Pre-Activity How are formulas used by nurses?
Read the introduction to Lesson 1-1 at the top of page 6 in your textbook.
Vd
• Nurses use the formula F to control the flow rate for IVs. Name
t
the quantity that each of the variables in this formula represents and the
units in which each is measured.
F represents the flow rate and is measured in drops

per minute.
Lesson 1-1
V represents the volume of solution and is measured in
milliliters .
d represents the drop factor and is measured in drops

per milliliter.
t represents time and is measured in minutes .
• Write the expression that a nurse would use to calculate the flow rate
of an IV if a doctor orders 1350 milliliters of IV saline to be given over
8 hours, with a drop factor of 20 drops per milliliter. Do not find the value
of this expression. 1350 20

Reading the Lesson
1. There is a customary order for grouping symbols. Brackets are used outside of
parentheses. Braces are used outside of brackets. Identify the innermost expression(s) in
each of the following expressions.
a. [(3 22) 8] 4 (3 22)
b. 9 [5(8 6) 2(10 7)] (8 6) and (10 7)
c. {14 [8 (3 12)2]} (63 100) (3 12)
2. Read the following instructions. Then use grouping symbols to show how the instructions
can be put in the form of a mathematical expression.
Multiply the difference of 13 and 5 by the sum of 9 and 21. Add the result to 10. Then
divide what you get by 2. [(13 5)(9 21) 10] 2
3. Why is it important for everyone to use the same order of operations for evaluating
expressions? Sample answer: If everyone did not use the same order of
operations, different people might get different answers.
Helping You Remember

4. Think of a phrase or sentence to help you remember the order of operations.
Sample answer: Please excuse my dear Aunt Sally. (parentheses;
exponents; multiplication and division; addition and subtraction)

Significant Digits
All measurements are approximations. The significant digits of an approximate
number are those which indicate the results of a measurement. For example, the
mass of an object, measured to the nearest gram, is 210 grams. The measurement
210
– g has 3 significant digits. The mass of the same object, measured to the
nearest 100 g, is 200 g. The measurement 200 g has one significant digit.
1. Nonzero digits and zeros between significant digits are significant. For
example, the measurement 9.071 m has 4 significant digits, 9, 0, 7, and 1.
2. Zeros at the end of a decimal fraction are significant. The measurement
0.050 mm has 2 significant digits, 5 and 0.
3. Underlined zeros in whole numbers are significant. The measurement
104,00
–0 km has 5 significant digits, 1, 0, 4, 0, and 0.
In general, a computation involving multiplication or division of measurements

cannot be more accurate than the least accurate measurement in the computation.
Thus, the result of computation involving multiplication or division of
measurements should be rounded to the number of significant digits in the least
accurate measurement.
Example The mass of 37 quarters is 210

– g. Find the mass of one quarter.
mass of 1 quarter 210
– g 37 210
– has 3 significant digits.
37 does not represent a measurement.
5.68 g Round the result to 3 significant digits.
Why?
Write the number of significant digits for each measurement.

Pre-Activity How is the Distributive Property useful in calculating store savings?
• Why are all of the amounts listed on the register slip at the top of page
11 followed by negative signs? Sample answer: The amount of
each coupon is subtracted from the total amount of
purchases so that you save money by using coupons.
• Describe two ways of calculating the amount of money you saved by
using coupons if your register slip is the one shown on page 11.
Sample answer: Add all the individual coupon amounts or
add the amounts for the scanned coupons and multiply the
sum by 2.
Reading the Lesson

1. Refer to the Key Concepts box on page 11. The numbers 2.5 7
and 0.010010001… both
involve decimals that “go on forever.” Explain why one of these numbers is rational and
Lesson 1-2
the other is irrational. Sample answer: 2.5 7 2.5757… is a repeating
decimal because there is a block of digits, 57, that repeats forever, so
this number is rational. The number 0.010010001… is a non-repeating
decimal because, although the digits follow a pattern, there is no block
of digits that repeats. So this number is an irrational number.
2. Write the Associative Property of Addition in symbols. Then illustrate this property by
finding the sum 12 18 45 in two different ways. (a b) c a (b c);
Sample answer: (12 18) 45 30 45 75;
12 (18 45) 12 63 75
3. Consider the equations (a b) c a (b c) and (a b) c c (a b). One of the
equations uses the Associative Property of Multiplication and one uses the Commutative
Property of Multiplication. How can you tell which property is being used in each
equation? The first equation uses the Associative Property of
Multiplication. The quantities a, b, and c are used in the same order, but
they are grouped differently on the two sides of the equation. The second
equation uses the quantities in different orders on the two sides of the
equation. So the second equation uses the Commutative Property of
Multiplication.

4. How can the meanings of the words commuter and association help you to remember the
difference between the commutative and associative properties? Sample answer:
A commuter is someone who travels back and forth to work or another
place, and the commutative property says you can switch the order when
two numbers that are being added or multiplied. An association is a
group of people who are connected or united, and the associative
property says that you can switch the grouping when three numbers are
added or multiplied.

Properties of a Group
A set of numbers forms a group with respect to an operation if for that operation
the set has (1) the Closure Property, (2) the Associative Property, (3) a member
which is an identity, and (4) an inverse for each member of the set.
Example 1Does the set {0, 1, 2, 3, …} form a group with respect to addition?
Closure Property: For all numbers in the set, is a b in the set? 0 1 1, and 1 is
in the set; 0 2 2, and 2 is in the set; and so on. The set has
closure for addition.
Associative Property: For all numbers in the set, does a (b c) (a b) c?
0 (1 2) (0 1) 2; 1 (2 3) (1 2) 3; and so on.
The set is associative for addition.
Identity: Is there some number, i, in the set such that i a a a i
for all a? 0 1 1 1 0; 0 2 2 2 0; and so on.
The identity for addition is 0.
Inverse: Does each number, a, have an inverse, a
, such that
a
a a a
i? The integer inverse of 3 is 3 since
3 3 0, and 0 is the identity for addition. But the set does not
contain 3. Therefore, there is no inverse for 3.
The set is not a group with respect to addition because only three of the four properties hold.
Example 2Is the set {1, 1} a group with respect to multiplication?

Closure Property: (1)(1) 1; (1)(1) 1; (1)(1) 1; (1)(1) 1
The set has closure for multiplication.
Associative Property: (1)[(1)(1)] (1)(1) 1; and so on
The set is associative for multiplication.
Identity: 1(1) 1; 1(1) 1
The identity for multiplication is 1.
Inverse: 1 is the inverse of 1 since (1)(1) 1, and 1 is the identity.
1 is the inverse of 1 since (1)(1) 1, and 1 is the identity.
Each member has an inverse.
The set {1, 1} is a group with respect to multiplication because all four properties hold.
Tell whether the set forms a group with respect to the given operation.

yourself. The reflexive property says that every number is equal to itself.
In geometry, symmetry with respect to a line means that the parts of a
figure on the two sides of a line are identical. The symmetric property of
equality allows you to interchange the two sides of an equation. The
equal sign is like the line of symmetry.

Pre-Activity How can an absolute value equation describe the magnitude of an
earthquake?
• What is a seismologist and what does magnitude of an earthquake mean?
a scientist who studies earthquakes; a number from 1 to 10
that tells how strong an earthquake is
• Why is an absolute value equation rather than an equation without

absolute value used to find the extremes in the actual magnitude of an
earthquake in relation to its measured value on the Richter scale?
Sample answer: The actual magnitude can vary from the
measured magnitude by up to 0.3 unit in either direction, so
an absolute value equation is needed.
• If the magnitude of an earthquake is estimated to be 6.9 on the Richter
scale, it might actually have a magnitude as low as 6.6 or as high
as 7.2 .
Reading the Lesson

1. Explain how a could represent a positive number. Give an example. Sample
answer: If a is negative, then a is positive. Example: If a 25, then
a (25) 25.
2. Explain why the absolute value of a number can never be negative. Sample answer:
The absolute value is the number of units it is from 0 on the number line.
The number of units is never negative.
3. What does the sentence b 0 mean? Sample answer: The number b is 0 or

greater than 0.
4. What does the symbol mean as a solution set? Sample answer: If a solution set Lesson 1-4
is , then there are no solutions.

5. How can the number line model for absolute value that is shown on page 28 of your
textbook help you remember that many absolute value equations have two solutions?
Sample answer: The number line shows that for every positive number,
there are two numbers that have that number as their absolute value.

Considering All Cases in Absolute Value Equations

You have learned that absolute value equations with one set of absolute value
symbols have two cases that must be considered. For example, | x 3 | 5 must
be broken into x 3 5 or (x 3) 5. For an equation with two sets of
absolute value symbols, four cases must be considered.
Consider the problem | x 2 | 3 | x 6 |. First we must write the equations

for the case where x 6 0 and where x 6 0. Here are the equations for
these two cases:
| x 2| 3 x 6
| x 2 | 3 (x 6)
Each of these equations also has two cases. By writing the equations for both
cases of each equation above, you end up with the following four equations:
x23x6 x 2 3 (x 6)
(x 2) 3 x 6 x 2 3 (x 6)
Solve each of these equations and check your solutions in the original equation,
| x 2 | 3 | x 6 |. The only solution to this equation is 52.
Solve each absolute value equation. Check your solution.

5. How many cases would there be for an absolute value equation containing
three sets of absolute value symbols? 8
6. List each case and solve | x 2 | | 2x 4 | | x 3 |. Check your solution.

is less than is greater than is at most is at least
is fewer than is more than is no more than is no less than
is less than or equal to is greater than or equal to
Example SPORTS The Vikings play 36 games this year. At midseason, they
have won 16 games. How many of the remaining games must they win in order to
win at least 80% of all their games this season?
Let x be the number of remaining games that the Vikings must win. The total number of
games they will have won by the end of the season is 16 x. They want to win at least 80%
of their games. Write an inequality with .
16 x 0.8(36)
x 0.8(36) 16
x 12.8
Since they cannot win a fractional part of a game, the Vikings must win at least 13 of the
games remaining.

Pre-Activity How are compound inequalities used in medicine?
Lesson 1-6
• Five patients arrive at a medical laboratory at 11:30 A.M. for a glucose
tolerance test. Each of them is asked when they last had something to
eat or drink. Some of the patients are given the test and others are told
that they must come back another day. Each of the patients is listed
below with the times when they started to fast. (The P.M. times refer to
the night before.) Which of the patients were accepted for the test?
Ora 5:00 A.M. Juanita 11:30 P.M. Jason and Juanita
Jason 1:30 A.M. Samir 5:00 P.M.
Reading the Lesson

1. a. Write a compound inequality that says, “x is greater than 3 and x is less than or
equal to 4.” 3 x 4
b. Graph the inequality that you wrote in part a on a number line.
5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5
2. Use a compound inequality and set-builder notation to describe the following graph.
{xx 1 or x 3}
5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5
3. Write a statement equivalent to 4x 5 2 that does not use the absolute value
symbol. 4x 5 2 or 4x 5 2
symbol. 8 3x 7 8

5. Many students have trouble knowing whether an absolute value inequality should be
translated into an and or an or compound inequality. Describe a way to remember which
of these applies to an absolute value inequality. Also describe how to recognize the
difference from a number line graph. Sample answer: If the absolute value
quantity is followed by a or symbol, the expression inside the
absolute value bars must be between two numbers, so this becomes an
and inequality. The number line graph will show a single interval between
two numbers. If the absolute value quantity is followed by a or
symbol, it becomes an or inequality, and the graph will show two
disconnected intervals with arrows going in opposite directions.

A7
The set is not a group with respect to addition because only three of the four properties hold.
2. Write the Associative Property of Addition in symbols. Then illustrate this property by
finding the sum 12 18 45 in two different ways. (a b) c a (b c); Example 2 Is the set {1, 1} a group with respect to multiplication?
Sample answer: (12 18) 45 30 45 75;

The set has closure for multiplication.
3. Consider the equations (a b) c a (b c) and (a b) c c (a b). One of the
equations uses the Associative Property of Multiplication and one uses the Commutative Associative Property: (1)[(1)(1)] (1)(1) 1; and so on

Multiplication. Each member has an inverse.
The set {1, 1} is a group with respect to multiplication because all four properties hold.
Tell whether the set forms a group with respect to the given operation.
4. How can the meanings of the words commuter and association help you to remember the
difference between the commutative and associative properties? Sample answer: 1. {integers}, addition yes 2. {integers}, multiplication no
