Memory Math Vocab 1Versión en línea Matching Math equations and inequality terminologies with definitions. por Becky Andrews If you multiply both sides of an equation by the same number, the sides remain equal (i.e. equality is preserved). two-step inequality A sentence stating that two quantities are equal. If you add the same number to both sides of an equation, the sides remain equal Multiplication Property of inequality inequality coefficient Division Property of equality An inequality that contains two operations. If you divide both sides of an equation by the same nonzero number, the sides remain equal. Two different operations as in 3x + 4 = 8, must multiply and divide. Subtraction Property of equality A numerical factor in a term of an algebraic expression. Addition Property of equality A mathematical sentence that compares two unequal expressions using one of the symbols , ≤, ≥, or ≠. When both sides of an equation have the same number subtracted from them, the remaining expressions are still equal. For example: If 5 = 5, then 5 - 2 = 5 - 2. equation A value of a variable that makes an equation true. solution two-step equations
