6.5 Expressions

Test Review

TermDefinition
Base Big Number, the number you are multiplying
Exponent The small number, the number of times you are multiplying (repeated multiplication)
Exponential form (write with an exponent) write using base and exponent ex. 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 5^4
Expanded form (write using multiplication) Write out the base exponent number of times. Ex. 3^5 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Standard form (solve) Calculate the answer Ex. 2^5 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 32
Order of operations The order in which all problems should be solved P (parentheses) E (exponents) MD (multiplication OR division left to right in problem) AS (addition OR subtraction left to right in problem)
Power of 0 Anything raised to the power of zero is 1. Ex. 1^0 = 1, 2^0=1, ...
Power of 1 Anything raised to the power of 1 is itself. Ex. 1^1 = 1, 2^1=2, ...
Base of 1 The base of 1 raised to any power is 1, because it is 1 multiplied by itself, which is always 1. Ex. 1^1=1, 1^2=1, ...
Distributive a(b+c)=ab+ac 2 ( 3 + 4) = 2(3) + 2(4) multiply a sum by multiplying EACH addend separately and then add the products.
Associative (a+b)+c=a+(b+c) 2 + ( 3 + 4 ) = (2 + 3 ) + 4 Grouping
Commutative a+b=b+a ab=ba Order
Identity Property of Addition a + 0 = a If you add zero to a number, the sum is the same as that number.
Identity Property of Multiplication a x 1 = a If you multiply a number by one, the product is the same as that number.
Evaluate an Expression Substitute a number for each variable in an algebraic expression and simplify (find the value) Ex. 2x if x = 3 2(3) = 6
Sum addition Ex. the sum of a number and 8 n + 8
Less than, subtracted from subtraction *order is switched* Ex. 6 less than a number n - 6
Product Multiplication Ex. The product of a number and 6 6n
Half (multiplication) x 1/2
Twice x 2
Double x 2
Triple x 3
Quotient Division Ex. The quotient of a number and 10 n/10
Half (division) divided by 2
Squared to the 2nd power
Cubed to the 3rd power
Multiplied by itself exponent
Other possible addition words more, older, together, increased, total, all together, plus, combine, in all, both
Other possible subtraction words spends, younger, take away, difference, are left, remain, change, decreased by, fewer, HOW MANY more
Other possible division words divided by, parts, split, shared, separated, cut up, HOW MANY times, per*, each*
Other possible multiplication words times, by, of, per*, each*

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
