Across
- 3. The horizontal line running through the origin on a coordinate plane.
- 6. deviation The square root of the variance.
- 8. An expression that is used to compute a value.
- 10. The study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating those symbols.
- 11. 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.
- 13. a quantity representing the power to which a given number or expression is to be raised, usually expressed as a raised symbol beside the number or expression.
- 15. A point on a 2-dimensional plane is described by a pair (x,y). The coordinate x is given by the labels below the grid, and the coordinate y is given by the labels to the left of the grid.
Down
- 1. The vertical line running through the origin on a coordinate plane.
- 2. An expression or equation in which the highest power of a variable has exponent 2.
- 4. A number that is raised to a power.
- 5. root A square root of a is a number b whose square is a. That is, b2=a. If b is a square root of a, then so is −b. If a≥0, “the” square root of a, written √a, is the square root of a that is positive or zero.
- 7. The distance between two quantities, or the answer to a subtraction problem.
- 9. value The distance a number is from 0.
- 12. A single fixed number (unlike a variable, whose value can vary).
- 14. Element in a sum, difference, or sequence.
