What are some mnemonics for algebra?

Can you give me some mnemonics to remember algebra formulas?

Sure! One popular mnemonic for remembering the order of operations is "PEMDAS": Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

That's helpful! What about remembering the quadratic formula?

For the quadratic formula, you can use the mnemonic "x equals negative b, plus or minus the square root of b squared minus four a c, all over two a." You can shorten it to "x = -b ± √(b² - 4ac) / 2a" to make it easier to recall.

Are there any mnemonics for factoring?

Yes! A common one is "FOIL" for multiplying two binomials: First, Outside, Inside, Last. It helps you remember the order of multiplication.

Can you suggest any for remembering the properties of exponents?

Absolutely! For the product of powers property, you can remember "Add the exponents" when multiplying like bases. For the power of a power property, think "Multiply the exponents" when raising a power to another power.
