This program will also help determine what type of course or intervention will best meet your needs to help you become better prepared for college-level course work if you are not ready.  \nMath Topics Covered:  \no Elementary Algebra and Functions  \no Linear equations, inequalities, and systems  \no Algebraic expressions and equations  \no Word problems and applications  \no Intermediate Algebra and Functions  \no Quadratic and other polynomial expressions, equations and functions  \no Expressions, equations and functions involving powers, roots, and radicals  \no Rational and exponential expressions, equations and functions  \no Geometry and Measurement  \no Plane geometry  \no Transformations and symmetry  \no Linear, area and three-dimensional measurements  \no Data Analysis, Statistics and Probability  \no Interpreting categorical and quantitative data  \no Statistical measures  \no Probabilistic reasoning  \nApproaching Math Word Problems:  \no Identify the question being asked  \no Be sure to know what the question is asking  \no Identify “clue words”  \no Develop an advanced plan, with each stage handled by a “math tool”  \no Create a diagram, chart, list, graph, etc.  \no Make sure information is in the same units  \nFree Math Practice Websites:  \n[www.tsipracticetest.com](www.tsipracticetest.com)  \n[www.khanacademy.org](www.khanacademy.org)  \n[www.math.com](www.math.com)  \n[www.purplemath.com](www.purplemath.com)  \nFORMULA SHEET  \nProperties of Equality  \nIf A, B, and C represents algebraic expressions, then:  \n1. If 􀡭 = 􀡮 , then 􀡭 + 􀡯 = 􀡮 + 􀡯 .  \n2. If 􀡭 = 􀡮 , then 􀡭 − 􀡯 = 􀡮 − 􀡯.  \n3. If 􀡭 = 􀡮 , then 􀡯􀡭 = 􀡯􀡮 .  \n4. If 􀡭 = 􀡮, and 􀡯 ≠ 􀫙 then 􀡭􀡯 = 􀡮􀡯 .  \n5. 􀡯 (􀡭 + 􀡮) = (􀡭 + 􀡮)􀡯 = 􀡭􀡯 + 􀡮􀡯  \nAddition Property Subtraction Property Multiplication Property Division Property Distribution Property  \nStrategy for Solving Linear Equation in One Variable  \n• Eliminate parentheses using the distributive property, and then combine any like terms.  \n• Use the addition or the subtraction property of equality to write the equation with all variable terms on one side, and all constants on the other side. Simplify each side.  \n• Use the multiplication or the division property of equality to obtain an equation of the form 􀝔 is a constant.  \nStrategy for Solving Word Problems  \n• Gather and organize information.  \nRead the problem several times, forming a mental picture as you read. Highlight any key phrases. List given information, including any related formulas. Clearly identify what you are asked to find.  \n• Make the problem visual.  \nDraw and label a diagram or create a table of values, as appropriate. This will help you see how different parts of the problem fit together.  \n• Develop an equation model.  \nAssign a variable to represent what you are asked to find and build any related expressions referred to in the problem. Write an equation model based on the relationships given in the problem. Carefully re-read the problem to double-check your equation model.  \n• Use the model and given information to solve the problem.  \nSubstitute given values, then simplify and solve. State the answer in sentence form, and check that the answer is reasonable. Include any units of measure as indicated.  \nSpecial Factorizations  \n􀝔 2 − 􀝕 2 = (􀝔 + 􀝕)(􀝔 − 􀝕)  \n􀝔 2 ± 2􀝔􀝕 + 􀝕 2 = (􀝔 ± 􀝕)2  \n􀝔 3 − 􀝕 3 = (􀝔 − 􀝕)(􀝔 2 + 􀝔􀝕 + 􀝕2)  \n􀝔 3 + 􀝕 3 = (􀝔 + 􀝕)(􀝔 2 − 􀝔􀝕 + 􀝕2)  \nA polynomial that cannot be factored is called a prime polynomial.  \nLinear Equation  \n• Given the two points (􀝔1, 􀝕1) and (􀝔2, 􀝕2), the slope of the line passing through these points is Δ􀝕 􀝕2 − 􀝕1  \n􀝉 = ~~ ~~ = ~~ ~~Δ􀝔 􀝔2 − 􀝔1  \n• Standard form of the equation of a line is given by  \n􀜣􀝔 + 􀜤􀝕 = 􀜥  \n• Slope-intercept form of a line is given by  \n􀝕 = 􀝉􀝔 + 􀜾  \n• Point-slope form o","cbCairhcotHoxM0k","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairhcotHoxM0k","pdf",364771,14,"English","# Math Topics Covered\n## Approaching Math Word Problems\n# Free Math Practice Websites\n# Formula Sheet\n## Properties of Equality and Core Strategies\n## Linear and Quadratic Equations\n## Statistics and Probability\n# TSIA Sample Mathematics Questions\n## Directions for questions 1–15","[{\"question\":\"What areas of math are covered in the TSI Mathematics assessment prep packet?\",\"answer\":\"The packet covers elementary and intermediate algebra, linear and quadratic equations, polynomial expressions, powers/roots/radicals, rational and exponential expressions, geometry and measurement, transformations and symmetry, and data analysis, statistics, and probability.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the packet recommend approaching math word problems?\",\"answer\":\"It recommends identifying the question, using clue words, developing a staged plan with math tools, creating diagrams or tables as needed, ensuring unit consistency, and then solving and checking that answers are reasonable.\"},{\"question\":\"What is included in the formula sheet section?\",\"answer\":\"The formula sheet includes properties of equality, strategy steps for solving linear equations and word problems, special factorizations, standard/point-slope/slope-intercept forms of line equations, quadratic forms and formulas, and definitions for mean, median, and mode.\"}]","TSI Mathematics Test Prep - Correct Packet FEB2020 | PDF",1789437646,35,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":99},[100,104,108,111,115,120,125,130,135,138,142],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":110},70,"exam",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":112,"show_sort_weight":113,"slug":114},"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":116,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":117,"show_sort_weight":118,"slug":119},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":121,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":122,"show_sort_weight":123,"slug":124},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":127,"show_sort_weight":128,"slug":129},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":134},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":133,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":137},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":139,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":140,"show_sort_weight":139,"slug":141},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":143,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":144,"show_sort_weight":55,"slug":145},19,"General","general"]
