Final Study Guide 2015

Final Study Guide

Hello all. Here's a quick rundown of the concepts you'll need to review for your final. Remember, we'll be working on review questions in class all week, so you'll know exactly what type of problems to expect on the real final. There are 37 questions. Please look over your notes from this year and make sure you study the assignments from this week. If you’re struggling with a particular concept, now is the time to ask – I’m more than happy to help! Also, don’t forget that your online textbook has some great resources for studying, like the Quick Checks for each chapter section.

Stuff you need to know:

- Remember the order of operations (PEMDAS) for ALL questions you answer

- Integer operations

- The coordinate plane (identifying coordinates of a given point – walk into the building before you        take the elevator!)

- Simplifying expressions (don’t forget – you can only add or subtract when there are like terms)
- Prime Factorization and GCF
- Exponent rules

 - Scientific and standard notation
- Comparing and ordering fractions/decimals

- Changing decimals to fractions and fractions to decimals
- Fractions operations

- Solving one-step equations

Take a breath and don’t stress – it’s the home stretch! Do your best. J
