Absolute Value
A combination of variables, numbers, and at least one operation.
Algebraic Expresion
The number that is raised to a power.
Base
The number by which a variable is multiplied. Ex: the 2 in 2x
Coefficient
This is formed when two number lines intersect at their zero points.
Coordinate Plane
a(b+c)=ab+ac
Distribution Property
The number they tells how many factors there are of the base.
Exponent
The inequality symbol >
Greater Than
A mathematical sentence that compares two unequal expressions using one of the symbols, or non equal sign
Inequality
Positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero.
Integers
The inequality symbol <
Less Than
Terms containing the same variable
Like Terms
Numbers with a value less than zero.
Negative Numbers
Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
Operations
Numbers that have the same digit but opposite values. Ex: 3 and (-3)
Opposite Numbers
This is used to name a point on the coordinates plane
Ordered Pair
The intersection of the x-axis and y-axis
Origin
Numbers with value larger than zero
Positive Numbers
Numbers expressed using a base and an exponent
Powers
