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