What is the distributive property of multiplication over addition?
Click to flip
The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac.
Click to flip
How can you solve an equation with variables on both sides, like 2x + 5 = x + 9?
Click to flip
First, subtract x from both sides to get x + 5 = 9. Then subtract 5 from both sides to get x = 4.
Click to flip
What does it mean for two expressions to be equivalent?
Click to flip
Two expressions are equivalent if they have the same value for all variable assignments.
Click to flip
How do you simplify an expression like 3(x + 4) - 2x?
Click to flip
First, use the distributive property: 3x + 12 - 2x. Then combine like terms: x + 12.
Click to flip
What is the process of finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers?
Click to flip
List the factors of each number, then find the largest factor that they have in common.
Click to flip
How do you factor the expression x^2 + 5x + 6?
Click to flip
Find two numbers that multiply to 6 and add to 5. These are 2 and 3. So, x^2 + 5x + 6 factors to (x + 2)(x + 3).
Click to flip
How do you solve an equation like 4(x - 2) = 16?
Click to flip
Divide both sides by 4 to get x - 2 = 4. Then add 2 to both sides to get x = 6.
Click to flip
What is a linear equation?
Click to flip
A linear equation is an equation that makes a straight line when graphed, typically in the form y = mx + b.
Click to flip
How do you solve inequalities, such as 3x + 2 < 11?
Click to flip
Subtract 2 from both sides to get 3x < 9, then divide by 3 to find x < 3.
Click to flip
What is the commutative property of addition?
Click to flip
The commutative property of addition states that the order of adding numbers does not change the sum, i.e., a + b = b + a.
Click to flip
How can you express the growth of a pattern using algebra?
Click to flip
Identify the relationship between variables and use an algebraic expression or equation to describe the pattern.
Click to flip
What is a coefficient in an algebraic expression?
Click to flip
A coefficient is a number that is multiplied by a variable in an algebraic expression, e.g., 3 in 3x.
Click to flip
What does it mean for an equation to be 'solvable'?
Click to flip
An equation is 'solvable' if it has a solution, meaning there is a value or values that satisfy the equation.
Click to flip
How do you graph a simple linear equation like y = 2x + 3?
Click to flip
Start by finding the y-intercept (0,3) and then use the slope (2, or rise over run) to plot the next point and draw the line.
Click to flip
What is an algebraic expression?
Click to flip
An algebraic expression is a combination of variables, numbers, and at least one operation (e.g., 3x + 2).
