By Ron Larson

A part of the market-leading Graphing procedure sequence through Larson, Hostetler, and Edwards, Precalculus: A Graphing strategy, 5/e, is a perfect pupil and teacher source for classes that require using a graphing calculator. the standard and volume of the routines, mixed with attention-grabbing purposes and leading edge assets, make educating more straightforward and aid scholars be successful. carrying on with the sequence' emphasis on pupil aid, the 5th version introduces Prerequisite talents overview. For chosen examples during the textual content, the Prerequisite talents evaluation directs scholars to earlier sections within the textual content to study ideas and abilities had to grasp the cloth handy. furthermore, prerequisite talents evaluation routines in Eduspace (see lower than for description) are referenced in each workout set. The Larson group achieves accessibility via cautious writing and layout, together with examples with exact strategies that commence and finish at the comparable web page, which maximizes the clarity of the textual content. equally, side-by-side ideas convey algebraic, graphical, and numerical representations of the math and help various studying kinds.

Think About It Square the real number 2͞Ί5 and note that the radical is eliminated from the denominator. Is this equivalent to rationalizing the denominator? Why or why not? 3 Polynomials and Factoring What you should learn Polynomials An algebraic expression is a collection of variables and real numbers.

For example, 5 is a square root of 25 because 5 is one of the two equal factors of 25 ϭ 5 и 5. In a similar way, a cube root of a number is one of its three equal factors, as in 125 ϭ 53. Definition of the nth Root of a Number Let a and b be real numbers and let n ≥ 2 be a positive integer. If a ϭ bn then b is an nth root of a. If n ϭ 2, the root is a square root. If n ϭ 3, the root is a cube root. Some numbers have more than one nth root. For example, both 5 and Ϫ5 are square roots of 25. The principal square root of 25, written as Ί25, is the positive root, 5.

The _______ of a number is the nth root that has the same sign as a, and is denoted by Ί n a, 5. In the radical form Ί the positive integer n is called the _______ of the radical and the number a is called the _______ . 6. When an expression involving radicals has all possible factors removed, radical-free denominators, and a reduced index, it is in _______. 7. The expressions a ϩ bΊm and a Ϫ bΊm are _______ of each other. 8. The process used to create a radical-free denominator is known as _______ the denominator.
