Topics for October 29th

Today We Discussed:

Today we reviewed the topics from Chapter 3 in preparation for our test on Thursday. 

Students helped make this list of topics:

• Literal Equations
• Inequalities
• Multi-step
• Compound (AND and OR)
• Graphing
• Absolute Value
• Equations
• Inequalities

The big "take-aways" from this chapter are:

• Equations have finite solutions; inequalities have infinite solutions.
• When multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative, you must flip the inequality sign to keep the truth of the inequality.
• Absolute Value equations and inequalities have two cases: positive and negative

Sections Covered in Textbook:

All of Chapter 3 (pages 132-172) and Section 2-6 on Formulas (pages 111-114)
