What is an inequality?

Back

An inequality is a mathematical statement that compares two expressions using symbols such as <, >, ≤, or ≥ to show that one expression is less than, greater than, or equal to another.

What is the Distributive Property?

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.

Simplify: (4j - 4) - (7j + 6)

What is the Order of Operations?

Back

The Order of Operations is a set of rules that determines the sequence in which calculations are performed. The order is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). Often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS.

Use the Order of Operations to solve: 3[2(5) - 6]

What is the purpose of the Distributive Property in equations?

Back

The Distributive Property is used to eliminate parentheses in equations, making it easier to simplify and solve them.

What does the term 'like terms' mean in algebra?

Back

Like terms are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. They can be combined by adding or subtracting their coefficients.

Front

What is the Multiplication Property of Equality?

Back

The Multiplication Property of Equality states that if you multiply both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number, the two sides remain equal.
