PRESENTATION OUTLINE

EQUATION

A STATEMENT THAT THE VALUES OF TWO MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSIONS ARE EQUAL (INDICATED BY THE SIGN =).

VARIABLE

NOT CONSISTENT OR HAVING A FIXED PATTERN; LIABLE TO CHANGE.

INEQUALITY

THE RELATION BETWEEN TWO EXPRESSIONS THAT ARE NOT EQUAL, EMPLOYING A SIGN SUCH AS ≠ “NOT EQUAL TO,” > “GREATER THAN,” OR

INTERGER

1. A WHOLE NUMBER; A NUMBER THAT IS NOT A FRACTION.

ORDER PAIRS

A PAIR OF ELEMENTS A, B HAVING THE PROPERTY THAT ( A, B) = (U, V ) IF AND ONLY IF A = U, B = V.

ORGIN

1. THE POINT OR PLACE WHERE SOMETHING BEGINS, ARISES, OR IS DERIVED. "A NOVEL THEORY ABOUT THE ORIGIN OF OIL" SYNONYMS: BEGINNING, START, COMMENCEMENT, ORIGINATION, GENESIS, BIRTH, DAWNING, DAWN, EMERGENCE, CREATION, BIRTHPLACE, CRADLE; MORE A PERSON'S SOCIAL BACKGROUND OR ANCESTRY. "THEY WILL BE ASKED ABOUT THEIR ETHNIC ORIGIN" SYNONYMS: DESCENT, ANCESTRY, PARENTAGE, PEDIGREE, LINEAGE, LINE (OF DESCENT), BIRTH, EXTRACTION, FAMILY, STOCK, BLOOD, BLOODLINE, HERITAGE, DUAL HERITAGE "HER SCOTTISH ORIGIN"

ORDER OF OPERATIONS

IN MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTER PROGRAMMING, THE ORDER OF OPERATIONS (SOMETIMES CALLED OPERATOR PRECEDENCE) IS A RULE USED TO CLARIFY WHICH PROCEDURES SHOULD BE PERFORMED FIRST IN A GIVEN MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION.

RATIONAL NUMBERS

IN MATHEMATICS, A RATIONAL NUMBER IS ANY NUMBER THAT CAN BE EXPRESSED AS THE QUOTIENT OR FRACTION P/Q OF TWO INTEGERS, WITH THE DENOMINATOR Q NOT EQUAL TO ZERO. [ 1] SINCE Q MAY BE EQUAL TO 1, EVERY INTEGER IS A RATIONAL NUMBER.

SOLUTION OF EQUATION

A SOLUTION OF THE EQUATION IS AN ASSIGNMENT OF EXPRESSIONS TO THE UNKNOWNS THAT SATISFIES THE EQUATION; IN OTHER WORDS, EXPRESSIONS SUCH THAT, WHEN THEY ARE SUBSTITUTED FOR THE UNKNOWNS, THE EQUATION BECOMES AN IDENTITY.

ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS

AN ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION IS A MATHEMATICAL PHRASE THAT CAN CONTAIN ORDINARY NUMBERS, VARIABLES (LIKE X OR Y) AND OPERATORS (LIKE ADD,SUBTRACT,MULTIPLY, AND DIVIDE). HERE ARE SOME ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS: A + 1 A - B 3X X - A / B.
