Rational Exponents Recall that in an exponential expression of the form 𝑏𝑛, 𝑏 is called the base, 𝑛 is called the exponent and 𝑏𝑛 is a power. You can say that 𝑏 is raised to the 𝑛th power. Because of this, the exponent is also referred to as a power. For example, 54 would be read as “five raised to the fourth power.” In expanded form, we would write 54 = 5 ∙ 5 ∙ 5 ∙ 5. So the exponential form can be used to shorten an expression with repeated multiplication. Raising five to the fourth power means multiplying 5 times itself four times.

So what about 5.12? How can we multiply 5 by itself one-half times?

In previous courses, you were taught properties for rewriting expressions involving exponents. Let’s look at some patterns and see if we can rediscover those properties. Multiplying powers with the same base

4. multiplication property of equality _________________________________________________________

5. division property of equality ______________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________________________________

As long as equality is maintained, equations can be rewritten. To solve for a variable, it needs to be isolated

and have a coefficient of 1. Typically, these steps work the best when solving for a variable.

Simplify each side of the equation. To avoid sign errors, use the definition of subtraction to rewrite

subtraction as addition.

Use the addition property of equality and the inverse property of addition so that all of the terms with

the variable you are solving for are on one side of the equation and all of the other terms are on the

other side.

If the variable’s coefficient is an integer, use the division property of equality to make the variable’s

coefficient 1. If the coefficient is a fraction, use the multiplication property of equality and the inverse

property of multiplication to make the variable’s coefficient 1.

Use the substitution property of equality to check the answer.

Solve each equation for x. Clearly show neat steps. Check your solution by using the substitution property of

equality. If your solution is “no solution” carefully check each step of your work.

6. 6 – 5x = –7

7. 8 – 2(x – 3) = 9

8. 2(x – 1) – 3 = –14 – 4x

Common Core Math 1 Unit 1 One Variable Equations and Inequalities

20 | P a g e

When solving equations, sometimes you don’t get a single value for the variable.

For what value(s) of x will this equation be true? 3x = 3x

For what value(s) of x will this equation be true? 2x + 1 = 2x + 1

If we zero out the variable term from one side of the first equation, we get 0 = 0. When we do it with the

second equation, we get 1 = 1.

The reflexive property of equality (a = a) states that these equations are true. An equation that is true for all

values of the variables is called an identity. There are infinitely many solutions to an identity.

Another type of equation that does not have a single value as a solution is one that has no solution.

Consider the following equation: x = x + 1 For what value(s) of x would this equation be true? If we zero

out the variable term from one side of the equation, we get 0 = 1.

10. What do you think is the best way to check your answer when you get “no solution” or “infinitely many

solutions” as your answer?

11. 8 – 2(3x – 7) = 5x – 11x – 3 + 5

19. Create an equation that has no solution.

20. Create an equation that has infinitely many solutions.

When equations have coefficients and constants that are not integers, you can use the multiplication

property of equality and the least common denominator to rewrite the equation using integers. While this is

not a necessary step, it is a skill that you should master.

Pythagorean Theorem

If a triangle is a right triangle, then the square of the hypotenuse (longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (legs).

*Review: What does the triangle inequality theorem state?

*Review: Define rational numbers and irrational numbers.

Study the two squares below. The length of the thick, bold line segment is a units. The length of the thin line segment is b units. The length of each side of each square is (a + b) units.

*How would you calculate the area of each square?

The converse of the Pythagorean theorem is also true. If the square of the longest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.

1. Label the legs and the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

2. Which sides of a right triangle are the legs?

3. Define “hypotenuse”.

4. What does the Pythagorean theorem state?

The distance formula is used to calculate the distance between two points on a coordinate plane. It is based on the Pythagorean theorem.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the missing side of the right triangle. Sketch each triangle. If the

square root can be simplified, write it as a rational number.

5. Leg = 8 cm ; leg = 1 cm 6. Leg = 1.5 inches ; hypotenuse = 2 inches

Use the converse of the Pythagorean theorem to determine whether or not the given lengths could form a

Sometimes you have a formula, such as something from geometry, and you need to solve for some variable

other than the "standard" one. For instance, the formula for the perimeter P of a square with sides of length s

is P = 4s. You might need to solve this equation for s, so you can substitute in a value for the perimeter and

figure out the side length.

Equations with several variables are called literal equations.

the equation, but didn’t answer the questions, carefully analyze your error. Carefully look for this error on similar problems in the future. Sometimes you need to answer a question. Solving an equation or inequality is only part of the work. You must interpret the solution you get in order to answer the questions being asked. Attend to precision. 13. 48 suckers.
