Chapter 2 NotesLinear Equations

Section 2-1 Writing Equations

Ex1) Translate each sentence into an equation. Pay attention to the words is, is as much as, is the same as, is identical toa) Seven times a numbers squared is five times

the difference of k and m

b) Fifteen times a number subtracted from 80 is 25

Section 2-1

Ex2) Translate the sentence into a formula: the area of a triangle equals the product of ½ the length of the base and the height

Ex3) Translate each equation into a sentencea) 6z – 15 = 45 b)

Section 2-6: Ratios and Proportions

Ratio – A comparison between two numbers using division (fraction)

Proportion – two ratios that are equal

Means-Extremes Property of ProportionWords In a proportion, the product of the extremes is equal to the product of the means

Symbols If , and b and d do not equal zero, then ad = bc

Examples Since , 2(2) = 4(1) or 4 = 4
