Relatively Prime
*Test [If they have no shared factors (besides 1)]
Two numbers; If they have no shared factors besides 1. To determine if two numbers are relatively prime, find the prime factors of each and compare.
Ex: If they have no common factors they are relatively prime. The # 34 and 15 are relatively prime because 34= 2x17 and 15= 5x3, so there a no factors in common.
Fraction Decomposition
Which means to break down a faction. (In fraction composition/decomposition, the denominator is the same. The numerators will add up(composition) or break apart (decomposition) to the same total.)
Prime Factorization
For each unique factor, identify which number has the most occurrence’s. Ignore the other instances of that factor. Multiply the remaining values together to calculate the least common multiple.
Ex: What is the least common multiple of 6&8? Since 6&8 are small values, use method 1:
Multiples of 6: 6 12 18 24 30 36
Multiples of 8: 8 16 24 32 40 48
The first multiple that the two numbers have in common is 24. The LCM 6&8 is 24/.
(LCM) Least Common Multiple
Smallest # that 2 values will divide into evenly
(GCF) Greatest Common Factor
Is the largest factor shared by two or more numbers. Sometimes called the greatest common divisor (GCD).
-To find the greatest common factor , find the prime factorization of the numbers in question and circle all factors that are shared. If more than one factor is shared, multiply the factors together.
-Ex: What is the greatest common factor of 12 and 15?
12: 2x2x3
15: 3x5
-The only value is common for the two lists is 3. The greatest common factor is 3.
Prime Factors
Factor that is also prime. Ex: 2 x 3=6

Composite #
Natural # that do have # and divide evenly into them. Ex: 1,2,4
Prime Numbers
greater than 1 that one divisible only by 1 and themselves. Ex: 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,23,29,31
a natural number greater than 1 that has exactly two distinct positive divisors: 1 and itself. They cannot be divided evenly by any other numbers. Ex: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13. The number 1 is not prime, and 2 is the only even prime number.
Causation
Means that a change in the independent variable causes a change in the dependent variable

Use line segments to connect data points
Double Bargraph
Displays 2 bars next to each other and is used to compare 2 groups of data within each category

expressed as the product of a base-10 # and 1 and 10
Y-Intercept
Is the place where the graph crosses the y-axis. Parabolas will always have 1 y-intercept. This parabola’s y-intercept is at (0,-6). (y=0)

When a digit is in a specific position, it’s value is equal to the product of that digit and the power of 10 that is assigned to its position.
Called the decimal system, is the number system that uses ten digits (0-9) to represent numbers. Each digit has a value determined by it’s place value: a digit in one place is worth 10 times the value of a digit in the place to it’s right. Numbers are organized in powers of 10, such as ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands.
-Each place location for a # has a value that is a power of 10.
Place value
To show the value of each digit in the number based on its location, or place, we can deconstruct, larger # to see the value of each digit
Expanded Form
Uses place value to show the value of each digit, rather than writing the number as a whole. (Find ex)
Expanded Notation
Break apart each digit in the number and show the digits true value. Ex: (8,436) -> 8,000 + 400 + 30 + 6
Irrational numbers
Real numbers that cannot be represented exactly
Magnitude
Size of a number. It is important to be able to determine how numbers are related to each other
Absolute Value
Greater of negative number, the smaller it is. Ex: 123> 122 but -123< -122
