- Basic operations with real
- Objectives
This module is from Elementary Algebra by Denny Burzynski and Wade Ellis, Jr.
The basic operations with real numbers are presented in this chapter. The concept of absolute value is discussed both geometrically and symbolically. The geometric presentation offers a visual understanding of the meaning of |x|. The symbolic presentation includes a literal explanation of how to use the definition. Negative exponents are developed, using reciprocals and the rules of exponents the student has already learned. Scientific notation is also included, using unique and real-life examples.This module contains the objectives of the chapter "Basic Operations with Real Numbers".
