When solving absolute value inequalities, solve > and > as _________. | OR |
When solving absolute value inequalities, solve < and < as _________. | AND |
The two types of compound inequalities | And, OR |
a+b=b+a Change in order | Commutative Of Addition |
a+0=a Adding zero to a number does not change its value | Identity Of Addition |
Switch sides a=b, b=a | Symmetric Property |
If a=b, and b=c, then a=c | Transitive Property |
a*b=b*a Change in order | Commutative Of Multiplication |
a*1=a Multiplying by 1 | Identity Of Multiplication |
a(b+c)=ab+ac or ab+ac=a(b+c)(Factor GCF) | Distributive Property |
When adding and multiplying real numbers, only one answer that is also a real number | Closure Property |
If a=b,then a+c=b+c Add same # to both sides | Addition Property |
a=a Both sides are the same | Reflexive Property |
a+(-a)=0 A number added to its opposite =0 | Inverse Of Addition |
(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)Change in grouping | Associative Of Addition |
If a=b,then a-c=b-c Subtract same # from both sides | Subtraction Property |
One quantity may replace another | Substitution Property |
a*(1/a)=1A number times its inverse =1 | Inverse Of Multiplication |
(a*b)*c=a*(b*c) A change in grouping | Associative Of Multiplication |
