Learning Outcomes:

• translate between scientific notation and decimal numbers
• practice basic math operations on two numbers given in scientific notation
• convert a given physical quantity from the unit in which it was expressed to any other unit (such as meter to feet)
• draw a graph given points, a set of experimental data, or a simple algebraic equation
• manipulate algebraic expressions and solve linear equations with one and two unknowns
• use the Pythagorean Theorem and definitions of sine, cosine, and tangent to calculate triangle sides and angles
• define the two components of a vector as well as its magnitude and direction, and find the sum or difference of two vectors
• perform base ten exponential and logarithmic computations
• differentiate between the two forms of power ratios, dB and numerical, and how to convert between them, and calculate system gain in both forms
• convert between the octal, hexadecimal, and binary number systems, and perform simple arithmetic operations within each system
• perform basic math operations with signed numbers, positive and negative integer powers
