  2. Number sentence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_sentence

    A valid number sentence that is true: 83 + 19 = 102. A valid number sentence that is false: 1 + 1 = 3. A valid number sentence using a 'less than' symbol: 3 + 6 < 10. A valid number sentence using a 'more than' symbol: 3 + 9 > 11. An example from a lesson plan: [6] Some students will use a direct computational approach.

  3. Sentence (mathematical logic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_(mathematical_logic)

    A sentence can be viewed as expressing a proposition, something that must be true or false. The restriction of having no free variables is needed to make sure that sentences can have concrete, fixed truth values : as the free variables of a (general) formula can range over several values, the truth value of such a formula may vary.

  4. Vinculum (symbol) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinculum_(symbol)

    A vinculum can indicate a line segment where A and B are the endpoints: ¯. A vinculum can indicate the repetend of a repeating decimal value: 1 ⁄ 7 = 0. 142857 = 0.1428571428571428571... A vinculum can indicate the complex conjugate of a complex number: + ¯ =

  5. Number line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_line

    The order of the natural numbers shown on the number line. A number line is a graphical representation of a straight line that serves as spatial representation of numbers, usually graduated like a ruler with a particular origin point representing the number zero and evenly spaced marks in either direction representing integers, imagined to extend infinitely.

  6. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    A line is expressed as the intersection of two planes, that is as the solution set of a single linear equation with values in or as the solution set of two linear equations with values in . A conic section is the intersection of a cone with equation x 2 + y 2 = z 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}=z^{2}} and a plane.

  7. Variable (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_(mathematics)

    This equation would generally be interpreted to have four variables, and one constant. The constant is k B}, the Boltzmann constant. One of the variables, N, the number of particles, is a positive integer (and therefore a discrete variable), while the other three, P, V and T, for pressure, volume and temperature, are continuous variables.

  8. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expression_(mathematics)

    In the equation 7x − 5 = 2, the sides of the equation are expressions. In mathematics, an expression is a written arrangement of symbols following the context-dependent, syntactic conventions of mathematical notation. Symbols can denote numbers, variables, operations, and functions. [1]

  9. Mathematical notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_notation

    So, + and are two different expressions that represent the same number. This is the meaning of the equality 3 + 2 = 5. {\displaystyle 3+2=5.} A more complicated example is given by the expression ∫ a b x d x {\textstyle \int _{a}^{b}xdx} that can be evaluated to b 2 2 − a 2 2 . {\textstyle {\frac {b^{2}}{2}}-{\frac {a^{2}}{2}}.}
