If a line is horizontal it was a slope of 0.

If a line is vertical it doesn’t have a slope.

2 nonvertical lines are parallel if and only if they have the same slope

Finding Equations of Lines

Linear Equation Forms:The General form

Ax+By=C

The slope-intercept form

y= mx+k Line has slope m and y-int k

The point-slope

3rd Answer in general form

.25x – y = -1.8

Function describes a dependent relationship between quantities

Linear Functions have the form f(x)= mx + k This is read “f” of “x”

f(x) = 3x – 5 f(2) = 1f(5/3) = 0 so we say that 5/3 is a zero of the

function f

a. Express total monthly cost as a function of miles

b. What is the slope of the graph of the cost function

A. C(m) = .25m + 700

B. Slope = .25 = 1/4

Section 1-5Complex Numbers

Real Numbers

Real numbers are number which can be found on a continuous number line

Complex Numbers

Also known as imaginary numbers

Ex. i = √ -1 and √-a = i √a

Practice with complex numbers

1. √7 ∙ √2 2. √ -7 √14 i√7

3. √-4 + √-16 + √-1 4.= √-25 i√4 + i√16 + i√1 √-50

2i + 4i + I = i√257i i√50

Solving Quadratic Equations

Quadratic Equation- It’s any equation that can be written in the form where a ≠ 0.

A root of a quadratic equation is a value of the variable that satisfies the equation.

You can solve these in 3 ways-

1.Factoring- whenever the product of two factors is zero, at least one of the factors must be zero.

2. Completing the square- The method of transforming a quadratic equation so that one side is a perfect square trinomial

3. Quadratic formula- derived by completing the square.

Quadratic Functions and their Graphs

Quadratic function- is the set of points (x, y) that satisfy the equation.

axis of symmetry- when you fold the graph along this axis, the two halves of the graph coincide.

The vertex of the parabola is the point where the axis of symmetry intersects the parabola.

Find the intercepts, axis of symmetry, and vertex of the parabola y = (x + 4)(2x – 3).

Axis of Symmetry: Equation=-b

Curve fitting-it is the process in which you find many kinds of curves to pass through data points.

One possible curve is the parabola with equation C(x)=ax2+bx+c

To find the values of a, b, and c, substitute the data from the graph into this equation.

Using the given model, determine the number of calories burned per gram hour by a parakeet flying level at 26mi/h. Compare your answer with the actual laboratory result of 123.5 calories per gram hour.

1st substitute the speed of 26 mi/h. into the quadratic equation.c(x)=0.678x ²-27.752x+387.360c(26)=.678(26) ²-27.752(26)+387.360c(x)=124.136

The energy expenditure of the parakeet flying at 26mi/h is about 124 calories per gram hour. Since this result is approximately within one unit of the actual energy expenditure of 123.5 calories per gram hour, we can assume that our model is probably a good one.
