Name ________________________________________ Unit 3: Expressions Study Guide Answer Key Vocabulary: 1. _Term______: A number, variable, product, or quotient in an expression. A term is not a sum or difference. 2. __Numerical Expression_: A mathematical statement including numbers and operations. 3. __Algebraic Expression_: A group of numbers, symbols, and variables that express an operation or a series of operations. 4. _Coefficient_: A numerical factor in a term of an algebraic expression. 5__distributive Property_: a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c) and a × (b – c) = (a × b) – (a × c), where a, b, and c stand for any real numbers. 6. _Exponent_: The number that tells how many equal factors there are. 7. __Expression: A variable or combination of variables, numbers, and symbols that represents a mathematical relationship. 8. _Variable_: A quantity that changes or can have different values. A symbol, usually a letter, that can stand for a variable quantity. 9. _Constant__: A number with a value that is always the same. 10. _Order of Operations_: Rules describing what sequence to use in evaluating expressions. (1) Evaluate within grouping symbols. (2) Do powers or roots. (3) Multiply or divide left to right. (4) Add or subtract left to right. 11._Like Terms_: Terms whose variables (and their exponents such as the 2 in x2) are the same. 12. __Communitive Property of Addition_: The sum stays the same when the order of the addends is changed. a + b = b + a, where a and b are any real numbers. 13. Communtiative Property of Multiplication_: The product stays the same when the order of the factors is changed. a x b = b x a, where a and b are any real numbers. 14. _Associative property of addition__: The sum stays the same when the grouping of addends is changed. (a + b) + c = a + (b + c), where a, b, and c stand for any real numbers. 15. _Associative property of multiplication_: The product stays the same when the grouping of factors is changed. (a x b) x c = a x (b x c), where a, b, and c stand for any real numbers. 16. _Evaluate_: To find the value of a mathematical expression. 17. _Substitution_: The replacement of the letters in an algebraic expression with known values.
