Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions

What definition best defines an expression?

• Can have numbers (coefficients & constants)

• Can have operators ((+,-, x, ÷)

• Can have numbers (coefficients & constants), variables, operators (+,-, x, ÷), and does not have an equal sign.

• Can have numbers (coefficients & constants), variables, operators (+,-, x, ÷), and does have an equal sign.

Which definition best defines an equation?

• Includes an equal sign (=).

• Does not include an equal sign (=)

• Can have two terms being compared to one another; it can determine whether two terms are equivalent.

• Can have two expressions being compared to one another; it can determine whether two expressions are equivalent; it includes the equal sign (=).

What is the main difference between expressions and equations?

• Equations use an equal sign (=) to separate and determine whether two expressions are equivalent and expressions do not.

• Equations have coefficients and variables and expressions do not.

• Equations can be simplified and expressions can not.

• Expressions only contain numbers and operators (+,-,x,÷) and equations do not.

What is the commutative property?

• "Changing the order does not change the result" (e.g. a + b = b +a)

• "PEMDAS"

• "Multiplying a number by a group of numbers added together" (e.g. a(b+c) = ab + ac)
