1
if your system of equations has no solution...,
it will graph as two parallel lines because parallel lines never intersect
2
if your system of equations has one solution...,
the two equations will graph as two lines intersecting at a single point because two straight lines have only one intersection
3
if your system of equations has infinitely many solutions...,
it will graph as a single line because their graphs are the same line
4
integers
whole numbers (negative or positive)
5
rationals
fractions, anything expressable as a ratio of integers
6
real #s
integers plus rationals plus special numbers like roots and pi
7
arithmetic sequence
each term equal to previous term PLUS x
8
geometric sequence
each term equal to previous term TIMES x
9
factor
the factors of a number divide into that number without a remainder
10
multiples
the multiples of a number are divisible by that number without a remainder
11
how to find part of a percent of something
part = (percent/100) * whole
12
average of numbers(mean)
sum of terms/number of terms

14
sum
average * number of terms

mode
value in the list that appears most often
16
median
middle value in the list (must be sorted)
17
Fundamental Counting Principle
If an event can happen in N ways, and another, independent event can happen in M ways, then both events together can happen in N*M ways.
18
Probability
probability= # desired outcomes / #total outcomes
19
x^a*x^b =
x^(a+b)
20
(x^a)^b =
x^(a*b)
21
x^0 =
1
22
x^a / x^b =
x^(a-b)
23
(xy)^a =
x^a * y^a
24
rootxy =
rootx * rooty
25
1 / x^b =
x^(-b)
26
(-1)^n =
1 is positive if 'n' is even
1 is negative if 'n' is odd
27
Difference of two squares
a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)
28
Distance formula
root[ (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y2)^1 ]
29
Mid point formula
(x,y) = ( x1+x2 / 2 , y1+y2/2 )
30
slope
y2-y1 / x2-x1 = rise/run

Parallel Lines
Eight angles are formed when a line crosses two parallel lines. The four big angles (a) are equal, and the four smaller angles (b) are equal.

33
pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
34
30-60-90 triangles
Hypotenuse (90 degrees): 2x
side across from 60 degrees: x root 3
side across from 30 degrees: x
35
45-45-90 triangles
hypotenuse (90 degrees): x root 2
side across from 45 degrees: x
36
area of a triangle
A = 1/2 * b * h
*works for all triangles
37
equilateral triangles
triangle with three EQUAL sides, all three angles measure 60 degrees each
38
Isosceles Triangle
Has two equal sides, the angles opposite these two equal sides are equal. (To find the third angle, add these two and subtract from 180 degrees, because a triangle is always 180 degrees).
39
Similar Traingle
Two or more triangles are similar if they have the same shape. The corresponding angles are equal, and the corresponding sides are in proportion. For example, if the sides of one triangle are 3-4-5 and the other are 6-8-10 the ratio is 2 to 1 but the angle measurements would remain the same.
40
Area of a circle
A = pi * r^2

68-95-99.7 Rule
If you take the mean and go one standard deviation above and below the mean you will get 68% of the data.
If you take the mean and go two standard deviations above and below the mean you will get 95% of the data.
If you take the mean and go three standard deviations above and below the mean you will get 99.7% of the data
