I
Iden tity (p. 104) An equation that is true for every value.
Spanish
Id en tid ad (p. 104)
todos los valores.
Example 5 - 14x = 5^1 - is an
identity because it is true for any
value of x.
Una ecuacion que es verdadera para
Inconsistent system (p. 365) A system of equations that
has no solution.
Sistema incom patible (p. 365) Un sistema incompatible
es un sistema de ecuaciones para el cual no hay solution.
fy = 2x+ 3
Example j ^ 2x~ + y - 1 is a system ° f
parallel lines, so it has no solution.
It is an inconsistent system.
Independ ent events (p. 777) When the outcome of one
event does not affect the probability of a second event, the
two events are independent.
Sucesos independ ientes (p. 777) Cuando el resultado de
un suceso no altera la probabilidad de otro, los dos sucesos
son independientes.
Example The results of two rolls of a
number cube are independent.
Getting a 5 on the first roll does
not change the probability of
getting a 5 on the second roll.
Independ ent system (p. 365) A system of linear
equations that has a unique solution.
Sistema independiente (p. 365) Un sistema de ecuaciones
lineales que tenga una sola solution es un sistema independiente.
fx + 2y= -7 ,
Example 3 y-o has the unique
solution (-3, -2). It is an
independent system.
Independ ent variable (p. 240) A variable that provides
the input values of a function.
Variable independiente (p. 240) Variable de la que
dependen los valores de entrada de una funcion.
Example In the equation y = 3x, x is the
independent variable.
Index (p. 448) With a radical sign, the index indicates the
degree of the root.
Example index 2
VT6
[ndice (p. 4 4 8 ) Con un signo de radical, el tndice indica el
grado de la rafz.
index 3 index 4
^16
In d u ctive reasoning (p. 63)
observed patterns.
Making conclusions based on Razonamiento inductivo (p. 63) Sacar conclusiones a
partir de patrones observados.
Ineq u ality (p. 19) A mathematical sentence that compares
the values of two expressions using an inequality symbol.
Example 3 < 7
Desigualdad (p. 19) Expresion matematica que compara el
valor de dos expresiones con el slmbolo de desigualdad.
