The topics covered in Chapter 7 (Radical Equations and Inequalities) will help prepare students for Precalculus. The inverse of a quadratic function is a square root function when the range is restricted to nonnegative numbers. The concept of equations and inequalities based on square root functions carries over into solving radical equations and inequalities. Many formulas involve square roots. The math solutions to these are always analyzed for reasonableness in the context of the situation.
Tomorrow we will…
Learn about nth roots and operations with radical expressions
