IDing Parts of an Algebraic Expression
7a 4a 3b 6+ + -
Any thing separated by addition or subtraction is a TERM.
7a 4a 3b 6+ + -A term that has NO variable is a CONSTANT.
Any number that multiplies a variable is a COEFFICIENT.
7a 4a 3b 6+ + -

Parts of an Algebraic Expression/Combining Like Terms
7a 4a 3b 6+ + -
Terms that have identical variables and exponents are LIKE TERMS.
To SIMPLIFY Expressions with Like Terms, add or subtract them.
If there are NO Like Terms, then you cannot simplify any more.

Order of Operations
What is the Order of Operations?
It is a set of rules to find the exact value of a numerical expression.
Why do we use the Order of Operations?
A long time ago, people just decided on an order in which operations should be performed. It has nothing to do with magic or logic. It makes communication easier, and everyone comes up with the same answer. (MathForum.org/Dr.Math)

Order of Operations
Use the phrase . . .
“Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally” to help remember the order in which to evaluate the expression.

P
The P stands for parentheses and represents all grouping symbols.
( ), [ ], { }
Simplify within the grouping symbols first.
If there is more than one grouping symbol, simplify within the innermost symbol
first.

E
The E stands for exponents. Evaluate all powers.

M & D
M & D stand for multiplication and division.
You must simplify whichever comes first in the expression from left to right.
![Page 12: 1.2 simplifying expressions and order of operations](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547ae490b4af9f7c398b45bc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

A & S
A & S stand for Addition and Subtraction You must simplify whichever comes first in
the expression from left to right.

Simplify
P First, work inside the brackets. Evaluate inside the parentheses first: 4 + 2 = 6. Then raise 6 to the second power: 36. Now perform addition and subtraction from left
to right: 36 - 8 = 28, now 28 +3 = 31. Brackets are done. M Multiply 31 by 4. Final answer is 124.

Algebraic Expressions
An algebraic expression is an expression that contains at least one variable.
You can evaluate an algebraic expression by replacing each variable with a value and then applying the Order of Operations.
![Page 15: 1.2 simplifying expressions and order of operations](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547ae490b4af9f7c398b45bc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Page 15
Example: Evaluate a(5a + 2b) if a=3 and b=-2
Substitute the values into the expression. 3[5(3) + 2(-2)] Now apply the Order of Operations:
Inside the brackets, perform multiplication and division before addition and subtraction
5(3) = 15 and 2(-2)= -4 3[15 + -4] then 15 + -4 = 11 3[11] = 33

Formulas
Formula is a mathematical sentence that expresses the relationship between certain quantities.
If you know a value for every variable in the formula except one, you can find the value of the remaining variable.
Examples of common formulas:
A = lw V= lwh

Example: Find the area of a rectangle if the length is 5 cm and the width is 9 cm.
Apply the formula A = lw Substitute the values of the variables A = (5 cm)(9 cm) A = 45 cm squared

Example 4A rectangular garden is 40ft longer than it is wide. The total length of the fence that surrounds the garden is 1000ft. How wide is the garden?
Let w be the width of the garden.
4w + 80 = 1000-80 -80
4w = 9204 4
w = 230
Then w + 40 is the length of the garden.

Example 5On a committee of 18 persons, there were four more women than men. How many men were on the committee?
Let m be the # of men on the committee
m + (m + 4) = 182m + 4 = 18 -4 -4
2m = 142 2
m = 7
There were 7 men on the committee.
Then m + 4 is the # of women on the committee
