algebra

fractions

[a/b] + [c/b] gives [(a+c)/b]

multiplying [a/b] by [c/d] gives [ac/bd]

addition and multiplication

∑cai = c ∑ai where c is a constant (distributivity)

∑(ai ± bi) = ∑ai ± ∑bi (sum and difference rule)

∑i ∑j ai bj = ∑j ∑i ai bj(swapping the order of finite summation)

exponents

am * an is equal to am+n (where m and n are integers)

(ab)m is equal to am * bm (where m is an integer)

(am)n is equal to am*n (where m and n are integers)

(a/b)m is equal to (am)/(bm) (where m is an integer)

x0 = 1

x-n is equal to 1/(xn)

(am)÷(an) is equal to (am-n) (where m and n are integers)

m√a is equal to a1/m

m√(ab) is equal to (m√a) * (m√b)

n√(aq) is equal to (n√a)q
