Place Value, Names for Numbers, and Reading Tables
1.2 Place Value, Names for Numbers, and Reading Tables

Place Value The position of each digit in a number determines its place value. Ones Hundred-thousands Hundred-billions Ten-billions Billions Hundred-millions Ten-millions Millions Ten-thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens

Writing a Number in Words
A whole number such as 35,689,402 is written in standard form. The columns separate the digits into groups of threes. Each group of three digits is a period. Millions Thousands Billions Ones Hundred-thousands Hundred-billions Ten-billions Hundred-millions Ten-millions Ten-thousands Hundreds Tens

Writing a Number in Words
To write a whole number in words, write the number in each period followed by the name of the period. Ones Hundred-thousands Hundred-billions Ten-billions Billions Hundred-millions Ten-millions Millions Ten-thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens thirty-five million, six hundred eighty-nine thousand, four hundred two

Helpful Hint The name of the ones period is not used when reading and writing whole numbers. Also, the word “and” is not used when reading and writing whole numbers. It is used when reading and writing mixed numbers and some decimal values as shown later.

Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra
Expanded Form Standard Form Expanded Form 4, = The place value of a digit can be used to write a number in expanded form. The expanded form of a number shows each digit of the number with its place value.

Comparing Whole Numbers
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Comparing Whole Numbers We can picture whole numbers as equally spaced points on a line called the number line. 1 2 3 4 5 A whole number is graphed by placing a dot on the number line. The graph of 4 is shown.

Comparing Numbers For any two numbers graphed on a number line, the number to the right is the greater number, and the number to the left is the smaller number. 5 4 1 2 3 2 is to the left of 5, so 2 is less than 5 5 is to the right of 2, so 5 is greater than 2

Comparing Numbers . . . 2 is less than 5 can be written in symbols as 2 < 5 5 is greater than 2 is written as 5 > 2

are both true statements.
Helpful Hint One way to remember the meaning of the inequality symbols < and > is to think of them as arrowheads “pointing” toward the smaller number. For example, 2 < 5 and 5 > 2 are both true statements.

Adding and Subtracting Whole Numbers, and Perimeter
1.3 Adding and Subtracting Whole Numbers, and Perimeter

The sum of 0 and any number is that number.
Addition Property of 0 The sum of 0 and any number is that number. 8 + 0 = 8 and = 8

Commutative Property of Addition
Changing the order of two addends does not change their sum. 4 + 2 = 6 and = 6

Associative Property of Addition
Changing the grouping of addends does not change their sum. 3 + (4 + 2) = = 9 and (3 + 4) + 2 = = 9

Subtraction Properties of 0
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Subtraction Properties of 0 The difference of any number and that same number is 0. 9 – 9 = 0 The difference of any number and 0 is the same number. 7 – 0 = 7

Polygons A polygon is a flat figure formed by line segments connected at their ends. Geometric figures such as triangles, squares, and rectangles are called polygons. triangle square rectangle

Perimeter The perimeter of a polygon is the distance around the polygon.

Addition Problems Descriptions of problems solved through addition may include any of these key words or phrases: Key Words Examples Symbols added to 3 added to 9 3 + 9 plus 5 plus 22 5 + 22 more than 7 more than 8 7 + 8 total total of 6 and 5 6 + 5 increased by 16 increased by 7 16 + 7 sum sum of 50 and 11

Subtraction Problems Descriptions of problems solved by subtraction may include any of these key words or phrases: Key Words Examples Symbols subtract subtract 3 from 9 9 – 3 difference difference of 8 and 2 8 – 2 less 12 less 8 12 – 8 less than 2 less than 20 20 – 2 take away 14 take away 9 14 – 9 decreased by 16 decreased by 7 16 – 7 subtracted from 5 subtracted from 9 9 – 5

Helpful Hint Be careful when solving applications that suggest subtraction. Although order does not matter when adding, order does matter when subtracting. For example, 10 – 3 and 3 – 10 do not simplify to the same number.

Helpful Hint Since subtraction and addition are reverse operations, don’t forget that a subtraction problem can be checked by adding.

Rounding and Estimating
1.4 Rounding and Estimating

Rounding 20 30 23 23 rounded to the nearest ten is 20. 40 50 48
10 20 15 15 rounded to the nearest ten is 20.

Rounding Whole Numbers
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Rounding Whole Numbers Step 1: Locate the digit to the right of the given place value. Step 2: If this digit is 5 or greater, add 1 to the digit in the given place value and replace each digit to its right by 0. Step 3: If this digit is less than 5, replace it and each digit to its right by 0.

Estimates Making estimates is often the quickest way to solve real-life problems when their solutions do not need to be exact.

Helpful Hint Estimation is useful to check for incorrect answers when using a calculator. For example, pressing a key too hard may result in a double digit, while pressing a key too softly may result in the number not appearing in the display.

Multiplying Whole Numbers and Area
1.5 Multiplying Whole Numbers and Area

Multiplication Multiplication is repeated addition with a different notation. = 5 ∙ 4 = 20 5 fours factor product

Multiplication Property of 0
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Multiplication Property of 0 The product of 0 and any number is 0. 9  0 = 0 0  6 = 0

Multiplication Property of 1
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Multiplication Property of 1 The product of 1 and any number is that same number. 9  1 = 9 1  6 = 6

Commutative Property of Multiplication
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Commutative Property of Multiplication Changing the order of two factors does not change their product. 6 • 3 = 18 and 3 • 6 = 18

Associative Property of Multiplication
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Associative Property of Multiplication Changing the grouping of factors does not change their product. 5 • ( 2 • 3) = 5 • 6 = 30 and (5 • 2) • 3 = 10 • 3 = 30

Distributive Property
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Distributive Property Multiplication distributes over addition. 5(3 + 4) = 5 • • 4

Area 1 square inch 1 5 inches 3 inches
Area of a rectangle = length  width = (5 inches)(3 inches) = 15 square inches

Helpful Hint Remember that perimeter (distance around a plane figure) is measured in units. Area (space enclosed by a plane figure) is measured in square units. 5 inches 4 inches Rectangle 5 inches + 4 inches + 5 inches + 4 inches = 18 inches Perimeter = Area = (5 inches)(4 inches) = 20 square inches

Multiplication Words There are several words or phrases that indicate the operation of multiplication. Some of these are as follows: Key Words Examples Symbols multiply multiply 4 by 3 4 • 3 product the product of 2 and 5 2 • 5 times 7 times 6 7 • 6

Dividing Whole Numbers
1.6 Dividing Whole Numbers

Division quotient divisor dividend
The process of separating a quantity into equal parts is called division. quotient dividend divisor

Division Properties of 1
The quotient of any number, except 0, and that same number is 1. 6 1 5 7 = ÷

The quotient of any number and 1 is that same number. 6 1 5 7 = ÷

The quotient of 0 and any number (except 0) is 0. 6 7 = ÷ 5

The quotient of any number and 0 is not a number. We say that 6 5 7 ÷ are undefined.

Helpful Hint Since division and multiplication are reverse operations, don’t forget that a division problem can be checked by multiplying.

Division Words Here are some key words and phrases that indicate the operation of division. Key Words Examples Symbols divide divide 15 by 3 15  3 quotient quotient of 12 and 6 divided by 8 divided by 4 divided or shared equally $20 divided equally among five people 20  5

Average How do you find an average? A student’s prealgebra grades at the end of the semester are: 90, 85, 95, 70, 80, 100, 98, 82, 90, 90. How do you find his average? Find the sum of the scores and then divide the sum by the number of scores. Sum = 880 Average = 880 ÷ 10 = 88

Exponents and Order of Operations
1.7 Exponents and Order of Operations

An exponent is a shorthand notation for repeated multiplication.
Exponents An exponent is a shorthand notation for repeated multiplication. 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 3 is a factor 5 times Using an exponent, this product can be written as exponent base

Exponential Notation exponent base Read as “three to the fifth power” or “the fifth power of three.” This is called exponential notation. The exponent, 5, indicates how many times the base, 3, is a factor. 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 3 is a factor 5 times

Reading Exponential Notation 4 = 41 is read as “four to the first power.” 4 • 4 = 42 is read as “four to the second power” or “four squared.”

Reading Exponential Notation 4 • 4 • 4 = 43 is read as “four to the third power” or “four cubed.” 4 • 4 • 4 • 4 = 44 is read as “four to the fourth power.”

Helpful Hint Usually, an exponent of 1 is not written, so when no exponent appears, we assume that the exponent is 1. For example, 2 = 21 and 7 = 71.

Evaluating Exponential Expressions To evaluate an exponential expression, we write the expression as a product and then find the value of the product. 35 = 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 = 243

Helpful Hint An exponent applies only to its base. For example,
4 • 23 means 4 • 2 • 2 • 2. Don’t forget that 24, for example, is not 2 • 4. 24 means repeated multiplication of the same factor. 24 = 2 • 2 • 2 • 2 = 16, whereas 2 • 4 = 8

Order of Operations 1. Perform all operations within parentheses ( ), brackets [ ], or other grouping symbols such as fraction bars, starting with the innermost set. 2. Evaluate any expressions with exponents. 3. Multiply or divide in order from left to right. 4. Add or subtract in order from left to right.

Introduction to Variables, Algebraic Expressions, and Equations
1.8 Introduction to Variables, Algebraic Expressions, and Equations

Algebraic Expressions
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Algebraic Expressions A combination of operations on letters (variables) and numbers is called an algebraic expression. Algebraic Expressions 5 + x • y • y – 4 + x 4x means 4 • x and xy means x • y

Algebraic Expressions
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Algebraic Expressions Replacing a variable in an expression by a number and then finding the value of the expression is called evaluating the expression for the variable.

Evaluating Algebraic Expressions
Chapter 1 / Whole Numbers and Introduction to Algebra Evaluate x + y for x = 5 and y = 2. Replace x with 5 and y with 2 in x + y. x + y = ( ) + ( ) 5 2 = 7

Equation Statements like = 7 are called equations. An equation is of the form expression = expression An equation can be labeled as Equal sign x = 9 left side right side

Solutions When an equation contains a variable, deciding which values of the variable make an equation a true statement is called solving an equation for the variable. A solution of an equation is a value for the variable that makes an equation a true statement.

Solutions Determine whether a number is a solution: Is –2 a solution of the equation 2y + 1 = –3? Replace y with –2 in the equation. 2y + 1 = –3 ? 2(–2) + 1 = –3 ? –4 + 1 = –3 –3 = –3 True Since –3 = –3 is a true statement, –2 is a solution of the equation.

Solutions Determine whether a number is a solution: Is 6 a solution of the equation 5x – 1 = 30? Replace x with 6 in the equation. 5x – 1 = 30 ? 5(6) – 1 = 30 ? 30 – 1 = 30 29 = 30 False Since 29 = 30 is a false statement, 6 is not a solution of the equation.

Solutions To solve an equation, we will use properties of equality to write simpler equations, all equivalent to the original equation, until the final equation has the form x = number or number = x Equivalent equations have the same solution. The word “number” above represents the solution of the original equation.

Keywords and Phrases Keywords and phrases suggesting addition, subtraction, multiplication, division or equals. Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division Equal Sign sum difference product quotient equals plus minus times divide gives added to subtract multiply shared equally among is/was/will be more than less than multiply by per yields increased by decreased by of divided by amounts to total less double/triple divided into is equal to
