Preliminary
Real Number
Real numbers are numbers that can be expressed as decimals,
for instance:
Real line
Komutatif : a + b = b + a;ab = ba
Distributif : a(b + c) = ab + ac
order properties
The order properties allow us to compare the size of any
two numbers. The order properties are:
For any a and b, either a b or b a or both
If a b or b a then a = b
If a b and b c then a c
If a b then If a + c b + c
If a b and If 0 c then ac bc
Set
A set is a collection of objects, and these objects are the
elements of the set. Some useful notation about set and
element:
If S is a set, the notation a S means that a is an element
of S,and a / S means thata is not an element of S.
If S and Tare sets,ST then is their union and consists of
all elements belonging either to S or T (or to both S and T).
Intervals
A subset of the real line is called an interval if it contains at
least two numbers and contains all the real numbers lying
between any two of its elements. For example 0 < x < 10. The
detail of the interval is as follow:
Type of intervals
Absolute Value
Some properties of absolute value are:
and also
y1 mx1), while
,0)
if two line are parallel, then they have the same slope (m1
= m2).
if two line are perpendicular, then the product of slope is
equal to -1(m1m2 = 1).
Parabolas
General equation
y = ax2 + bx + c
if a > 0 the the parabola opens upward and if a < 0, the
parabola open downward. The axis line is expressed as:

Power function
General equation: y = f(x) = xa

Even and Odd Function
Definition: A function y = f(x) is an
even function of x if f(x) = f(x)
even function of x if f(x) =
f(x)

Mathematical Models
Mathematical model is a representation of simplified real
phenomenon. It is used to observe the behavior of real system
when direct observation is not possible due to complex system
or costly. Since it is simplified representation, there will be a
discrepancy. However, the model should be as close as possible
to real system and retain the simplification. The process in
obtaining mathematical model from real world is given below:
