_____ Absolute Value _____ Base _____ Entry _____ Equation _____ Evaluate _____ Event _____ Experimental Probability _____ Exponent _____ Integers _____ Irrational Numbers _____ Matrix _____ Mean _____ Median _____ Mode _____ Opposite _____ Order of Operations _____ Rational Numbers _____ Real Numbers _____ Reciprocal _____ Term _____ Variable _____ Variable Expression
1. Equation – Shows that two expressions are equal. 2. Term – A number, variable or product of a number and variable. 3. Variable – A letter used to stand for one or more numbers. 4. Variable Expression – A mathematical phrase that contains at least one variable. 5. Base – x n . x represents this. 6. Mode – The number that occurs most frequently in a set of data. 7. Evaluate – Substitute a number for a variable and solve. 8. Experimental Probability – The ratio of the number of times an event actually happened to the number of times the experiment was done. 9. Exponent - x n . n represents this. 10. Order of Operations – The order in which you appropriate evaluate math problems. 11. Absolute Value – The distance a number is from 0. 12. Integers – Whole numbers and their opposites. 13. Mean – The sum of the data divided by the total number of data items. 14. Entry – Each item in a matrix. 15. Opposite – Numbers that are the same distance from 0 on the number line. 16. Rational Numbers – A number that can be written as the ratio of two numbers. In decimal form, it is either terminating or repeating. 17. Real Numbers – The set of numbers made up of rational and irrational numbers. 18. Reciprocal – Multiplicative inverse. 19. Event – Any group of outcomes. 20. Matrix – Rectangular arrangement of numbers. 21. Median – Middle value in an ordered set of numbers. 22. Irrational Numbers – A number that cannot be written as a ratio of two integers. As a decimal it is non-terminating and non-repeating.
