Abscissa - word for the x part of a coordinate pair. Absolute value - The positive value of the indicated number or expression./an operation that tells you how far a number is from zero. Additive inverse - Number with the same numerical part but the opposite sign (plus or minus) of the given number. If zero is the sum of two numbers, then these two numbers are additive inverses of one another Area - the amount of space covered by a two-dimensional object./measure of a specified region in

Absolute Value Graph Problems In this portfolio problem, I worked with absolute value, its function, properties, and applications to other graphs. Absolute value can be defined as the positive real number equal to a given real but disregarding its sign. In each graph the cyan colored function is the absolute value graph, and the lime green colored function is the original graph. It is apparent that there are no negatives in the absolute value graph. The cyan colored function is the absolute

Diagnostic Algebra Assessment Definitions Categories Equality Symbol Misconception Graphing Misconception Definition Concept of a Variable Misconception Equality Symbol Misconception As algebra teachers, we all know how frustrating it can be to teach a particular concept and to have a percentage of our students not get it. We try different approaches and activities but to no avail. These students just do not seem to grasp the concept. Often, we blame the students for not trying hard enough

I will be using math for everything from keeping track of billable hours to estimating damages in a lawsuit. I will need to know basic math, basic algebra, and first year algebra. Basic math and basic algebra consists of addition, subtraction, multiplication, fractions, decimals, percentages, and negative numbers (www.xpmath.com). First year algebra consists of using formulas (www.xpmath.com). In this paper I will explain in detail the math that I would use in the four different types of law offices
