A1.1.1

Give a verbal description of an expression that is presented in symbolic form, write an algebraic

expression from a verbal description, and evaluate expressions given values of the variables.

Write and solve equations and inequalities with one or two variables to represent mathematical

or applied situations.

Associate a given equation with a function whose zeros are the solutions of the equation.

Solve linear and quadratic equations and inequalities, including systems of up to three linear

equations with three unknowns. Justify steps in the solutions, and apply the quadratic formula

appropriately.

Solve an equation involving several variables (with numerical or letter coefficients) for a

designated variable. Justify steps in the solution.

Recognize whether a relationship (given in contextual, symbolic, tabular, or graphical form) is a

function and identify its domain and range.

Read, interpret, and use function notation and evaluate a function at a value in its domain.

Represent functions in symbols, graphs, tables, diagrams, or words and translate among

representations.

Identify the zeros of a function and the intervals where the values of a function are positive or

negative. Describe the behavior of a function as x approaches positive or negative infinity,

given the symbolic and graphical representations.

Identify and interpret the key features of a function from its graph or its formula(e), (e.g.,

slope, intercept(s), asymptote(s), maximum and minimum value(s), symmetry, and average

rate of change over an interval).

Combine functions by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Apply given transformations (e.g., vertical or horizontal shifts, stretching or shrinking, or

reflections about the x- and y-axes) to basic functions and represent symbolically.

Recognize whether a function (given in tabular or graphical form) has an inverse and recognize

simple inverse pairs.

Describe the tabular pattern associated with functions having constant rate of change (linear)

or variable rates of change.

Write the symbolic forms of linear functions (standard [i.e., Ax + By = C, where B ¡Ù 0],

point-slope, and slope-intercept) given appropriate information and convert between forms.

Graph lines (including those of the form x = h and y = k) given appropriate information.

Relate the coefficients in a linear function to the slope and x- and y-intercepts of its graph.

Find an equation of the line parallel or perpendicular to given line through a given point.

Understand and use the facts that nonvertical parallel lines have equal slopes and that

nonvertical perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to give -1.

Adapt the general symbolic form of a function to one that fits the specifications of a given

situation by using the information to replace arbitrary constants with numbers.

Using the adapted general symbolic form, draw reasonable conclusions about the situation

being modeled.

Use methods of linear programming to represent and solve simple real-life problems.

Explain why the multiplicative inverse of a number has the same sign as the number, while the

additive inverse has the opposite sign.

Explain how the properties of associativity, commutativity, and distributivity, as well as identity

and inverse elements, are used in arithmetic and algebraic calculations.

Describe the reasons for the different effects of multiplication by, or exponentiation of, a

positive number by a number less than 0, a number between 0 and 1, and a number greater

than 1.

Justify numerical relationships.

* Remember to distribute before your start the ¡°undoing¡± process. (To distribute you need to

take the number directly in front of the parenthesis and multiply it by everything inside the

parenthesis. Be careful of your signs!!!

* Don¡¯t forget to combine like terms if they are on the same side of the equal sign. Only

perform the opposite operation if you are moving a piece to the other side of the equal sign.

* You can check your answers by substituting the value you found for x into the original

equation.
