Go Math Voc. Set 4
Term | Definition |
---|---|
associative property | different combinations do not affect sums 1 +(2 + 3) = (1 + 2) + 3, or products 2 x (3 x 4) = (2 x 3) x 4; it does not apply to subtraction or division |
axes | the horizontal, (x), and vertical (y), lines that act as reference points when plotting points on a coordinate grid |
commutative property | order does not affect sums 2 + 3 = 3 + 2, or products 4 x 5 = 5 x 4; it does not apply to subtraction or division |
coordinate grid | a two-dimensional plane on which to plot points, lines, and curves |
distributive property | in multiplication a factor can be broken into pieces; 4 x 56 - 4 x 50 + 4 x 6 |
expanded form | the representation of a number as a sum of place values like 57 = 5 x 10 + 7 x 1 |
hundredths | second decimal place to the right |
origin | the starting point where the axes of a coordinate plane intersect; (0,0) |
tenths | first decimal place to the right |
thousandths | third decimal place to the right |
x - axis | the horizontal (left to right) line on a coordinate plane that runs through zero |
y - axis | the vertical (up and down) line on a coordinate plane that runs through zero |
expanded notation | the representation of a number as a product of the digit and its place value like 57 = 5 x 10 + 7 x 1 |
