HI 8 ... I did look it up (in 2 locations). I only found it used in Algebra. If you feel that is the best word to use, I totally understand. But I did check before I changed it - promise!! I did look up a few other words before I revised them just to be sure.

When someone speaks out loud, certain words sound sound appropriate even if they really not grammatically correct. I have found this with students many times. Plus someone from another country may use a word differently as well. I am always correcting people (sometimes in my head, lol) about their grammar. It drives me nuts when someone types they're when they mean there - usually in a text, but sometimes in a document and spell check wouldn't catch it because it is spelled correctly - but not used correctly. Anyway, that's a whole other conversation. LOL  =)
