MMW MIDTERM Flashcards
set of ordered pairs.
relation
may have more than 1 output for any given input.
relation
The set whose elements are the first coordinates in the ordered pairs is the
domain
The set whose elements are the second coordinates is the
range
what are the 3 correspondence?
one is to many correspondence
one is to one correspondence
many is to one correspondence
can have no more than 1 output for any given input.
function
notion f(x)
The letter x
The letter y is replaced by f(x)
defines a function named f
represents the input value, or independent variable.
represents the output value, or dependent variable.
It involves only one value or accepts one value or operand.
unary operation
It can act on two operands “+” and “ – ”
binary operations
It takes two values and include the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and exponentiation.
binary operations
properties of two binary operations.
Closure of binary operations
commutativity of binary operations
Associativity of binary operations
Distributivity of binary operations
Identity elements of binary operations
Inverse of binary operations
the product and the sum of any two real numbers is also a real number
5+3 =8. 5x3=15
Closure of binary operations
Addition and multiplication of any two real numbers is commutative as seen in their mathematical symbols
x + y = y + x and x ● y = y ● x
Commutativity of Binary Operations
three real numbers you may take any two and perform addition or multiplication as the case maybe and you will end with the same answer.
(x+y)+z= x+ (y+z)
(4+5)+7=4+(5+7)
9+7=4+12
16=16
Associativity of Binary Operations
applies when multiplication is performed on a group of two numbers added or subtracted together.
z(x ± y) = zx ± zy
Distributivity of Binary Operations
set of real numbers is an identity element for addition/multiplication. this means that the identity is the number that you add to any real numbers and the result will be the same real number.
5+0=0+5=5 50x1=1x50=50
e- zero for addition, one for multiplication
Identity Elements of binary operations
x+(-x)=-x+x=0
4+(-4)=-4+4=0
inverse of binary operation
additive inverse/ reciprocal
4 operation of functions
sum of function
difference of function
product of function
quotient of function
father of problem

who strongly believed that the skill problem can be taught

Polya’s Four-Step Problem Solving Strategy
Step 1 : Understand the problem.
Step 2 : Devise a plan.
Step 3: Carry out the plan.
Step 4: Review the solution
it is the process of translating a problem scenario into a drawing
strategy 1: draw a diagram, picture or model
data or information are organized by listing them or recording them systematically in tables.
The data are then analyzed to discover relationships and patterns and to draw out generalizations or solutions to the problem.
strategy 2: make a table or an organized list
Making a logical guess at the answer. The student learns more about the problem.
strategy: guess and check
