Algebra Cross Word Puzzle

3. of symmetry: A line that you can flip (or reflect) a graph across that results in the same graph.
5. like terms: Using the distributive law to add any two multiples of an expression such as x. For example, you can simplify 4x+5x into 9x.
6. value: The distance a number is from 0.
8. law of multiplication: For any three numbers a, b, and c, it is always true that (a(b))(c)=a(b(c)).
9. plot: A box with “whiskers” showing the median, quartiles, and extremes (least and greatest values) of a collection of data values.
11. A number that is raised to a power.
12. A constant that a variable or expression is multiplied by.

1. denominators: Multiplying both sides of an equation by some nonzero number that turns all the fractions in the equation into integers.
2. function: ceiling(x) is the closest integer which is greater than or equal to x.
3. sequence: A sequence of numbers in which each number can be computed by adding the same amount to the previous number.
4. fit line: When the points on a grid are not all on a straight line, but seem to have a somewhat linear pattern, you can find a line that is the “best fit” (closest) to the points.
6. The study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating those symbols.
7. law of addition: For any three numbers a, b, and c, it is always true that (a+b)+c=a+(b+c).
10. grid: A grid used to illustrate values of algebraic expressions.
11. even: Have a profit of zero (that is, make exactly as much money as you spend).
12. ratio: In a geometric sequence, the amount that each number can be multiplied by to get the next number.
13. difference: In an arithmetic sequence, the amount that can be added to each number to get the next one.
