SLO VOCAB set 1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| absolute value | the distance between a number and zero on a number line |
| additive identity | zero |
| y-intercept | the y-coordinate of a point where a line crosses the y-axis also known as "b" |
| zero of a function | an x-value for which f(x) = 0 (or y = 0) |
| whole number | the set of natural (counting) numbers and zero |
| volume | a measurement of the space that would fill an object |
| additive inverse | the opposite of a number |
| algebraic expression | contains numbers, variables, and operations |
| area | a measurement of the space an object covers |
| associative property | a(b x c) = (a x b)c OR x + (y + Z) = (x + y) + z |
| axis of symmetry | a line that passes through the vertex and divides the parabola into two symmetric parts |
| base | the number in a power that represents the factor being repeatedly multiplied |
| binomial | a polynomial with two terms |
| coefficient | the number part of a term with a variable part |
| commutative property | a + b = b + a OR m + n = n + m |
| complementary angles | two or more angles that have a sum of 90 degrees |
| composite number | a whole number with factors other than one and itself |
| compound inequality | two inequalities joined by and or or |
| conclusion | the "then" part of a conditional statement |
| conditional statements | contain a hypothesis and conclusion |
| congruent | equal in size |
| constant term | a term in an expression or equation that has no variable part |
| converse | a statement formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion of a conditional statement |
| correlation | the relationship between paired data, it can be positive, negative , or relatively no |
| constant term | a term that contains a number but no variable part |
| counterexample | an example used to show that an if -then statement is false |
| cross products property | can be used to solve for an unknown value in a proportion a/b = c/d is the same as ad = bc |
| denominator | the number below the fraction bar that show s the number of equal-sized parts the whole has been divided into |
| dependent variable | the output of a function, y, range of a function |
| direct variation | y = ax when a does not equal zero |
