Unit 1: Lesson 1- 5

Front

What is the Commutative Property of Addition?

Back

The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum. For example, a + b = b + a.

Front

Provide an example of an irrational number.

Back

An example of an irrational number is 1/3 ⋅ √3.

Front

Simplify the expression: 4x - 2x + 7 - 3.

Back

The simplified form is 2x + 4.

Front

What is a constant term in a polynomial?

Back

A constant term is a term in a polynomial that does not contain any variables. For example, in the polynomial 4d + 6 + 3d², the constant term is 6.

Front

What is the leading coefficient of a polynomial?

Back

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the term with the highest degree in a polynomial. For example, in 4x³ + 2x² + 3, the leading coefficient is 4.

Front

What is the degree of a polynomial?

Back

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the polynomial. For example, the degree of 4x³ + 2x² + 3 is 3.

Front

What does it mean for a number to be rational?

Back

A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero.

Front

What is the difference between a polynomial and a monomial?

Back

A polynomial is a sum of two or more monomials. A monomial is a single term that can be a constant, a variable, or a product of constants and variables.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a rectangle?

Back

The area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula: Area = length × width.

Front

What is the distributive property?

Back

The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac, meaning you can distribute a factor across a sum.
