A value on which mathematical operations take place in an expression. Also, a number in a sequence or series.
term
A term with a fixed value in an expression or equation. A constant is not affected by any changes in the variable.
constant
A letter or number representing a numerical quantity that multiplies a term.
Coefficient
A symbol for a value that is unknown. It is usually represented with a letter such as x or y.
Variable
A symbol written above and to the right of a mathematical expression to indicate how many times the mathematical expression (base) should be multiplied by itself.
Exponent
Mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing numbers, variables, or both. These terms are connected by an operation such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.
Expression
An equation whose graph is a line.
Linear Equation
Operations that undo each other, such as addition and subtraction or multiplication and division.
Inverse Operations
A mathematical statement showing two expressions have the same value.
Equation
Expressions that contain the same variables to the same power
Like terms
a property indicating a special way in which multiplication is applied to addition of two or more numbers in which each term inside a set of parentheses can be multiplied by a factor outside the parentheses, such as a(b + c) = ab + ac
Distributive Property
Only one value for the variable would make the equation true. When solving the equation, you are left with a variable equal to a constant.
One solution
No value for the variable would make the equation. When solving the equation, you are left with unequal constants.
No Solution (Null Set)
Any value for the variable would make the equation true. When solving the equation, both sides are equal.
infinitely many solutions
What is put into a function, also called x-value, domain, and independent variable
Input
What comes out of a function, also called y-value, range, and dependent variable
Output
