Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Variables and Equations, 3 | Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Variables and Equations, Segment 3: River Ratios Why do rivers meander instead of traveling in a straight line? In going from point A to point B, why should a river take the circuitous route it does instead of a direct path? Furthermore, what information can the ratio of the river’s length to its straight-line distance tell us? In this segment the geological forces that account for a river’s motion are explained. In the process, the so-called Meander Ratio is explored. Students construct a mathematical model of a meandering river using the TI-Nspire. Having built the model, students then use it to generate data to find the average of many Meander Ratios. The results show that on average the Meander Ratio is equal to pi. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--"Not Equal To" | Not Equal ToTopicEquations DefinitionThe "Not Equal To" symbol (≠) is used to indicate that two values are not equal. DescriptionThe "Not Equal To" symbol is crucial in mathematics as it denotes inequality between two expressions. This symbol is used in various mathematical contexts, such as solving inequalities, comparing numbers, and expressing conditions in algebraic equations. For example, in the inequality 𝑥 ≠ 5, it means that x can be any number except 5. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Addition Property of Equality | Addition Property of EqualityTopicEquations DefinitionThe Addition Property of Equality states that if you add the same value to both sides of an equation, the equality remains true. DescriptionThe Addition Property of Equality is a fundamental principle in algebra. It asserts that for any real numbers a, b, and c, if a = b, then a + c = b + c. This property is used to solve equations and maintain balance. For example, to solve x − 3 = 7, you add 3 to both sides to get x = 10. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Algebraic Equation | Algebraic EquationTopicEquations DefinitionAn algebraic equation is a mathematical statement that shows the equality of two algebraic expressions. It's also another way of referring to a polynomial equation. DescriptionAlgebraic equations are central to algebra and involve variables, constants, and arithmetic operations. They are used to represent relationships and solve problems. For instance, the equation 2x + 3 = 7 can be solved to find x. Algebraic equations come in various forms, including linear, quadratic, and polynomial equations. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Algebraic Expression | Algebraic ExpressionTopicEquations DefinitionAn algebraic expression is a combination of variables, constants, and arithmetic operations, without an equality sign. DescriptionAlgebraic expressions are fundamental components of algebra. They represent quantities and relationships without asserting equality. Examples include 3x + 4 and 5y − 2. Unlike equations, expressions cannot be solved but can be simplified or evaluated for given variable values. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Assigning Values to Variables | Assigning Values to VariablesTopicEquations DefinitionAssigning values to variables involves giving specific values to variables in an equation or expression. DescriptionAssigning values to variables is a fundamental process in algebra. It involves substituting variables with specific numbers to evaluate expressions or solve equations. For example, in the equation y = 2x + 3 assigning x = 4 gives y = 11. |
Variable Expressions | |
Definition--Equation Concepts--Conditional Equation | Conditional EquationTopicEquations DefinitionA conditional equation is true only for specific values of the variable(s). DescriptionConditional equations are equations that hold true only under certain conditions or for specific variable values. For example, the equation x2 = 4 is true only when x = 2 or x = −2. These equations contrast with identities, which are true for all variable values. |
Applications of Equations and Inequalities | |
Definition--Equation Concepts--Constant Term | Constant TermTopicEquations DefinitionA constant term is a term in an algebraic expression that does not contain any variables. DescriptionConstant terms are fixed values in algebraic expressions and equations. They do not change because they lack variables. For example, in the expression 3x + 4 the number 4 is a constant term. Constant terms are essential in forming and solving equations. |
Variables and Unknowns | |
Definition--Equation Concepts--Division Property of Equality | Division Property of EqualityTopicEquations DefinitionThe Division Property of Equality states that if you divide both sides of an equation by the same nonzero value, the equality remains true. DescriptionThe Division Property of Equality is a key principle in algebra. It states that for any real numbers a, b, and c (where 𝑐 ≠ 0), if a = b, then a ÷ c = b ÷ c This property is used to solve equations by isolating variables. For example, to solve 3x = 12 divide both sides by 3 to get x = 4. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Equality | EqualityTopicEquations DefinitionEquality is a mathematical statement that asserts that two expressions are equal. DescriptionEquality is a foundational concept in mathematics. It indicates that two expressions have the same value, represented by the symbol "=". For example, in the equation 2 + 3 = 5, both sides are equal. Equality is used to form equations and solve problems. In real-world applications, equality is used in accounting, engineering, and data analysis to ensure balance and accuracy. Understanding equality helps students develop logical reasoning and problem-solving skills. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Equation | EquationTopicEquations DefinitionAn equation is a mathematical statement that asserts the equality of two expressions. DescriptionEquations are central to mathematics, representing relationships between quantities. They consist of two expressions separated by an equals sign. For example, 2x + 3 = 7 is an equation that can be solved to find x. Equations can be linear, quadratic, or polynomial, among others. |

Definition--Equation Concepts--Equations in One Variable | Equations in One VariableTopicEquations DefinitionEquations in one variable involve a single variable and can be solved to find its value. DescriptionEquations in one variable are fundamental in algebra. They typically take the form of ax + b = 0, where x is the variable. Solving these equations involves isolating the variable to determine its value. For example, solving 2x + 3 = 7 yields x = 2 |
