|
||||
prime number | a whole number greater than one that has exactly 2 factors, 1 and itself (example: 17)
🗑
|
||||
composite number | a whole number that has more than 2 factors (example: 6 has factors of 1, 2, 3, and 6)
🗑
|
||||
prime factorization | a composite number written as the product of its prime factors (example: 20 = 2 x 2 x 5)
🗑
|
||||
greatest common factor (GCF) | the greatest whole number that divides evenly into 2 or more whole numbers
🗑
|
||||
multiple | the product of a number and any whole number
🗑

||||
evaluate an algebraic expression | substitute a number for the variable and simplify
🗑
|
||||
verbal expressions | words that can be translated into algebraic expressions
🗑
|
||||
term | a number, variable, or a product of numbers and variables (examples: 7 z 8y 12xy )
🗑
|
||||
coefficient | a number that is multiplied by a variable in an algebraic expression (example: 8 in 8x)
🗑
|
||||
like terms | terms with the same variable raised to the same power (example: 7x and 10x )
🗑
|
||||
equation | a mathematical statement that 2 expressions are equal in value (example: 7x+10=24)
🗑
|
||||
solution | the value of the variable that makes a statement(equation)true
🗑
|
||||
solve | to find the SOLUTION to an equation
🗑
|
||||
isolate the variable | get the variable ALONE on one side of the equation
🗑
|
||||
Addition Property of Equality | You can ADD the same amount to both sides of an equation and the statement will still be true
🗑
|
||||
inverse operations | operations which "undo" each other (example: addition and subtraction)
🗑
|
||||
Subtraction Property of Equality | You can SUBTRACT the same amount to both sides of an equation and the statement will still be true
🗑
|
||||
Multiplication Property of Equality | You can MULTIPLY both sides of an equation by the same amount and the statement will still be true
🗑
|
||||
Division Property of Equality | You can DIVIDE both sides of an equation by the same amount and the statement will still be true
🗑
