Topic

Equations

Description

The Not Equal To Sign (≠) indicates two expressions are not equal, forming an inequation. For example, 2 + 1 ≠ 4 and x + 3 ≠ x are inequations. This term builds on equality concepts by introducing inequalities, critical for exploring a broader range of mathematical statements.

Topic

Equations

Description

An Equation is a mathematical statement that says two expressions are equal to each other. Equations can be true or false, as shown in examples like 1 + 1 = 2 (true) and 1 + 2 = 4 (false). This term introduces the concept of equality and sets the foundation for understanding other types of equations.

Topic

Equations

Description

An Equation in One Variable has an unknown represented by a single variable. Examples include 2 + 3x = 5 and (x + 2)^2 = 25. This term focuses on single-variable equations, forming a basis for solving and understanding algebraic structures.

Topic

Equations

Description

Equations in Two Variables. A two-variable equation shows a relationship between two variables. Examples include y = 3x + 5, x2 + y2 = 25, and xy = 5, highlighting equations that can be graphed in a coordinate system. This builds on the idea of variables in equations and introduces the concept of relationships between variables, applicable in graphing and real-world modeling.

Topic

Equations

Description

Equivalent Equations result from changing an equation while maintaining equality, often by performing the same operation on both sides. For example, x - 3 = 5 becomes x = 8 after adding 3 to both sides. This term demonstrates how equations can be manipulated without altering their solution, a key concept in solving equations.

Topic

Equations

Description

A False Equation is mathematically inaccurate. For example, 2 + 1 = 4 is false, and x + 3 = x has no solution, as no value of x satisfies the equation. This term contrasts true equations and emphasizes the need to verify solutions, highlighting logical consistency in mathematics.

Topic

Equations

Description

An Identity Equation is always true for all variable values. Examples include x = x and (x + 1)2 = x2 + 2x + 1. Identity equations often use the symbol ≡ to indicate their universal truth. This term introduces a special class of equations, linking algebraic manipulation and properties of equivalence.

Topic

Equations

Description

An Inequation is a mathematical statement that shows two expressions are not equal, as in 2 + 1 ≠ 4 or x + 3 ≥ 0, which includes inequalities. This term broadens the discussion to include inequalities, expanding the types of relationships between expressions.

Topic

Equations

Description

Isolating the Variable refers to the process of solving an equation by focusing on and isolating the variable of interest. For example, x + 3 = 5 becomes x = 2 by subtracting 3 from both sides. This term highlights a key step in solving equations, emphasizing strategies for simplifying equations to find solutions.

Topic

Equations

Description

The Left Side of the Equation is the expression on the left of the equals sign. For example, in 2x + 3 = x - 5, the left side is 2x + 3. This term provides clarity in identifying components of equations, aiding in understanding structure and solving strategies.

Topic

Description

A Linear Equation is an equation where variables have an exponent of 1. Examples include x + 2 = 7, 2x + 3y = 4, and y = -2x + 10. Graphs of two-variable linear equations are straight lines. This term introduces a fundamental class of equations with specific properties, crucial for algebra and graphing.

Topic

Equations

Description

The Addition Property of Equality allows the addition of the same quantity to each side of an equation while maintaining equality. For example, if a = b, then a + c = b + c. This concept ensures equations can be manipulated while preserving their equality, demonstrated by solving x - 2 = 3 as x = 5 after adding 2 to both sides. This term introduces the basic manipulation of equations, forming the foundation for solving linear equations and maintaining equality.
