WEEK 2 WORD PROBLEM LEADING TO ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION

Sometimes you may be asked to solve problem given in words. To do this you need to convert the words into an algebraic equation and then solve it. The following points will show you what to do.

a.            Read the equation carefully and then decide what the unknown number is

b.            Where necessary, change all the unit of measurement to the same unit

c.             Use a letter to represent the unknown

d.            Use the information provided to write the required equation

e.            Solve the equation as usual

f.             Use the solution obtained to answer the questions in words

g.            You can check your answer as usual.

Example1: Think of a number, add 5 to it and multiply the result by 3, the answer is 36. What is the number?

Example 2:The sum of a number and 9 is multiplied by -2 and the answer is -8. Find the number

Example 3: The smallest of three consecutive odd number is n, if their sum is 27. Find the three numbers.

Solution:

Note the rules above. Follow the steps.

1.            Let the number be X, add 5 to it, = X + 5, multiple by 3

                3(X+5), the answer is 36

                Open the bracket 3(X+5) = 36 [use the 3 to multiply the equation]

                3x + 15 = 36 [subtract 15 from both side]

                3X + 15 – 15 = 36 – 15

                3X = 21[divide both side by 3

                3X/3 = 21/3

                X = 7

                Check

                3(7+5)

                3X12=36

2.            Let X be the number, X + 9, multiply by -2,

                -2(X + 9), the answer is -8

                -2(X + 9) = -8 [open the bracket]

                -2X -18 = -8

                Collect the like term

                -2X = -8 + 18 [the sign we change to positive]

                -2x = 10

                Divide both sides by -2

                -2X/-2 = 10/-2

                X = -5

Check

-2(-5+9)

-2(+4) = -8

3.            Let the first number be n, second number to be n+2, third number be n+4.

                Note that odd number are 1, 3, 5, 7, the difference between each number is 2.

                N+N+2+N+4 = 27

                Collect the like term

                3N + 6 = 27 [subtract 6 from both sides]

                3N = 27 – 6

                3N = 21

                Divide both sides by 3

                3N/3 = 21/3

                N = 7

                N =7, N+2= 7+2 = 9, N + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11

                Therefore the consecutive numbers are 7, 9, and 11

EVALUATION: Translate the following statement into algebraic equations and then solve them

  1. Think of a number, and 5, the result is 10. What is the number?
    1. Two market women shared a basket full of oranges in order to sell them. The share of the first woman is twice the other. If there are 300 oranges in the basket. What is the share of each woman?
    1. The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 60. Find the numbers.

WEEK 3 LINEAR INEQUALITIES

Inequality is an algebraic expression formed by replacing the equal sign of an equation with an inequality symbol. e.g. 7X + 5 = 16 (equation while 5X + 7 > 9 (inequality).

The following are commonly used in an inequality symbol.

V

SYMBOL                               MEANING                                           REPRESENTATION

<                                             LESS THAN

>                                            GREATER THAN

≤                                             LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO

≥                                             GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO

We often use inequality in our everyday life. We can write them as algebraic statement. For example, if the speed of a car is 250km/h or less, we can write this as S ≤ 250, where s represent speed.

GRAPH OF INEQUALITIES

A linear inequality has no square or higher power of the unknown. In other words, the power of the unknown is 1.

Example 1: 2x > 15 is a linear inequality in one variable. (X).

Solution:

2X > 10 [divide both side by 2

2X/2 > 10/2

X = 5.

                                              1    2    3    4     5    6    7    8  

The empty circle at the end of the arrow shows that 5 is not included in the range

COMBINING INEQUALITIES

When combining inequalities (sometimes an unknown quantity obeys more than one inequality). These inequalities may be combined as one statement, the smallest number must be written first followed by the unknown and finally the largest number and vice-versa. For example, the diagram below shows that X can take any value from -2 to 3

                                           -6   -5   -4     -3     -2     -1     0     1     2     3    4

Hence the inequalities are X ≥ -2 and X < 3

But X ≥ -2 in reverse is written as a ≤ X and X < 3 can be combined as a single inequality as follows

-2 ≤ X ≤ 3.

Example1:     

                                         -6  -5  -4   -3   -2    -1   0    1    2    3    4     5    6                                                   

                                                        X ≥ -1,     X ≤ 5

                                                                   -1 ≤ x ≤ 5

Example 2:

                                                                            -5    -4    -3    -2    -1    0    1    2 

                                                                                                X > -5, X ≤ 2

-5 < X ≤ 2

WEEK 4 SOLVING INEQUALITIES

RULES IN SOLVING INEQUALITIES.

  1. An inequality remains true when the same quantity is added to, or subtracted from both side.
    1. An inequality remains true when both sides are multiplied or divided by the same positive quantity.
    1. An inequality remains true when both sides are multiplied or divided by a negatives quantity provided the inequality sign is reversed. 

Example 1: Find the greatest possible value of a X that satisfies the inequality 8 + 2X > 3 + 5X. if X is an integer.

Solution:

8 + 2X > 3 + 5X

Subtract 8 from both sides

2X > 3 – 8 + 5X

2X > -5 + 5X

Subtract 5X from both sides

2X – 5X > -5  = -3x > -5

Divide both sides by -3 and also reverse the inequality

X < 12/3 [rule three]

The greatest integer value of X is 1.

Example2: Find the smallest integer value of X that satisfies the inequality 7X – 2 ≥ 5X – 6

Solution:

7X – 2 ≥ 5X – 6

Add 2 to both sides

7X ≥ 5X – 6 + 2

7X ≥ 5X – 4

Subtract 5X from both sides

7X – 5X ≥ -4 = 2x ≥ -4 , Divide both side by 2

X ≥ -2

WORD PROBLEMS LEADING TO INEQUALITIES

Example 1: David is X years old. In 4 year time his age will still be less than 12 years. (a) Write this information in an inequality in X. (b) Find the maximum age of David to the nearest whole numbers.

Solution:

In 4 year time David age’s will be (X + 4) years.

If at that time his age will be less than 12, then

X + 4 < 12

Subtract 4 from both sides

X < 12 – 4

X < 8.

The maximum age of David is 7 years.

Example 2: A man had #X, out of this, he used #1000 to pay his house rent. The amount he had left is not more than 3500. (a) Write this information in an inequality in X (b) Solve for X.

Solution:

The man used #1000 to pay his house rent out of #X, so the amount left is #(x – 1000).

This amount is not more than 3500

X – 1000 ≤ 500

Add 1000 to both sides

X ≤ 500 + 1000 = X ≤ 1500

Hence the man had less than or equal to #1500

WEEK 5 GRAPH OF LINEAR EQUATION

There are several ways to graph a straight line given its equation.   

Let’s quickly refresh our memories on equations of straight lines:

Slope Intercept FormPoint Slope FormHorizontal LinesVertical Lines

when stated in “y=” form, it quickly gives the slope, m, and where the
line crosses the y-axis, b, called the y-intercept.
http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/algebra/ac1/EqLine2.gif
when graphing, put this equation into “y = ” form to easily read graphing information.
y = 3 (or any number)
horizontal lines have a slope of zero – they have “run”, but no “rise” — all of the y values are 3.
x = -2 (or any number)
vertical lines have no slope (it does not exist) – they have “rise”, but no “run” –all of the x values are -2.

Graphing Tidbits:

If a point lies on a line, its coordinates make the equation true. (2,1) in on the
line y = 2x – 3
because 1 = 2(2) – 3  
Before graphing a line, be sure that your equation starts with “y=”. To graph 6x + 2y = 8
rewrite the equation:
2y = -6x +8
  y = -3x + 4
Now graph the line using either slope intercept method or chart method.
The x-coordinate may be called the abscissa. The y-coordinate may be called the ordinate.

Plotting Points
Graph  2y = 6x + 4 1.  Put your equation in “y=” form.
                     y = 3x + 2 2.  The number in front of x is the slope.
     (If necessary, place this number over 1 to
      form a fraction for your rise/run.)
                    slope = 3/1        3.  The “b” value is where the line crosses the
     y-axis.  Be sure to check the sign of this
     number.    b = 2
                   
4.  Plot the b value on the y-axis.
                    see graph below

5.
  Standing at this point, use your rise and run
     values to plot your second point.
     (If rise is positive, move up.  If rise is negative,
      move down.)
     (If run is positive, move right.  If run is
      negative, move left.)

6.
  Connect the two points to form the line. http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/algebra/ac1/EqLine10.gif


            Graph  2y = 6x + 4 X Y -3   -2   -1   0   1   2   3   Create a chart to hold x and y values from your line.  For lines, the x-values usually range from -3 to +3, but may be any values you wish. While charts often contain more than 2 entries, only two entries are needed to determine a straight line.  A third point should be used to “check” that an error was not made while computing the first two points. X Y -3 -7 -2 -4 -1 -1 0 2 1 5 2 8 3 11 Substitute the x-values into the equation to determine the y-values.  Putting the equation in “y=” form first will make the substitution easier.
y = 3x + 2

Now start substituting.  For example, substitute x = -3:
y = 3 (-3) +2 =  -9 + 2 = -7   Plot the (x,y) coordinates to graph the line. http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/algebra/ac1/fixpic3.gif            

How Do You Graph a Linear Equation by Making a Table?

Note:

Graphing a function? It would be really helpful if you had a table of values that fit your equation. You could plot those values on a coordinate plane and connect the point to make your graph. See it all in this tutorial!

PLANE SHAPES AND THEIR PROPERTIES

Identify Plane Shapes and Solid Shapes: Overview

Geometry and spatial relationships are a part of children’s daily lives. Understanding an object’s position in space and learning the vocabulary to describe position and give directions are important. Simple terms like above, below, left, right, or between, enable children to order and describe the world around them. They can apply these terms as they describe plane and solid shapes in the classroom.

Most of the objects that we encounter can be associated with basic shapes. A closed, two-dimensional or flat figure is called a plane shape. Different plane shapes have different attributes, such as the numbers of sides or corners. A side is a straight line that makes part of the shape, and a corner is where two sides meet. In this chapter, children will learn to identify, describe, sort, and classify plane shapes by these attributes.

Although children are familiar with the most common shapes, up until now they may not have been able to verbalize what distinguishes a square from a rectangle or a circle from a triangle. They will learn to describe shapes in terms of their sides and corners. A triangle is a shape with three sides and three corners. A rectangle is a shape with four sides and four corners. They may notice that opposite sides are the same length. A square is a rectangle in which all four sides are of equal length. A circle is a round shape that has no sides or corners. These attributes, as well as size, can be used to sort and classify shapes.

PROPERTIES OF PLANE SHAPES

Square

  • A square has four sides, but not just any four sides. A square’s four sides are all the same length. A square with one-inch sides is smaller than a square with three-inch sides because one is less than three. A square also has four corners.  Opposite side are equal, the diagonal bisect at right angles. It has four line of symmetry.

Rectangle

  • a rectangle has two equal sides of one length and two equal sides of a different length. A rectangle is like a stretched square.. Both figures have four corners, but no longer four equal sides for the rectangle. Write their findings on the board under headings “square,” “rectangle” and “both.” The diagonal are equal, and they bisect each other. it has two line of symmetry.

Triangle

                Two side are equal, the base angles are equal (isosceles triangle). All the three sides are equal,    all the angles are equal which is 60, it has three line of symmetry. (equilateral triangles)

Circle

  • Give each child a piece of string. Ask them to make circles with the string on their desks. Discuss how many sides and corners a circle has: none. Let each child pick a piece of construction paper. Fold it in half and show them how to trim the edges; open it up and it’s a circle. For homework, tell the class to take home their circle, find unneeded items that are circles and glue them on the construction paper. The next day post the artistic circles on the bulletin board.

WEEK 7 MID TERM REVIEW HALF LESSON

WEEK 8 SCALE DRAWING

Since it is not always possible to draw on paper the actual size of real-life objects such as the real size of a car, an airplane, we need scale drawings to represent the size like the one you see below of a van.



In real-life, the length of this van may measure 240 inches. However, the length of a copy or print paper that you could use to draw this van is a little bit less than 12 inches

Since 240/12 = 20, you will need about 20 sheets of copy paper to draw the length of the actual size of the van

In order to use just one sheet, you could then use 1 inch on your drawing to represent 20 inches on the real-life object

You can write this situation as 1:20 or 1/20 or 1 to 20

Notice that the first number always refers to the length of the drawing on paper and the second number refers to the length of real-life object

Example #1:

Suppose a problem tells you that the length of a vehicle is drawn to scale. The scale of the drawing is 1:20

If the length of the drawing of the vehicle on paper is 12 inches, how long is the vehicle in real life?

Set up a proportion that will look like this:

http://www.basic-mathematics.com/images/proportion-for-scale-drawing.gif



Do a cross product by multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction

We get :

Length of drawing × 20 = Real length × 1

Since length of drawing = 12, we get:

12 × 20 = Real length × 1

240 inches = Real length

Example #2:

The scale drawing of this tree is 1:500

If the height of the tree on paper is 20 inches, what is the height of the tree in real life?

http://www.basic-mathematics.com/images/tree.gif



Set up a proportion like this:

http://www.basic-mathematics.com/images/proportion-for-scale-drawing1.gif

Do a cross product by multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction

We get :

Height of drawing × 500 = Real height × 1

Since height of drawing = 20, we get:

20 × 500 = Real length × 1

10000 inches = Real height
