the x-axis at that x-value and

turns around.

If the same zero occurs an odd number of times, the graph crosses the x-axis at that x-value.

3. Find the y-intercept by computing f(0).

4. Use symmetry, if applicable, to help draw the graph.

y-axis of symmetry: f(−x) = f(x) (even function)

Origin symmetry: f(−x) = −f(x) (odd function)

5. Use the fact that the maximum number of turning points of the graphs is the degree minus 1 to check

whether it is drawn correctly.

Vertical Asymptotes of Rational Functions

A vertical asymptote is a vertical line in the graph of the rational function that the graph will never intersect.

The graph of a rational function may have no vertical asymptote, one vertical asymptote, or several vertical

asymptote. We will use dashed lines to show asymptotes.

Graph the common function 1

Step 1 State Domain

The value of the domain that is

restricted is the value of the

asymptote(s). If the domain is all real

numbers then the graph of the

rational function has no vertical

asymptote.

Step 2 Graph the vertical asymptote as a

dashed line.

Step 3 Choose 3 x-values smaller and larger

than each vertical asymptote

Step 4 Connect points with smooth curve,

make sure you do not intersect the vertical

asymptote(s).

If a function has a value that x that is restricted in it’s domain, the rational function may be a y-value the that is

also restricted. If a rational function has a restriction in it’s y-value we call that y-value a horizontal asymptote

at y = b, where b equals the y-value that is restricted.

Rules for finding Horizontal Asymptotes:

If ( )

( )( )

p xf x

q x is the rational function then:

1. The H.A. is y = 0 if the degree of q(x) is larger than p(x).

2. The H.A. is the ratio of the leading coefficients if the degree of q(x) is equal to the degree of p(x).

3. There is no H.A. if the degree of p(x) is larger than q(x).

Slant Asymptotes.

We have seen that if the degree of the numerator is larger than the denominator then the rational function does

not have a horizontal asymptote. Over it may still have y-values that are restricted.

The graph of a rational function has a slant asymptote if the degree of the numerator is one more than

the degree of the denominator.

The slant asymptote is the equation y = the quotient of the division of the rational function.

Day 18: Section 2-7 Polynomial and Rational Inequalities

After completing section 2-7 you should be able to do the following:

1. Solve polynomial inequalities

2. Solve rational inequalities

Practice 1-4: Solve each polynomial inequality and graph the solution set on a real number line. Express each solution set in interval

notation.

1. x2 – 5x + 4 > 0 2. 5x ≤ 2 – 3x

2

3. (x – 1)(x – 2)(x + 3) > 0 4. x4 + x

3 + 4x

2 + 4x ≥ 0

Procedure for Solving Polynomial Inequalities

1. Express the inequality in the form:

0 or 0( ) ( )f x f x

where f is a polynomial function.

2. Solve the equation f(x) = 0. The solutions are boundary points.

3. Locate these boundary points on the number line, thereby dividing the number line into intervals.

4. Choose one representative number, called a test value, within each interval and evaluate f at that number.

If the value of f is positive, then f(x) > 0 for all numbers x, in the interval.

If the value of f is negative, then f(x) < 0 for all numbers x, in the interval.

5. Write the solution set, selecting the interval or intervals that satisfy the given inequality.

Procedure for Solving Rational Inequalities

1. Express the inequality so that one side is zero and the other side is a single quotient, if necessary.

2. Set the numerator and the denominator of f equal to zero. These real solutions are the boundary points

3. Locate the boundary points on a number line and separate the line into intervals

4. Choose one test value within each interval and evaluate f at that number.

5. Write the solutions set, selecting the interval or intervals that satisfy the given inequality.

Day 19: Section 2-8 Modeling using Variation

After completing section 2-8 you should be able to do the following:

1. Solve direct variation problems

2. Solve inverse variation problems

3. Solve combined variation problems

4. Solve problems involving joint variation

Direct Variation If a situation is described by an equation in the form:

y = kx, where k is a nonzero constant, we say the y varies directly as x. The number k is called the constant of variation.

Practice:

1. The number of gallons of water, W, used when taking a shower varies directly as the time, t, in minutes, in the shower. A shower

lasting 5 minutes uses 30 gallons of water. How much water is used in a shower lasting 11 minutes?

2. The distance required to stop a car varies directly as the square of its speed. If 200 feet are required to stop a car traveling 60 miles

per hour, how many feet are required to stop a car traveling 100 miles per hour?

Inverse Variation If a situation is described by an equation in the form

ky

x

where k is a nonzero constant, we say that y varies inversely as x.

Practice:

1. The length of a violin string varies inversely as the frequency of its vibrations. A violin string 8 inches long vibrates at a frequency

of 640 cycles per second. What is the frequency of a 10-inch string?

Procedure for Solving Variation Problems

1. Write an equation that describes the given English statement.

2. Substitute the given pair of values into the equation in step 1 and solve for k, the constant of variation

3. Substitute the value of k into the equation in step 1.

4. Use the equation from step 3 to answer the problem’s question.

Math Analysis Notes 23

Combined Variation Some problems will use both direct variation and inverse variation to relate two variables. When this happens you will only have one

k value.

If a situation is described by an equation in the form

kzy

x

where k is a nonzero constant, we say that y varies directly with z and inversely with x.

Practice:

1. The number of minutes needed to solve an exercise set of variation problems varies directly as the number of problems and

inversely as the number of people working to solve the problems. It takes 4 people 32 minutes to solve 16 problems. How many

minutes will it take 8 people to solve 24 problems?

Joint Variation If a situation is described by an equation in the form

y kxwz

where k is a nonzero constant, we say that y varies jointly with x, w, and z.

Practice:

1. The volume of a cone, V, varies jointly as its height, h, and the square of its radius, r. A cone with a radius measuring 6 feet and a

height measuring 10 feet has a volume of 120π cubic feet. Find the volume of a cone having a radius of 12 feet and a height of 2 feet.
