Mathematics key terms

A circle that shows an endpoint is included in a solution set.

The value after the stated change has taken place.

The velocity at the end of the time interval being considered.

A sequence with a final term and therefore a limited number of terms.

The result of subtracting one term of a sequence from the next term.

The results obtained by subtracting each term of a sequence from the following term.

A value unchanged by an iteration rule, so $x=g(x)$.

The shape and arrangement of the area occupied by an object when viewed from above.

A written arithmetic procedure in which digits are arranged according to place value.

A rule written with symbols that connects two or more quantities.

A number expressing one quantity divided by another, written in the form $\frac{a}{b}$ where $b\ne0$.

A coefficient written as a fraction, such as $\frac{3}{4}$ in $\frac{3}{4}x$.

A fraction whose numerator and denominator have no common factor greater than 1.

A number expressing one part as a share of the complete amount.

The number of times that a category or outcome occurs.

The part of a cone or pyramid left after its top has been removed by a cut parallel to the base.

One complete turn about a point, equal to $360^\circ$.

A rule that assigns an output to each permitted input; $f(x)$ denotes the output of function $f$ for input $x$.

A way of writing the output of a named function; for example, $f(3)$ is the output of function $f$ for input $3$.

Notation for the output of function $f$ when its input is $x$.

A logical argument in which each conclusion is supported by stated information or an accepted geometrical fact.

A drawing that shows the shapes, labels and relationships described in a question.

A sequence in which each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by the same number.

A chain of statements in which each step follows from given information or an established mathematical fact, establishing that a result must be true.
