Introduction to ArtificiaI Intelligence in Higher Education
Pre-Algebra Final Review
1. -Step one: Clean out your file
in the back!
-Look for any notes handed in!
-Also, look for any vocabulary!
-Grab all your old tests!
2. • Integer: A positive or negative whole number
including zero.
• Whole Number: Any number over one.
• Number Line: A line where all negative numbers
are on the left, zero is in the middle, and
positive numbers are on the right.
• Positive Number: Any number on the right side
of the number line.
• Negative Number: Any number on the left side
of the number line.
• Increasing Order: Smallest to biggest.
3. • When Signs are the same, add the
numbers!
EX: -5 - 1 = 5 + 1
• Answer gets the sign of the larger
number.
5 is the largest number
it’s sign is a (-).
Answer is -6.
4. • When Signs are the different subtract the
numbers.
EX: -5 + 1 = 5 - 1
• Answer gets the sign of the larger
number.
5 is the largest number
it’s sign is a (-).
Answer is -4.
5. Let’s Practice
1) 5 - 6 =
2) -3 + 2 =
3) 6 + 5 =
4) -8 + 7 =
5) 9 - 9 =
Remember: If signs are the same add
the numbers, if signs are different
subtract the numbers. Then give the
answer the sign of the largest number!

6. Rules for Integers
• When Parenthesis ( ) are
involved we get to doodle!
• This is where you need to draw
some faces. (Bet you didn’t know
you’d be doing Art in Math!)
7. Rules for Adding & Subtracting Integers
Continued
• When you multiply a (+ x -) you get a (-).
• When you multiply a (- x -) you get a (+).
• When you multiply a (+ x +) you get a (+).
5 + (-1) = 4
5 – (-1) = 6
5 + (+5) = 10

8. Let’s Practice
1) 4 – (-5) =
2) 9 + (-7) =
3) 6 – (+2) =
4) 8 – (-7) =
5) 9 + (+3) =
Remember: DRAW the faces first! If signs are
the same add the numbers, if signs are
different subtract the numbers. Then give the
answer the sign of the largest number!

3) 1 – (+2) =
4) 5 – (-3) =
5) 7 – (-6) =
Remember: DRAW the faces first! If signs are
the same add the numbers, if signs are
different subtract the numbers. Then give the
answer the sign of the largest number!

10. • Reciprocal: Flipping of a fraction.
• Rational Number: All real numbers… -
3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3…
• Absolute Value: Two lines on either
side of a number asking how far away
from zero.
• Product: To multiply
• Quotient: To divide
11. Rules for
Multiplying Integers (x)
• The product of two integers with
the same signs is POSITIVE.
• The product of two integers with
different signs is NEGATIVE.
12. Rules Summary for
Multiplication
• Positive x Positive = Positive
• Negative x Negative = Positive
• Positive x Negative= Negative
• Negative x Positive = Negative
13. Let’s Practice “Multiplication”
1) 6 x (-3) =
2) 3 x 3 =
3) -4 x 5 =
4) -6 x (-2) =
5) -7 x (-8) =

Remember:
Positive x Positive = Positive
Negative x Negative = Positive
Positive x Negative= Negative
Negative x Positive = Negative
14. Did you know that
the rules for
multiplication and
division are the
same?
15. Rules for
Dividing Integers (÷)
• The quotient of two integers
with the same signs is POSITIVE.
• The quotient of two integers
with different signs is NEGATIVE.
18. • Denominator: Bottom number of a
fractions.
• Numerator: Top number of a fraction.
• Whole Number: Any number over
one.
• Bar: The line between two numbers
creating a fraction.
19. 1. Count by the bottom number.
2. Circle the match.
3. Count over to the match.
4. Multiply by the old top number.
5. Add/Subtract
• Play with the top-leave the bottom alone.
• Remember to borrow if you need to.
6. Divide if top number is bigger
7. Reduce if you need to.
New

25. • Improper Fraction: When the numerator is
larger than the denominator.
• Proper Fraction: When a fraction has been
simplified and reduced fully.
• Reduce: To divide the top and bottom
number of a fraction by the same number.
• Simplify: To make an improper fraction
proper.
26. Reduce if you can:
You can’t reduce side to side!
Multiply straight across.
Divide if top number is bigger.
28. Flip the SECOND fraction = Change the sign
Reduce if you can:
You can’t reduce side to side!
Multiply straight across.
Divide if top number is bigger.
30. • Inverse Operation: Addition & Subtraction
or Multiplication & Division.
• Fulcrum: Equal sign.
• Additive Inverse Strategy: Moves opposite
of the whole term to the other side.
• Multiplicative Inverse Strategy: Moves
part of the term to the other side.
31. Solve the following equation for x:
x – 4 = 9
+ 4 +4
x = 13
We are able to get the x by itself
by ADDING 4 to each side!
32. Solve the following equation for p:
p + 7 = 21
- 7 - 7
p = 14
We are able to get the p by itself
by SUBTRACTING 7 from each side!
33. Solve the following equation for m
3 m = 18
• Divide both sides by 3 and simplify --
your work should look like this :
3 m = 18
3 3
m = 6
34. Solve the following equation for n:
2n = 3
5 7
• Multiply each side by the inverse of 2
5 :
5 • 2n = 3 • 5
2 5 7 2
n = 15

35. • Variable: A letter or symbol that stands for an
unknown number.
• Terms: Parts of an algebraic expression of an
equation separated by operations.
• Coefficient: The number in front of a variable.
• Like Terms: Terms that have the same variable.
• Constant: A number not attached to a
variable.
• Combining Like Terms: Putting together terms
that have the same variable.
36. Rule 1: Each action should get the letter (variable) closer
to being alone.
Rule2: Additive inverse strategy moves the opposite of
the whole term to the other side.
>change signs - cancel – keep or put with a like
term
Rule 3: Multiplicative inverse strategy moves part of a
term to the other side.
>if a number is next to variable – divide
>if a number is below variable - multiply
Rule 4: Combining like terms put terms with same
ending together that are on the same side of the equal
sign.
