| inequality | is a mathematical sentence that uses symbols such as <, ≤,="">, or ≥ to compare two quantities.solution set |
| inference | the process of arriving at some conclusion that, though it is not logically derivable from the assumed premises, possesses some degree of probability relative to the premises. |

| circumference.circumference | perimeter of a circle |
| percent of change(increase/decrease) | A rate of change expressed as a percent. Example |
| cross products | two equal products obtained by multiplying the second term of each ratio by the first term of the other ratio in a production. |
| probability | A number between 0 and 1 used to quantify likelihood for processes that have uncertain outcomes (such as tossing a coin, selecting a person at random from a group of people, tossing a ball at a target, or testing for a medical condition). |

| multiplicative inverse | Two numbers whose product is 1 are multiplicative inverses of one another. Example |
| experimental probability | the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials or times the activity is performed. |
