Drill 3 Evaluate each expression if a 3

Drill #3 Evaluate each expression if a = -3, b = ½, c = 1. Name ALL sets of numbers to which each number belongs:

Drill #5 Solve the following equations: Check your solutions! 1. ¾x + 5 = - ½ x + 3 2. 2( y + 1 ) = 2 – 3 ( y – 2 ) 3. -½ ( z – 2 ) = ½ (z + 4) Solve for the given variable 4. 3 x + 2 y = 7 z, for y 5. 2 ab + 3 b = a, for a

Drill #6 Solve the following equations: Check your solutions! Solve for the given variable 1. 4 x + 2 y = 7 x – y, for y 2. 2 a + 3 b = a – 4, for a 3. 3 xy + 4 x = xy + 2, for x

1 -3 Solving Equations Objective: Translate verbal expressions into algebraic expressions, and to solve equations using SGIR

Properties of Equality Reflexive Transitive Symmetric Substitution Addition Multiplication

Reflexive property of equality* Definition: For any real number a, a = a.

Symmetric Property of Equality* Definition: For all real numbers a and b, if a = b then b = a. Example: if y = 5 x + 2 then 5 x + 2 = y

Transitive Property of Equality* Definition: For all real numbers a, b, and c, if a = b, and b = c, then a = c. Example: if x = y and we know that y = 6 then we also know that x = 6.

Substitution Property of Equality* Definition: If a = b, then a may be replaced by b. Example: if x + 5 = 2 y + 1 and we know that x = 6, then we can replace x with 6. 6 + 5 = 2 y + 1

Addition and Subtraction Property of Equality* Definition: For any real numbers a, b, and , c if a = b, then a + c = b + c, and a – c = b – c. What you do to one side of an equality you must do to the other.

Multiplication and Division properties of Equality* Definition: For any real numbers a, b, and c if a = b, then a * c = b * c, and if c = 0, a / c = b / c. If 0. 1 x + 0. 25 = 1. 1 y – 1. 6 then 10 x + 25 = 110 y - 160 What are we multiplying each side by?

Solve Equations using S. G. I. R*

S. G. I. R. S. G. I. R. implify the expression. (distribute, simplify fractions and decimals) roup the variables onto one side (the left) of the equation using ADDITION and SUBTRACTION. Solate the variable. Group all non-variable terms (numbers) to the opposite side (the right side) using ADDITION and SUBTRACTION. emove the coefficient. Once the variable is isolated the last step is to remove the coefficient. DIVIDE both sides by the coefficient, or MULTIPLY both sides by the reciprocal of the coefficient.

Simplifying Decimals Steps to simplify decimals: 1. Find the smallest decimal (the decimal that goes out the most places). 2. Multiply both side by 10 times 10 (the number of decimal places of the smallest decimal ) (WHY 10? ) 1. 1 x + 2. 3 = 5. 22

Simplifying Fractions Steps to simplify fractions: 1. Find the least common multiple of all the denominators on both sides of the equation 2. Multiply both sides of the equation (every term) by the LCM

Why verbal expressions? Why is it important to know how to translate math english and english math

Verbal Expressions and their Operations Verbal Expression Operation And, plus, sum, increased by, more than Addition Minus, difference, decreased by, less than Subtraction times, product, of (as in ½ of a number) Multiplication Divided by, quotient Division

Verbal to Algebraic Expression: Examples #1. 2 more than 4 times the cube of a number. #2. The quotient of 5 less than a number and 12. #3. The cube of a number increase by 4 times the same number #4. three time the difference of a number and 8

Classwork Copy the following statements, then write an algebraic expression to represent them: #1. The difference between the product of four and a number and 6. #2. The product of a square of a number and 8. #3. Fifteen less than the cube of the sum number and 2. #4. Five more than the quotient of the difference of a number and 4, and 6.
