Title: Algebra


1
Algebra!
  • ByMegan Zartman.

2
What I know already!
  • I already know that one way you can do algebra is
    with a scale and you have to find out what x
    equals to balance the scale!

3
Algebra levels.
  • Some people learn algebra in fourth grade and up
    and are very highly educated in the subject for
    starting so early!

4
Algebra signs.
  • I know that in algebra they usually have a sign.
    For example the x is shown as the unknown
    answer.

5
Geometry v/s algebra!
  • I know (because Miss Webb told me) that some
    people are better in algebra than geometry and
    some people are the other way around Oh no!

6
Math! (Duh!)
  • I know that algebra is one of the complicated
    types of math. Usually (because of it being
    complicated) algebra is used by higher grade
    levels.

7
Does algebra involve any other subject?
  • No , algebra does not use other subjects. Other
    subjects use algebra! (like science and chemistry)

8
Are there other ways to do algebra?
  • Yes, assign variables to the missing numbers and
    solve the problems for variables.

9
What careers involve algebra?
  • Some careers involving algebra is a scientist, an
    accountant, a nurse,etcetera.

10
Why instead of writing emc. They write emc2
  • Because when you square a number you multiply
    that number by itself and show that with a small
    2 after the number. In this formula c is a
    variable that is multiplied by itself or squared.

11
Why do people have problems being good at
geometry and algebra?
  • Because some people understand shapes better than
    numbers.

12
Algebra
  • The study of mathematical structure. Algebra is
    necessary for the study of calculus,number
    theory,equation theory,function theory or
    combinations of these.

13
Algebraic expressions.
  • An expression used in algebra. Examplea numeral
    3, .oI, ¼,103 a variablea,x,y the sum of any
    two expressions 8y,ab,x2,7(mn) the quotient of
    any two expressions.

14
Algebraic number!
  • A number that can be produced by
    addition,subtraction,multiplication,division,or
    extracting a root a finite number of times.

15
Algebra trick!
  • Think of a number 1-5. Add 1 to it. Double your
    answer. Then add 4. Divide what you get by 2. Now
    subtract 3.

16
Where algebra comes from!
  • The history of algebra began in ancient Egypt and
    Babylon! In the 3rd century, the Greek
    mathematician Diophantus of Alexandria, wrote the
    first treatise of algebra!

17
Where the word algebra came from.
  • The term algebra came from the Arabic word
    al-jabr which literally means the reunion of
    broken parts.

18
My unanswered question.
  • What was the first algebra equation?
