multi-step equationan equation that requires more than one step to solve | |
Multiplication Property of Equalityallows us to multiply both sides of an equation by the same amount: For all real numbers a, b, and c, if a = b, then ac = bc | |
Multiplication Property of Identitystates that any number times 1 equals that number: For all real numbers a, a X 1 = a | |
Multiplicative Inverse Property (FIX)states that any number multiplied by 1 over that number equals 1: For all real numbers a, (FIX) ; also called Inverse Property of Multiplication | |

natural numbersalso called counting numbers, the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, ... | |
nonlinear functiona function with a variable rate of change that graphs as a curved line | |
nonrepeating decimalsnumbers whose decimal parts continue without repeating, these are irrational numbers | |
nonterminating decimalsnumbers whose decimal parts continue (with non-zero digits) forever, these decimals can be rational (if they repeat) or irrational (if they are nonrepeating) | |
numeric constanta quantity that has a known, fixed value | |
