Simplifying Algebraic Expressions: Distributive Property and Combining Like Terms

This chapter focuses on the essential algebraic skills of simplifying expressions by removing grouping symbols, applying the distributive property, and combining like terms. You'll learn how to effectively distribute factors across terms, identify and combine terms with similar variables, and streamline expressions for easier manipulation. Through guided examples and practice problems, this section aims to enhance your understanding of algebraic simplification, making it a critical foundation for solving equations and inequalities in mathematics.
