What is the distributive property in algebra?

Back

The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. It allows you to multiply a single term by two or more terms inside a set of parentheses.

Solve the expression: 2(8 + 9b)

Back

16 + 18b

Front

What does it mean if an equation has infinite solutions?

Back

An equation has infinite solutions when any value of the variable satisfies the equation, often occurring when both sides of the equation are equivalent.

Front

Solve the equation: 4(3x + 5) = 5(x + 4) + 7x

Back

infinite solution

Front

What is the solution to the equation 15 - x = 18?

Back

-3

Front

What does it mean if an equation has no solution?

Back

An equation has no solution when there is no value of the variable that can satisfy the equation, often resulting in a contradiction.

Front

Solve for x: x - 5 = 5 - x

Back

5

Front

What is the solution to the inequality y - 4 > 12?

Back

y > 16

Front

What is an inequality in mathematics?

Back

An inequality is a mathematical statement that compares two expressions, showing that one is greater than, less than, or not equal to the other.

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 2x + 3 = 11?

Back

Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.
