Chapter 2 / REVIEW Linear Equations and Inequalities in One Variable What’s the big idea? Chapter 2 provides us with the skills to solve equations and inequalities in one variable. Knowing how to solve these equations and inequalities gives us the foundation we need to solve some word problems. The properties that enable us to solve these types of problems also provide the framework for us to solve more difficult equations, which will be encountered in later chapters. The Tools Study Tips Listed below are the key terms, skills, formulas, and properties you should know for this chapter. The page reference is provided if you need additional help with the given topic. The Study Tips will assist in your preparation for an exam. 1. Learn all of the terms, formulas, and properties. Make flash cards and have someone quiz you. 2. Rework problems from the exercises and also the ones you worked in class. Work additional problems from the review exercises. 3. Review the summaries of key concepts. 4. Work the chapter test. 5. Be sure to review the online resources for additional study materials.
