|
Algebraic expression |
an algebraic expression is an expression built up from integer constants, variables, and the algebraic operations |
Are combinations of numbers and operations |
|
|
Associative property |
the associative property is a property of some binary operations. |
5+(2+7) = (5+2)+7 |
|
|
Variable |
A symbol for a number we dont know yet. It is usually a letter like x or y |
|
|
|
Coefficient |
The coefficients are the numbers that multiply the variables or letters. |
|
|
|
Communitive property |
The Commutative property states that order does not matter. Multiplication and addition are commutative. |
EX. 3 x 2 = 2 x 3 |
|
|
Constant |
A fixed value. In Algebra, a constant is a number on its own, or sometimes a letter such as a, b or c to stand for a fixed number. |
|
|
|
Distributive property |
The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products. |
7 (b + 2) = 7b + 14 |
|
|
Equivalent expressions |
Equivalent expressions are expressions that are the same, even though they may look a little different. |
|
|
|
Evaluate |
find a numerical expression or equivalent for (an equation, formula, or function). |
|
|
|
Define the variable |
(of a quantity) able to assume different numerical values. |
|
|
|
Factor the expression |
one of two or more numbers, algebraic expressions, or the like, that when multiplied together produce a given product; a divisor: 6 and 3 are factors of 18. |
|
|
|
Term |
each of the quantities in a ratio, series, or mathematical expression. |
|
|
|
Numeral expression |
A numerical expression is a mathematical sentence involving only numbers and one or more operation symbols. |
|
|
|
Order of operations |
The order of operations used throughout mathematics, science, technology and many computer programming languages is expressed here: exponents and roots. PEMDAS |
Tells which operation to perform first |
|
|
Perfect square |
the product of a rational number multiplied by itself. |
|
|
|
Power |
The power of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication. |
|
|
|
Properties |
The properties are the commutative, associative, additive identity and distributive properties. |
Statements that are true for any number
