Describing Patterns
::描述模式In algebra, an equation is a mathematical expression that contains an equals sign. An equation indicates that two expressions represent the same value, like where and are equal to each other. An inequality is a mathematical expression that contains inequality signs . Inequalities are used to tell us that an expression is either larger or smaller than another expression. For example, indicates that the value of is less than the value of Equations and inequalities can contain both variables and constants .
::在代数中, 方程式是一个数学表达式, 包含等号。 方程式表示两个表达式代表相同的值, 如 y=12x, y和 12x 等。 不平等是一个数学表达式, 包含不平等迹象。 不平等用来告诉我们一个表达式大于或小于另一个表达式。 例如, y < 12x 表示y 的值小于 12x 的值。 等式和不平等可以包含变量和常数 。Variables are usually identified by a letter and are used to represent unknown values. These quantities can change because they depend on other numbers in the problem.
::变量通常用字母识别,并用于代表未知值。这些数量可以变化,因为它们取决于问题中的其他数字。Constants are quantities that remain unchanged. Numbers like and are examples of constants, because they always represent the same value.
::常数是数量不变的。数字如 2-3,34 和 是常数的例子,因为它们总是代表相同的值。Equations and inequalities are used as a shorthand notation for situations that involve numerical data. They are very useful because most problems require several steps to arrive at a solution, and it becomes tedious to repeatedly write out the situation in words.
::对于涉及数字数据的情况,均分和不平等被用作简称,非常有用,因为大多数问题需要若干步骤才能找到解决办法,反复用文字写出有关情况是令人厌烦的。Here are some examples of equations:
::以下是一些方程式的例子:
::3x-2=5x+9=2x+5x3=15x2+1=10To write an inequality, we use the following symbols:
::为了写出不平等,我们使用以下符号:> greater than
::> 大于greater than or equal to
::大于或等于< less than
::<小于less than or equal to
::大于或等于not equal to
::不等于Here are some examples of inequalities:
::以下是一些不平等的例子:
::3x 3 < 54- x=2x2+2x-1>03x4xx2-3Arguably the most important skill in algebra is the ability to translate a word problem into an appropriate equation or inequality so you can find the solution easily. The first two steps are defining the variables and translating the word problem into a mathematical equation.
::代数中最重要的技能可以说是将单词问题转化为合适的方程或不平等,这样你就可以很容易地找到解决办法。 前两个步骤是定义变量,并将单词问题转化为数学方程。Defining the variables means that we assign letters to any unknown quantities in the problem.
::定义变量意味着我们给问题的任何未知数量分配字母。Translating means that we change the word problem into a mathematical statement containing variables and mathematical operations , generally with an equal sign or an inequality sign.
::翻译意味着我们把字的问题 变成一个数学说明, 包含变量和数学操作, 通常有一个平等的符号或不平等的符号。Defining Variables and Translating into Equations
