Additive inverses
(Opposites) Ex -8 + 8 = 0
Absolute value
The distance from 0 on the number line
Associative property
(A+b)+c=a+(b+c) (ab)c = a(bc)
Commutative property
x+y=y+x xy=yx
Compound Inequality
Two or more inequalities joined by and/or
Distributive property
5(x+8)=5x+40
Domain
The x-values in a relation
Equation
Mathematical sentence that contains an = and can be solved
Evaluate
Substitute in given values and then simplify
Expression
Mathematical phrase, doesn’t have a = or >. Can’t be solved
Extraneous solution
When a solution to the problem doesn’t make the original problem true
Function
A relation in which no x-value repeats
Inequality
A mathematical sentence that has a > or <, can be solved
Literal equation
Formula
Multiplicative inverses
(Reciprocals) x=0 x(1/x)=1
Ordered pair
(X,y) represents a position on the coordinate plane
Range
All the y-values in a relation
Relation
A set of ordered pairs
Simplify
To use properties and order of operations to make an expression smaller
Solution
Any number or numbers that make the original problem true
Solve
To use inverse operations to find the value of a variable
