|
Order Of Operations:
|
PEMDAS (Parentheses / Exponents / Multiply / Divide / Add / Subtract)
|
|
Arithmetic Sequences:
|
each term is equal to the previous term plus d Sequence: t1, t1 + d, t1 + 2d, . . . Example: d = 4 and t1 = 3 gives the sequence 3, 7, 11, 15, . . .
|
|
Geometric Sequences:
|
each term is equal to the previous term times r Sequence: t1, t1 · r, t1 · r2, . . . Example: r = 2 and t1 = 3 gives the sequence 3, 6, 12, 24, . . .

|
|
sum
|
Average*number of teerms
|
|
mode
|
value in the list that appears most often
|
|
median
|
middle value in the list (which must be sorted) Example: median of {3, 10, 9, 27, 50} = 10 Example: median of {3, 9, 10, 27} = (9 + 10)/2 = 9.5

Fundamental Counting Principle:
|
