Study Notes
Properties of Addition
- Identity Property of Addition: Adding zero to any number results in the original number. Example: x + 0 = x.
- Associative Property of Addition: The grouping of numbers does not change the sum. Example: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).
- Commutative Property of Addition: The order of addition does not affect the sum. Example: a + b = b + a.
- Additive Inverse: Every number has an opposite such that their sum equals zero. Example: a + (-a) = 0.
- Addition Property of Zero: Adding zero to any number leaves it unchanged. Example: a + 0 = a.
- Property of Equality for Addition: Adding the same number to both sides of an equation keeps it true. Example: If a = b, then a + c = b + c.
Properties of Multiplication
- Identity Property of Multiplication: Multiplying any number by one results in the original number. Example: a x 1 = a.
- Multiplicative Inverse: A number multiplied by its reciprocal equals one. Example: a x (1/a) = 1.
- Commutative Property of Multiplication: The order of multiplication does not affect the product. Example: a x b = b x a.
- Associative Property of Multiplication: The grouping of numbers does not change the product. Example: (a x b) x c = a x (b x c).
- Multiplication Property of Zero: Any number multiplied by zero equals zero. Example: a x 0 = 0.
- Property of Equality for Multiplication: Multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number keeps it true. Example: If a = b, then a x c = b x c.
Equality Properties
- Property of Equality: Both sides of an equation must be equal for it to be true. The equals sign acts as a balancing scale. Example: a = a.
- Symmetric Property of Equality: If one value equals another, then the reverse is also true. Example: If a = b, then b = a.
- Reflexive Property of Equality: Every number is equal to itself. Example: a = a.
Distributive Property
- Distributive Property: The product of a number and a sum equals the sum of the products of that number and each addend. Example: a(b + c) = a x b + a x c.
