  2. Algebraic Expressions An algebraic expression is a collection of real numbers, variables, grouping symbols and operation symbols. Here are some examples of algebraic expressions.

  3. Consider the example: The terms of the expression are separated by addition. There are 3 terms in this example and they are . The coefficientof a variable term is the real number factor. The first term has coefficient of 5. The second term has an unwritten coefficient of 1. The last term , -7, is called a constant since there is no variable in the term.

  4. Let’s begin with a review of two important skills for simplifying expression, using the Distributive Property and combining like terms. Then we will use both skills in the same simplifying problem.

  5. Distributive Property a ( b + c ) = ba + ca To simplify some expressions we may need to use the Distributive Property Do you remember it? Distributive Property

  6. Examples Example 1: 6(x + 2) Distribute the 6. 6 (x + 2) = x(6) + 2(6) = 6x + 12 Example 2: -4(x – 3) Distribute the –4. -4 (x – 3) = x(-4) –3(-4) = -4x + 12

  7. Practice Problem Try the Distributive Property on -7 ( x – 2 ) . Be sure to multiply each term by a –7. -7 ( x – 2 ) = x(-7) – 2(-7) = -7x + 14 Notice when a negative is distributed all the signs of the terms in the ( )’s change.

  8. Example 3: (x – 2) = 1( x – 2 ) = x(1) – 2(1) = x - 2 Notice multiplying by a 1 does nothing to the expression in the ( )’s. Example 4: -(4x – 3) = -1(4x – 3) = 4x(-1) – 3(-1) = -4x + 3 Notice that multiplying by a –1 changes the signs of each term in the ( )’s. Examples with 1 and –1.

  9. Like Terms Like terms are terms with the same variables raised to the same power. Hint: The idea is that the variable part of the terms must be identical for them to be like terms.

  10. Like Terms 5x , -14x -6.7xy , 02xy The variable factors are identical. Unlike Terms 5x , 8y The variable factors are not identical. Examples

  11. Combining Like Terms Recall the Distributive Property a (b + c) = b(a) +c(a) To see how like terms are combined use the Distributive Property in reverse. 5x + 7x = x (5 + 7) = x (12) = 12x

  12. Example All that work is not necessary every time. Simply identify the like terms and add their coefficients. 4x + 7y – x + 5y = 4x – x + 7y +5y = 3x + 12y

  13. Collecting Like Terms Example

  14. Both Skills This example requires both the Distributive Property and combining like terms. 5(x – 2) –3(2x – 7) Distribute the 5 and the –3. x(5) - 2(5) + 2x(-3) - 7(-3) 5x – 10 – 6x + 21 Combine like terms. - x+11

  20. Evaluating Expressions Remember to use correct order of operations. Evaluate the expression 2x – 3xy +4y when x = 3 and y = -5. To find the numerical value of the expression, simply replace the variables in the expression with the appropriate number.

  21. Example Evaluate 2x–3xy +4y when x = 3 and y = -5. Substitute in the numbers. 2(3) – 3(3)(-5) + 4(-5) Use correct order of operations. 6 + 45 – 20 51 – 20 31

  26. Incorrect Correct Common Mistakes

  27. Your Turn • Find the product • (-8)(3) • (20)(-65) • (-15) • Simplify the variable expression • (-3)(-y) • 5(-a)(-a)(-a)

  28. Your Turn • Evaluate the expression: • -8x when x = 6 • 3x2 when x = -2 • -4(|y – 12|) when y = 5 • -2x2 + 3x – 7 when x = 4 • 9r3 – (- 2r) when r = 2

  29. -24 -1300 -9 3y -5a3 -48 12 -28 -27 76 Your Turn Solutions

  30. Find the product. a. (9)(–3) b. c. (–3)3 d. -27 (–4)(–6) 24 (–3)(–3)(–3) 1(–3)(–5) (9)(–3) (–3)(–5) –27 15

  31. Find the product. a. (–n)(–n) b. (–4)(–x)(–x)(x) c. –(b)3 d. (–y)4 Two negative signs: n2 Three negative signs: –4x3 –(b)(b)(b) = –b3 One negative sign: Four negative signs: (–y)(–y)(–y)(–y)= y4 SUMMARY: An even number of negative signs results in a positive product, and an odd number of negative signs results in a negative product.

  32. Extra Example 3 Evaluate the expression when x = –7. a. 2(–x)(–x) 2(–x)(–x) 2x2 OR simplify first: 2(-7)2 2(49) 98

  33. Extra Example 3 (cont.) Evaluate the expression when x = –7. b. OR use the associative property:

  34. Checkpoint Find the product. 1. (–2)(4.5)(–10) 2. (–4)(–x)2 3. Evaluate the expression when x = –3: (–1• x)(x) 90 –4x2 –9

  35. Properties of Real Numbers Commutative Associative Distributive Identity + × Inverse + ×

  36. Commutative Properties • Changing the order of the numbers in addition or multiplication will not change the result. • Commutative Property of Addition states: 2 + 3 = 3 + 2 or a + b = b + a. • Commutative Property of Multiplication states: 4 • 5 = 5 • 4 or ab = ba.

  37. Associative Properties • Changing the grouping of the numbers in addition or multiplication will not change the result. • Associative Property of Addition states: 3 + (4 + 5)= (3 + 4)+ 5 or a + (b + c)= (a + b)+ c • Associative Property of Multiplication states: (2 • 3) • 4 = 2 • (3 • 4) or (ab)c = a(bc)

  38. Distributive Property • Multiplication distributes over addition.

  39. Additive Identity Property • There exists a unique number 0 such that zero preserves identities under addition. a + 0 = a and 0 + a = a • In other words adding zero to a number does not change its value.

  40. Multiplicative Identity Property • There exists a unique number 1 such that the number 1 preserves identities under multiplication. a∙ 1 = a and 1 ∙a = a • In other words multiplying a number by 1 does not change the value of the number.

  41. Additive Inverse Property • For each real number a there exists a unique real number –a such that their sum is zero. a + (-a) = 0 • In other words opposites add to zero.

  42. Multiplicative Inverse Property • For each real number a there exists a unique real number such that their product is 1.

  43. Let’s play “Name that property!”

  44. State the property or properties that justify the following. 3 + 2 = 2 + 3 Commutative Property

  45. State the property or properties that justify the following. 10(1/10) = 1 Multiplicative Inverse Property

  46. State the property or properties that justify the following. 3(x – 10) = 3x – 30 Distributive Property

  47. State the property or properties that justify the following. 3 + (4 + 5) = (3 + 4) + 5 Associative Property

  48. State the property or properties that justify the following. (5 + 2) + 9 = (2 + 5) + 9 Commutative Property
