For example: If 5 = 5, then 5 - 2 = 5 - 2. A mathematical sentence that compares two unequal expressions using one of the symbols , ≤, ≥, or ≠. two-step equations If you add the same number to both sides of an equation, the sides remain equal inequality A numerical factor in a term of an algebraic expression. Multiplication Property of inequality An inequality that contains two operations. Two different operations as in 3x + 4 = 8, must multiply and divide. If you multiply both sides of an equation by the same number, the sides remain equal (i.e. equality is preserved). Addition Property of equality Division Property of equality A sentence stating that two quantities are equal. solution Subtraction Property of equality A value of a variable that makes an equation true. If you divide both sides of an equation by the same nonzero number, the sides remain equal. two-step inequality equation
