Tomaster problem solving one needs a tremendous amount of practice doing problems. Themore problems you do the better you will be at doing them, as patterns will start to emergein both the problems and in successful approaches to them.

5 You will learn fastest and bestif you devote some time to doing problems every the most difficult problems are story problems, since they require some effortbefore you can begin calculating. Here are some pointers for doing story read each problem twice before writing letters to quantities that are described only in words; draw a diagram which letters are constants and which are variables. A letter stands for aconstant if its value remains the same throughout the mathematical notation, write down what you know and then write downwhat you want to what category of problem it is (this might be obvious if the problem comesat the end of a particular chapter, but will not necessarily be so obvious if it comeson an exam covering several chapters).

6 Check each step as you go along; don t wait until the end to check common sense; if an answer is out of the range of practical possibilities, thencheck your work to see where you went for Using This the example problems carefully, filling in any steps that are left out (asksomeone if you can t follow the solution to a worked example). use the worked examples to study by covering the solutions, and seeing ifyou can solve the problems on your exercises have answers in AppendixB; the availability of an answer is markedby at the end of the exercise. In the pdf version of the full text, clickingon the arrow will take you to the answer. The answers should be used only asa final check on your work, not as a crutch.

7 Keep in mind that sometimes ananswer could be expressed in various ways that are algebraically equivalent, sodon t assume that your answer is wrong just because it doesn t have exactly thesame form as the answer in the few figures in the book are marked with (JA) at the end of the on this should open a related Java applet in your web Useful FormulasAlgebraRemember that the common algebraic operations haveprecedencesrelative to eachother: for example, mulitplication and division take precedence over addition andsubtraction, but are tied with each other. In the case of ties, work left to right. Thismeans, for example, that 1/2xmeans (1/2)x: do the division, then the multiplicationin left to right order.

However, the exampleswill be oriented toward applications and so will take some the (x, y) coordinate system we normally write thex-axis horizontally, with positivenumbers to the right of the origin, and they-axis vertically, with positive numbers abovethe origin. That is, unless stated otherwise, we take rightward to be the positivex-direction and upward to be the positivey-direction. In a purely mathematical situation,we normally choose the same scale for thex- andy-axes. For example, the line joining theorigin to the point (a, a) makes an angle of 45 with thex-axis (and also with they-axis).

10 But in applications, often letters other thanxandyare used, and often different scalesare chosen in thexandydirections. For example, suppose you drop something from awindow, and you want to study how its height above the ground changes from second tosecond. It is natural to let the lettertdenote the time (the number of seconds since theobject was released) and to let the letterhdenote the height. For eacht(say, at one-secondintervals) you have a corresponding heighth. This information can be tabulated, and thenplotted on the (t, h) coordinate plane, as shown in use the word quadrant for each of the four regions the plane is divided into: thefirst quadrant is where points have both coordinates positive, or the northeast portionof the plot, and the second, third, and fourth quadrants are counted off counterclockwise,so the second quadrant is the northwest, the third is the southwest, and the fourth is 1 Analytic Figure data we have two pointsA(2,1) andB(3,3) in the (x, y)-plane.
