Roots/ Polynomials:
If f(x) is a polynomial of degree n where n>0, then f has at least one zero in the
complex # system.

Sequences
A sequence is a function whose domain is the set of positive integers
Ex. An=3n-2 sequence is 1,4,7,10…
Factorials review: n! = 1·2·3...n
0!=1
5!3!=5×4=20
Summation notation:
i=1nai=a1+a2…+an
Example:
i=372i-1=5+7+9+11+13=45
Arithmetic Sequences
A1,A2,A3…,An
A2 – A1 =d A3 – A2 =d you get the idea
d is the common difference
1, 4, 7, 10 d=3 an=a1+(n-1)d
Sum of finite arithmetic sequence: Sn= n2(a1+an)=n(a1+an2)
Geometric Sequences:
A2/ A1 = A3/ A2=r
An=a1rn-1
Sum of a Finite Geometric Sequence
Sn=1-rn1-r= a1-arn1-r
Quadratics:
Lim x2+5 = (2)2 +5 = 9
x2
Proof:
|( x2 +5)-(9)|<E Let ≤1 then |x-2|<1 and |x+2|<5. If we also let |x-2|<E/5 then
| x2 – 4|<E the product:
|x+2| |x-2|<E |x+2| |x-2|<E
let ≤ 1 |x2 – 4|<E
|x-2| <1 |( x2 +5)-(9)|<E
-1<x-2<1 so choose =1 or E/5 whichever is smaller than whenever x E
3<x+2<5 <2-δ, 2+ > and x 2 then x2+5 E <9-E, 9+E> and the limit is 9
|x+2|<5
|x+2| |x-2|<E
|x-2|(5)<E
|x-2|<E/5
δ<E/5
Rationals:
Proof:
Lim (x+4)/(x-2) = (3+4)/(3-2) = 7
Let ≤ ½ then |x-3|<1/2 and |1/(x-2)|<2. If we also let |x-3|
x 3 <E/12 then the product:
X ∞
Lim (x+1)/(x-1) = 1

x ∞
Lim (x+1)/(x-1) = 1
x+∞ ***notice the positive sign
1-E< (x+1)/(x-1) < 1+E
(x-1)(1-E)<x+1
1-xE-1+E<x+1
-2/E + 1<x
true
x+1< (1+E)(x-1)
x+1<x-1+Ex-E
2/E + E/E < E/E –x
2/E +1 <x
Lim (x+1)/(x-1) = 1
x-∞ ***notice the negative sign
x+1>(1+E)(x-1)
x+1>x-1+Ex-E
1>1+Ex-E
2+E>Ex
x<2/E +1
true since x-∞ so x is a negative
Proof:
Choose |x0| = |2/E +1| **choose the value farther from zero if there are 2 different answers** then for all |
x|>|x0| (x+1)/(x-1) E <1-E, 1+E> and the limit is 1.
y = loga x
if
x = ay
remember e is just the natural log, and can be used like any other number
so
loge x = ln x
u
loga = loga u − loga v
v
loga u n = n loga u
u
ln( ) = ln(u) − ln(v)
v
lnu n = n lnu
A = Pe rt
decimal)
this formula is used for continuous compounding which means that the investment
is compounded an infinite amount of times per year (t). A is the ending amount
t is the number of years and n is the number of times per year the
r
A = P(1+ ) nt

amount P is compounded. R is the rate of interest (write 3% as .03)
