Chapter 7.1 - 7.6 Flashcards
Define Commission
Commission is a percentage of total sales as determined by the RATE of commission.
Define Discount
An amount of discount is a percent off the original price, determined by the discount rate.
Define Additive Identity
The Additive Identify is 0. When zero is added to any number, it does not change the value.
Define Additive Inverse
The opposite of a number is its Additive Inverse. The additive inverse of “a” is “-a”.
Define Irrational Number
An Irrational Number is a number that cannot be written as the ratio of two integers. Its decimal form does not stop and does not repeat.
Define Multiplicative Identity
The Multiplicative Identity is 1. Whe one multiplies any number, it does not change the value.
Define Multiplicative Inverse
The reciprocal of a number is its Multiplicative Inverse. The multiplicative inverse of “a” is “1/a”.
Define Rational number
A Rational Number is a number that can be written in the form “p/q”, where “p” and “q” are integers and “q does not equal 0”. Its decimal form stops or repeats.
Define Real number
A Real Number is a number that is either rational or irrational.
Real Numbers
Are made up of Rational Numbers and Irrational Numbers. Real Numbers include on one side, Rational Numbers comprised of: Counting Numbers + Whole Numbers + Integers + Rational Numbers. On the other side, Irrational Numbers.
What is the Commutative Property of Addition?
If a,b are real numbers, then a + b = b + a.
What is the Commutative Property of Multiplication?
If a,b are real numbers, then a x b = b x a.
What is the Associative Property of Addition?
If a,b are real numbers, then (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).
What is the Associative Property of Multiplication?
If a,b are real numbers, then (a x b) x c = a x (b x c).
Example of Distributive Property, If a,b,c are real numbers, then…
- a(b + c) = ab + ac; 2. (b + c)a = ba + ca; 3. a(b-c) = ab - ac.
Example of Identity Property of Addition
For any real number a: a + 0 = a. 0 + a = a; 0 is the additive identity.
Example of Identity Property of Multiplication
For any real number a: a x 1 = a. 1 x a = a; 0 is the multiplicative identity.
Example of Inverse Property of Addition
For any real number a: a + (-a) = 0. “-a” is the Additive Inverse of a.
Example of Inverse Property of Multiplication
For any real number a: (“a does not equal 0) a x “(1/a)” = 1 “(1/a)” the multiplicative inverse of a.
Properties of Zero: Multiplication by Zero:
For any real number a: a x 0 = 0; 0 x a = 0; The product of any number and 0 equals zero.
Properties of Zero: Division “OF” Zero:
For any real number a: “0/a” = 0; Zero divided by any real number, except itself, is zero.
Properties of Zero: Division “BY” Zero:
For any real number a: “a/0” is undefined and a divided by 0 is undefined. Division by zero is undefined.
