Algebra Quiz: Practice & Review Cheat Sheet
- Real Number Properties - Tap into the magic of commutative, associative, distributive, identity, and inverse properties to simplify expressions and solve equations with ease. Mastering these rules is like having a secret decoder ring for algebraic puzzles!
- Order of Operations (PEMDAS) - Harness the power of parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, and addition/subtraction to conquer even the trickiest expressions. Think of it as following a recipe for perfect math results every time!
- Exponent Rules - Learn the product, quotient, power, zero, and negative exponent rules to tame expressions with powers like a seasoned algebra wizard. These shortcuts will save you time and brainpower on tests!
- Polynomial Operations - Practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing polynomials, and spot special products like the difference of squares or perfect square trinomials. Polynomials are like LEGO blocks - once you know how to snap them together, you can build anything!
- Factoring Techniques - Sharpen your skills in factoring out the greatest common factor, breaking down trinomials, and recognizing patterns like sum/difference of cubes. Factoring is your secret weapon for dismantling complex expressions!
- Solving Linear Equations & Inequalities - Apply properties of equality and inequality to crack linear equations and graph your solutions like a pro. Visualizing the answer on a number line or coordinate plane makes everything click!
- Systems of Linear Equations - Master graphing, substitution, and elimination methods to find where two lines meet (or don't!). Think of it as solving a mystery by collecting clues from each equation.
- Functions, Domain & Range - Decode what functions do, identify their domain and range, and practice plotting different types to reveal their behavior. Functions are like machines: feed them inputs, get outputs, and draw the picture!
- Quadratic Equations - Tackle quadratics with factoring, completing the square, and the quadratic formula, and learn how the discriminant reveals the nature of your solutions. Quadratics are parabolas dancing on your graph - join the dance!
- Exponential & Logarithmic Functions - Dive into growth and decay with exponentials, then flip them into logarithms to solve equations. These inverse buddies help you model everything from bacterial growth to pH levels!
