algebra expressions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| algebraic expressions | have at least one variable and one expression |
| variable | a letter that represents an unknown value can use any letter |
| constant | a term without a variable; numbers |
| coefficient | the number part of a term with variables |
| term | a term is either a single number or variable, or numbers and variables multiplied together. |
| like term | two or more terms with the same variable or exponent. |
| sum | answer to a addition problem |
| difference | answer to a subtraction problem |
| product | answer to a multiplication problem |
| quotient | answer to a division problem |
| fewer than / less than | subtract reverse order of expression |
| how much more / less | subtract |
| % or fraction of | multiply |
| each | divide |
| than/ from | reverse the order |
| associative property | the way in which numbers are grouped when added or multiplied does not change the answer |
| commutative property | the order in which numbers are added or multiplied does not change the answer |
| identity property of addition | the sum of an addend & 0 is the same as the addend |
| identity property of multiplication | the product of any factor & 1 is the same as the factor |
| additive inverse property | adding a number and its opposite will produce a sum of zero |
| multiplicative inverse property | multiplying any number and its inverse equals one |
| associative property | (x+7)+9=x+(7+9) |
| associative property | 4(3x9)=(4x3)9 |
| commutative property | (x+7)+9=9+(7+x) |
| commutative property | 5x6=6x5 |
| identity property of addition | x+0=x |
| identity property of multiplication | 6(1)=6 |
| multiplicative inverse property | 4x1/4=1 |
| additive inverse property | -5+5=0 |
| distributive property | 4(x+3)=4x+12 |
| distributive property | 16+40=8(2+5) |
