Most Important Algebra 1 Topics
The Top Ten
I rank this number 1 because you will be taught this every year in math until you stop going to school. It is very important to memorize this topic now so you will know it better.
Out of all the concepts, this is the one I am having the toughest time on. Is there a problem with my algebraic thinking, or is it really that hard. I am in 8th grade advanced math, but feel like dropping advanced math if I don't understand the concept.
You just need to know this.
THIS IS 1 OF THE BEST TOPICS YOU WILL EVER LEARN IN MATH> PLUS IT US EASY...
SO GET LEARNING!
This is one of the new topics that is being taught to you in Algebra 1. Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, and dividing are all easy. But when it comes to factoring them, it gets harder and harder.
I like polynomials and there are more in it that is yet to be discovered in their next years in high school
Hard and annoying. Learning is a must.
I am having a big problem with factoring in my math knowledge. That and quadratic equations
It is one of the most difficult sections for students to learn.
Like slope, this should be a review from 7th and 8th grade, but in Algebra 1, it gets a lot harder. Sequences get easy after you memorize the formulas for Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences.
These two topics kind of go together. Most of you will not use exponents or radicals in real life, but it is a very important topic to learn. If you do not know how to solve exponents and radical equations in algebra 2, you will get destroyed. These topics are a big part of algebra 2 also.
They are everywhere!
Solving a Systems of Equations is easy, but when it comes to the word problems, it is very hard. You have to put a lot of study time in for the word problems.
This is most likely review except for absolute value. Absolute Value is tricky at first, but very easy after a while.
It is a unit that will go by really fast and is pretty simple if you ask me. A² + B² = C²
Annoying
Classifying numbers is easy. Anyone could do it. This is probably the easiest unit in Algebra 1. But it is very important to remember how to classify numbers.
The Contenders
This unit should be a review from 7th and 8th grade but is really important to understand.
Not hard to do if you have a calculator but it will show up on the regents. You must know it
It hard but if you master it will help you lot
In this unit you are basically memorizing formulas that they give you to solve mathmatical equations. They will probably give you the formulas on the EOC. But somehow this topic made the list.
