Linear Graphs and Equations

For any straight line, the gradient (M) is: dy/dx or difference in y/difference in x which is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Equation of a line: y=mx+c which is used when the gradient and intercept is known or y-y1=m(x-x1) when the gradient and the co-ordinates (x1,y1) of a single point that the line passes through is known. You'll need to learn this equation.
[The equation of the line can be kept in this form unless stated in the exam. (reduces error chance) Also, usually there is a working mark, so state the fact that the gradient is difference in y/difference in x]
The mid-point of two graphs is found by (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2 in the form (x,y)
Lines with the same gradient are parallel, while lines with gradients that are negative reciprocals of each other is perpendicular to it. (perpendicular means at a right angle to)
[they usually want you to state that 'the perpendicular line's gradient is the negative reciprocal', so stick it in. It is also usefull to draw out diagrams if they ask about right angle triangles, (usually something to do with negative reciprocals rather than pythagoras.)]
In 2D Lines that are not parallel must intesect, the point of intersection can be found by simultaneous equations by: • equating coefficients of the two lines • substituing one equationinto the other • equating both equations for y.

Surds

surd form is exact. they involve irrational roots, which are roots that cannot be expressed as fractions as they are irrational for example: √5' (for clarification purposes ' marks the end of the root) • √a' x √b' = √a x b' = √ab' • √a' / √b' = √a/b' • √a+b' ≠ √a'+√b'
It is often more useful when denominator of a fraction is rationalised. This is done by multiplying the top and bottom by the conjugate, as the product of two conjugates is always rationalised because (a+b)(a-b)=(a^2)-(b^2) and a surd^2 is always rational. (^2 means squared)

    The quadratic formula follows the quadratic equation. You find the solutions to ax²+bx+c=0 where a ≠ 0 is given by x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/(2a ) . The quadratic formula can be used to solve any quadratic equation. You can solve quadratic equations by factoring, the square root property, and completing the square. When you use the quadratic formula it takes the guessing out of figuring which way to solve the problem. The formula always works and will work on any of the quadratic equations. It is…

    Slope Essay For years Mathematicians have studied and found various mathematical equations. One thing they've came across is numerous equations for slope. You maybe asking, what is slope? Slope is rise over run.To find slope (m=slope) on a graph, you draw and label your x (horizontal) and y (vertical) axis on a xy-coordinate plane. When you draw your two lines they should meet at right angles at a point zero. The axis is divided into four quadrants. Then you find any two points ( (0,0) and (2,1) ) on a line and calculate rise over run (m=2/1). Plot the point on the designated spot which you have calculated.To find the slope of a line using the coordinates of two points, you find to points using the formula: y-y /x-x . Take the y's and subtract them, then take the x's and subtract them. Then that's your slope. If it turns out to be zero its no slope and if zero is on the bottom of the fraction it is then called null set, which means a set with no numbers.Next, you can also find slope by using slope-intercept form, which you us the equation y=mx+b. M = slope, b = y-intercept, and x and y are your points. You will take your slope and plug it into the m and then take the y-intercept and plug it into b. You want to get your y and x on the same side. You can subtract the x to get it over on the y side or you can subtract the y and get in on the x side. Then on one side you should have just a number. It's best to subtract from the side with one variable and one number. The answer should always be in standard form.Last, but not least you can also find slope using a line by the standard form equation.(y, y )= m(x, x ) is the standard form equation. There are many ways you can use this equation, to find slope of two points, given a slope and a point, given slope and y-intercept, and slope of parallel and perpendicular lines. In standard form the number before X has to be positive. Also to write an equation you have to know slope and a point. When finding an equation in…

    A radical, another name for a square root, comes in different forms. For example, if you change the root of a radical to a 3 rather than a 2, it becomes a cube root. Instead of squaring a number, 32=9, you will cube the number, 33=27 or in other words, 3*3*3=27. Therefore, you will have to cube root it, [pic]. The square roots of most numbers don’t always come out even. The number 9, is an example of a perfect square, because the square root of 9 is 3, a rational number. On the other hand, the square root of 8, does not come out even, when calculated through a calculator, the answer is 2.828427125, an irrational number. The exact values of these irrational numbers cannot be expressed in decimal form, and must be left in radical form because the decimal values are rounded and not completely accurate. These irrational radical numbers are called surds.…
