1.
Refer to page 19 of the study guide:
2.1.2 Multiplication and division
Multiplication
When two numbers are multiplied, the answer is called the product of the two
numbers. The numbers we multiply are called factors.
2. Refer to page 14 of the study guide:
1.3 Variables
A variable is a symbol for a number we do not know. It can be seen as a place
holder for an unknown number.
3. Refer to page 12 of the study guide:
All these points on the number line (that is, the solid line) represent the set of
real numbers. Note that integers are real numbers. They are special real
numbers.
