| A | B |
| Absolute Value | -the distance an number is from zero on the number line; it is written using the symbol l l |
| Coefficient | a number multiplied times a variable |
| Counting Numbers | real numbers that are positive and whole but NOT including zero |
| Evaluate | to find the value of an expression by replacing variables with numbers |
| Numeric Expression | a number sentence without an equal sign |
| Variable Expression | A number sentence that contains one or more variables |
| Function | a relationship between two variables |
| Inequality | not equal in value; a comparison of 2 expressions using >, < |
| Integer | A positive number, a negative number, or zero (whole numbers and their opposites) but NOT a fraction, decimal, or percent |
| Inverse Operation | used to solve equations, applying to opposite operationg in reverse order of operations to isolate (or solve for) the variable |
| Irrational Numbers | A number that does not have a finite value |
| Rational Numbers | A number that has a finite value; includes positive, negatives, zero, whole numbers, fractions, and decimals |
| Real Numbers | All numbers on the number line. This includes rational and irrational numbers |
| Sequence | Numbers in a specific order arranged according to a rule |
| Simplify | Solve or work out an order of operations problem; to describe an expression as percisely as possible |
| Solution | Any number that makes and equation true |
| Solve | to replace the variable with a number that makes the equation true |
| Term | A numbers, a variable or a product of numbers and variables; the numbers in a sequence |
| Variable | a symbol, usually a letter, that stands for an unknown numbers |
| Whole Number | A real number that is positive including zero but not including fractions or decimals |
| Zero Pairs | describes positives and negative chips "pairing up"; positives and negatives cancel each other out; so the value of a zero pair is zero |
