Language is the system of words, signs and
symbols which people use to express ideas,
thoughts and feelings
Numerical Coefficient
Constant
ex. 3x + 10
Monomial
ex. 21(x + 8)
Binomial
ex. 5x + 12y
Trinomial
ex. 3x + 2(x + y) - 36
Equation
ex. 4x + 3 = 19
Inequality
ex. 2(x + y) = 2x + 2y
Conventions in the Mathematical Language
Context refers to the particular topics being
studied and it is important to understand the
context to understand mathematical symbols.
Kinds of Sets:
-Empty/Null/Void Set (ex. C = {x/x is an integer less than 2 but greater than 1})
-Finite Set (ex. A = {d, i, r, t})
-Infinite Set (ex. A = {…, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …} and B = {x/x is a set of whole numbers})
-Universal Set (ex. U = {x/x is an animal in Manila Zoo} and U = {1, 2, 3, …,100})
-Unit Set (Singleton) (ex. E = {x/x is a whole number greater than 1 but less than 3})
ex. let Set X consists of four students and Set Y consists of their favorite subjects, respectively:
X = {Alyssa, Elijah, Steph, Shei}
Y = {Chemistry, Math, Physics, Statistics}
The result is a set of ordered pairs of the form(x, y), written as:
{(Alyssa, Chemistry), (Elijah, Math), (Steph, Physics), (Shei, Statistics)}
Rules in performing operations of Functions
The sum f + g is the function defined by:
y = (f + g)x = f(x) + g(x)
1. Closure Property
2. Associative Property
3. Identity Property
4. Inverse Property
Logic is the science of formal principles of
reasoning or correct inference.
Existential Quantifiers
ex. There exists an x such that x is odd number and 2x is even number.
Universal Quantifiers
ex. For all x, if x is a positive integer, then 2x + 1 is an odd number
