Algebra
Algebra is a branch of
mathematics that involves
expressions with variables.
ALGEBRAIC
EXPRESSION
Example:
3x² and -5x² are like terms because their literal
coefficients are the same.
5x and 5x² are unlike terms because their literal
coefficients are NOT the same.
2x³y² and -4x²y³ are unlike terms because the
exponents of the literal coefficients are NOT the
same.
EVALUATING, ADDING
AND SUBTRACTING
POLYNOMIALS
How is an algebraic expression
evaluated?
3x + 5
=3(2) + 5
= 6+5
= 11
Steps to follow in evaluating algebraic
expressions:
1. Substitute the given values for each
variable.
2. Simplify first the expression within the
parenthesis.
3. Simplify the expressions with exponents.
4. Perform all indicated operations and simplify
the final answer.
Rules for Adding Integers
1. If the integers have the same
sign, copy the sign then add the
numbers.
Examples:
5 + 2 = 7
-3 + (-5) = -8
Rules for Adding Integers
2. If the integers have different
signs, subtract the numbers then
copy the sign of the larger number
Examples:
-7 + 4 = -3
6 + (-5) = 1
Rules for Subtracting Integers
1. Change the sign of the subtrahend
then proceed to addition.
2. Follow the rules in adding integers.
Example:
6 – 8 = 6 + (-8) = -2
Rules for Multiplying Integers
1. When multiplying two integers with the same sign,
the product is positive.
Examples: (7)(8) = 56
(-8)(-5) = 40
2. When you multiply two integers with different
signs, the product is negative.
Examples: (7)(-2) = -14
(-2)(3) = -6
3. Any number multiplied by 0 gives a product of 0.
Rules for Multiplying Integers
4. If the number of negative factors is
odd, the product is negative.
Examples: (-2)(3)(1) = -6
5. If the number of negative factors is
even, the product is positive.
Examples: (-2)(-3)(1) = 6
Rules for Dividing Integers
1. When two integers with the same sign are
divided, the quotient is always positive.
Examples: 42 ÷ 7 = 6
2. When two integers with different signs are
divided, the quotient is always negative.
Examples: 63 ÷ (-9) = -7
3. The rules for dividing zero by a non-zero
number and for division by zero still hold.
Adding Polynomials
Three Steps:
Step 1: Arrange each polynomial with the term
with the highest exponent first then in a
decreasing order of exponents.
Step 2: Group the like terms. Like terms are
terms whose variables and exponents are the
same.
Step 3: Simplify by combining like tems.
Adding Polynomials
Example 1:
Add 3x²+ 2x + 7 and x² + 5x - 2
(5𝑥 + 4) – (7𝑥 + 3)
= (5𝑥 + 4) + (−7𝑥 − 3)
= (5𝑥 − 7𝑥) + (4 − 3)
= −𝟐𝒙 + 1
(9𝑥 + 3) – (−4𝑥 + 5)
= (9𝑥 + 3) + (4𝑥 − 5)
= (9𝑥 + 4𝑥) + (3 − 5)
= 𝟏𝟑𝒙 − 2

base by itself

The Properties of Equality
Examples:
If 2 + 3 = 5 then 5 = 2 + 3.
If x - 5 = 2 then 2 = x - 5
The Properties of Equality
3. Transitive Property of Equality
- For any real numbers a, b, and c, a = b and b
= c then a = c
Examples:
If 2+3=5 and 5 = 1 + 4 then 2 + 3 = 1 + 4
If x - 1 = y and y = 3 then x - 1 = 3
The Properties of Equality
Examples:
If x + y = 5 and x = 3 then 3 + y = 5
If b - b = 2 and b = 4 then 6-4 = 2.
The Properties of Equality
Solution:
x – 4 + 4 = 8 + 4
x = 12
Checking:
x = 12
x – 4 = 8
12 – 4 = 8
8 = 8
Since 8 = 8 is true, then the x = 12 is a correct
solution to the equation.
POINTS TO REMEMBER:
Range 10-6=4
Average Deviation
Range = 25
For the average deviation of our grouped data, we will add some
columns to our frequency distribution table.
First, we need to calculate the midpoint(x) values. To calculate the values of
our midpoint, we'll take the mean of every class limit in an interval. To do
that we, add each lower boundary values to its respective upper boundary
values and divide it by two.
Now that we are done with the midpoint, we will now compute for the values
under fx. To obtain these values, all we need to do is to multiply each
frequency values to its respective midpoint values.
Next, we solve for the mean (x). To get the mean, add all
the values in fx column and divide it by the total number of
data (N).
Then, we take the difference between the values of midpoint(x) and the
mean (x). Get the sum of the absolute values and multiply it by the
frequency (f).
Lastly, we can now solve for the average deviation by
getting the sum of all the values in f|xx and divide it by
the total number of data (N).
For the variance and standard deviation, we need to square the
difference between the midpoint and the mean.
We already found the value of our mean from the solution that we've had
from the average deviation. Recall that our computed mean is 23.
The square of the difference between the midpoint and the
mean is found in the column labeled ( x - overline x )^ 2 To
solve for this, observe the solution below.
Afterwards, we will multiply these values to its respective
frequency.
Then, we take the sum of the values above and use
this slightly modified formula for the population
variance.
As for the standard deviation, remember that it's just
the square root of the variance. To get the standard
deviation of our grouped data, we have:
Note that we actually assumed that our grouped
data to be the entire population. But if assumed
that it is not, we will use the sample variance
formula.
Assuming that our grouped data is just the
sample size of the entire population, the solution
would be:
1.Properties of numbers
Real Numbers
- All numbers that we encounter
everyday.
-Consist of rational and irrational
numbers.
Rational Numbers
- Numbers that can be expressed as the quotient of two
integers A and B represented by A/B where B ≠ is not
equal to 0.
- Have a specific place on the number line.
- Can be written as terminating and non repeating (e.g.
1.35, 4.56) or non terminating and repeating decimals
(e.g. 0.1111..., 2.3030303030...).
Subsets of Rational Numbers
-Natural Numbers
consist of numbers starting from 1 (e.g. 1, 2, 3,
4....)
-Whole Numbers
consist of the natural numbers (1, 2, 3,...) and 0.
-Integers
consist of the natural numbers, their negatives and
0.
Irrational Numbers
- Numbers that cannot be expressed as
fractions.
- Have decimal representations that are
non-terminating and non-repeating.

2. Number Properties
A. Closure Property
When we add or multiply any element in a
set of numbers, the sum or the product is a
unique real number which belongs to the
same set.
Example
125 + 34 = 159
B. Commutative Property
states that changing the position of the
addends or the factors does not affect the
sum or the product.
Examples:
12 + 2 = 2 + 12 (Addition)
13 x 3= 3 x13 (Multiplication)
C. Associative Property
states that changing the grouping of the addends
in sum or the grouping of the factors in a product
does not change the resulting sum or product.
Examples:
(2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4) (Addition)
( 5 x 3) x 2= 5 x (3 x 2) (Multiplication)
D. Identity Property of Addition
- the sum of any number and zero is the same
number. O is the identity.
Example
34+0=34
E. Identity Property of Multiplication
the product of any number and 1 is the same
number. 1 is the identity.
Example
32 x 1 = 32
F. Distributive Property
says that when a number is multiplied by the SUM
of two other numbers, the first number can be
handed out or distributed to both of those two
numbers and multiplied by each of them
separately.
Example
3(8 + 5) = 3(8) + 3(5)
