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