Example 1 Evaluate a2 4a 6 if a 8. Store 8 as the value for a. Keystrokes: 8 STO ALPHA [A] ENTER Enter the expression and press ENTER to evaluate. Keystrokes: ALPHA [A] x 2 4 ALPHA [A] + 6 ENTER You can also use a colon, which is the ALPHA function above the decimal key, to chain commands together. This process is called concatenation. Using the colon in Example 1, the keystrokes become 8 STO ALPHA [A] ALPHA [:] ALPHA [A] x 2 4 ALPHA [A] + 6 ENTER .

Solve Equations
A mathematical sentence with one or more variables is called an open sentence. Open sentences are solved by finding replacements for the variables that result in true sentences. The set of numbers from which replacements for a variable may be chosen is called the replacement set. The set of all replacements for the variable that result in true statements is called the solution set for the variable. A sentence that contains an equal sign, , is called an equation. Example 1 Find the solution set of 3a 12 39 if the replacement set is {6, 7, 8, 9, 10}. Example 2 Solve b.

Solving Open Sentences
Solution Sets
Consider the following open sentence. It is the name of a month between March and July. You know that a replacement for the variable It must be found in order to determine if the sentence is true or false. If It is replaced by either April, May, or June, the sentence is true. The set {April, May, June} is called the solution set of the open sentence given above. This set includes all replacements for the variable that make the sentence true. Write the solution set for each open sentence. 1. It is the name of a state beginning with the letter A.
A spreadsheet is a tool for working with and analyzing numerical data. The data is entered into a table in which each row is numbered and each column is labeled by a letter. You can use a spreadsheet to find solutions of open sentences. Example Use a spreadsheet to find the solution set for 4(x 3) 31 if the replacement set is {7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}. You can solve the open sentence by replacing x with each value in the replacement set. Step 1 Use the first column of the spreadsheet for the replacement set. Enter the numbers using the formula bar. Click on a cell of the spreadsheet, type the number and press ENTER. Step 2 The second column contains the formula for the left side of the open sentence. To enter a formula, enter an equals sign followed by the formula. Use the name of the cell containing each replacement value to evaluate the formula for that value. For example, in cell B2, the formula contains A2 in place of x. Step 3 The third column determines whether the open sentence is true or false for the value in the replacement set. These formulas will return TRUE or FALSE.

A binary operation matches two numbers in a set to just one number. Addition is a binary operation on the set of whole numbers. It matches two numbers such as 4 and 5 to a single number, their sum. If the result of a binary operation is always a member of the original set, the set is said to be closed under the operation. For example, the set of whole numbers is closed under addition because 4 5 is a whole number. The set of whole numbers is not closed under subtraction because 4 5 is not a whole number.

A term is a number, a variable, or a product or quotient of numbers and variables. Like terms are terms that contain the same variables, with corresponding variables having the same powers. The Distributive Property and properties of equalities can be used to simplify expressions. An expression is in simplest form if it is replaced by an equivalent expression with no like terms or parentheses.

The Maya were a Native American people who lived from about 1500 B.C. to about 1500 A.D. in the region that today encompasses much of Central America and southern Mexico. Their many accomplishments include exceptional architecture, pottery, painting, and sculpture, as well as significant advances in the fields of astronomy and mathematics. The Maya developed a system of numeration that was based on the number twenty. The basic symbols of this system are shown in the table at the right. The places in a Mayan numeral are written verticallythe bottom place represents ones, the place above represents twenties, the place above that represents 20 20, or four hundreds, and so on.

Square Roots
A square root is one of two equal factors of a number. For example, the square roots of 36 are 6 and 6, since 6 6 or 62 is 36 and (6)(6) or (6)2 is also 36. A rational number like 36, whose square root is a rational number, is called a perfect square. The symbol is a radical sign. It indicates the nonnegative, or principal, square root of 36 6 and 36 6. The symbol 36 the number under the radical sign. So represents both square roots.

21. SIGHTSEEING The distance you can see to the horizon is given by the formula 1.5h, where d is the distance in miles and h is the height in feet above the d horizon line. Mt. Whitney is the highest point in the contiguous 48 states. Its elevation is 14,494 feet. The lowest elevation, at 282 feet, is located near Badwater, California. With a clear enough sky and no obstructions, could you see from the top of Mt. Whitney to Badwater if the distance between them is 135 miles? Explain. Yes; you can see
about 149 miles from the top of Mt. Whitney to an elevation of 282 feet.
22. SEISMIC WAVES A tsunami is a seismic wave caused by an earthquake on the ocean , where s is the speed in meters per second and floor. You can use the formula s 3.1d d is the depth of the ocean in meters, to determine the speed of a tsunami. If an earthquake occurs at a depth of 200 meters, what is the speed of the tsunami generated by the earthquake? about 43.8 m/s

3. In your own words, tell what is meant by the terms dependent variable and independent variable. Use the example below.
dependent variable the distance it takes to stop a motor vehicle d is a function of independent variable the speed at which the vehicle is traveling s
Ind: time; dep: speed. The car starts from a standstill, accelerates, then travels at a constant speed for a while. Then it slows down and stops.
2. The graph represents the balance of a savings account over time. Identify the independent and the dependent variable. Then describe what is happening in the graph.
Account Balance (dollars)
Sample answer: The value of the dependent variable is a result of the value of the independent variable. Since d is a result of s, d is the dependent variable and s is the independent variable.
Ind: time; dep: balance. The account balance has an initial value then it increases as deposits are made. It then stays the same for a while, again increases, and lastly goes to 0 as withdrawals are made.
3. The graph represents the height of a baseball after it is hit. Identify the independent and the dependent variable. Then describe what is happening in the graph.

A function is a relationship between input and output values. In a function, there is exactly one output for each input. The input values are associated with the independent variable, and the output values are associated with the dependent variable. Functions can be graphed without using a scale to show the general shape of the graph that represents the function. Example 1 The graph below represents the height of a football after it is kicked downfield. Identify the independent and the dependent variable. Then describe what is happening in the graph.

Draw Graphs You can represent the graph of a function using a coordinate system. Input and output values are represented on the graph using ordered pairs of the form (x, y). The x-value, called the x-coordinate, corresponds to the x-axis, and the y-value, or y-coordinate corresponds to the y-axis. A discrete function is a function whose graph consists of points that are not connected. When a function can be graphed with a line or smooth curve, it is a continuous function.
