Term
Definition
Ratio   two quantities, a comparison of two numbers, can be written as: # to #, # : #, or #/#  
🗑
Variable   an unknown, represented by a letter  
🗑
Rates   show up everywhere in the real world, ratios of two quantities, both of which are changing or varying  
🗑
Expression   a group or combination or numbers that we know and ones we don't (variables), does not have an equal sign  
🗑
Order of Operations (PEMDAS)   the "rules" for solving an expression, the order of steps you need to take to solve an expression, order: (parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division, addition and subtraction)  
🗑
Commutative Property of Addition   gives permission to rewrite addition problems in different orders than what are normally given, changes the order of the numbers without changing the sum  
🗑
Commutative Property of Multiplication   gives permission to rewrite multiplication problems in different orders than what are normally given, changes the order of the numbers without changing the product  
🗑
Associative Property of Addition   gives permission to rewrite addition problems in different orders than what are normally given, changing the location of the parentheses around numbers without changing the sum  
🗑
Associative Property of Multiplication   gives permission to rewrite multiplication problems in different orders than what are normally given, changing the location of the parentheses around numbers without changing the product  
🗑
Evaluating Expressions   finding the results of the calculations of an expression when all variable values are known  
🗑
Binomial   an expression with two terms  
🗑
Equivalent Expressions   two (or more) algebraic expressions that have the same value for every value of the substitution variable (or variables); no matter what value you stick in for x (or y or z) the two expressions come out equal  
🗑
Factoring Expressions   the process of writing an equivalent expression as purely the product of other expressions  
🗑
Distributive Property of Addition over Multiplication   gives permission to rewrite multiplication problems in different orders than what are normally given; if a, b, and c all represent real numbers then: a (b + c) = a x b + a x c; applying a multiplication to all parts of a sum  
🗑
Distributive Property of Addition over Division   gives permission to rewrite division problems in different orders than what are normally given; if a, b, and c all represent real numbers then: b + c / a = b / a + c / a; applying a division to all parts of a sum  
🗑
Trinomial   an expression with three terms  
🗑
