Honors Algebra 2 Summer Worksheet # 3&4. Due the first day of class.
I. Combine like terms (with fractions)
Like terms: have the same variable and exponent, when combining add or subtract coefficients
Adding/Subtracting: Only add/subtract coefficients of like terms. EXPONENTS DO NOT CHANGE!

III. Laws of Exponents
Multiplying: Multiply coefficients, add exponents
· Ex:
Dividing: Divide coefficients, subtract exponents
· Ex:
1. Divide -21 and 7= -3
2. : subtract the exponents 2-1= 1 à
3. : subtract the exponents 3-6= -3 à
4. So far we have . This is not the final answer because negative exponents are not simplified. When given a negative exponentmove and make it positive. If the negative exponent is located in the numerator move it to the denominator, if it is in the denominator then move it to the numerator. (Big –little, write answer wherever big exponent was) ANSWER:
Zero: Anything to the zero power equals 1
·
· The whole quantity has the power of zero.
· Note: only x is raised to the zero power, so only the rest of the factor remains

IV. FOIL
Simplify
Distribute: If possible always distribute first, then combine like terms.
· Ex: Multiply what is on the outside of the parenthesis to each term on the inside of the parenthesis. Then combine like terms. The only like terms in this example are 6x and –x. ANSWER:
Multiply: If given two polynomials, use FOIL or the box method to multiply.
· Ex: FOIL (First Outer Inner Last) or Box method:
Rewrite the contents of the box and combine like terms. ANSWER:
Ex: Foil or box
Rewrite the contents of the box and then combine like terms. Like terms in this example are and as well as and . ANSWER:
1) (8a – 2b) (5a + 4b)
2) (3a + 4)(a2 – 12a + 1)

Equations of Lines
I. Graphs: Sketch and write an equation
Once in slope intercept form, “b” is the
y-intercept, graph, then count rise over
run from initial ordered pair.
Write the equation of the line from the graph.
EXAMPLE
Line #7: y-int =5, slope= up 1, left 3 to next ordered pair
Equationà
Graph the following.
7) 9y – 3x = 18
8) 8x - 2y = 7
9) 14y – 35x = 63
10) 21 = 7y – 2x
11) 15 = -7x + 6y
12) 9 = 4y – x
13) 9x + 3y = 0
14) 5(7 – x) = y
II. Ordered Pairs
Given two ordered pairs write the equation of the line. Find the slope () use this value for m, choose one ordered pair for x and y values. Solve for b.

III. Parallel/Perpendicular
Parallel Lines à SAME SLOPE
· To find slope the equation must be in slope intercept form (solve for y)
· Use given information: new ordered pair, y intercept, slope.
Perpendicular Lines à OPPOSITE RECIPROCAL (change the sign and flip the fraction)
· Ex: -5 à
· Ex:à
· To find slope the equation must be in slope intercept form (solve for y)
· Use given information: new ordered pair, y intercept, new slope. SPECIAL CASES:
· Vertical lines have a slope that is undefined (x coordinates are the same)
· Ex: x=3
· Horizontal lines have zero slope (y coordinates are the same)
· Ex: y=-2
