UNIT 1 Math 621 Simplifying Expressions Description: This unit focuses on using quantities to model and analyze situations, interpret expressions, and create expressions to describe situations. Students will work in one-variable and multivariable settings, attain fluency with such algebraic manipulations as use of the distributive property, simple factoring, and connecting the structure of expressions to the contextual meanings of those expressions. Broadly, the unit will help students with the transition into using the tools of algebra to model and explore scenarios. 1.1: Order of Arithmetic Operations (PEMDAS) 1.2: Linear Combinations and Writing Math Expressions 1.3: Arithmetic Properties 1.4: Greatest Common Factors (GCF) and simple factoring 1.5: Evaluating expressions 1.6: Simplifying expressions & combining like terms 1.7: Review Unit 1 TEST RESOURCES 1.1 PEMDAS Khan Academy PEMDAS: on-to-order-of-operations 1.2: Linear Combination and Writing Math Expressions How to Write Expressions from Variables: iting-expressions-1 1.3: Properties (associative, commutative, distributive, additive/mult identities, additive/mult inverses) Arithmetic Properties: ative-law-of-addition 1.4: GCF and simple factoring GCF: st-common-divisor-factor-exercise 1.5: Evaluating expressions (substitution) - (more practice on PEMDAS in the context of substitution)

When simplifying an expression, the order is perform all operations inside any parenthesis first, followed by evaluating all exponents. Third, do all multiplication and division at the same time, from left to right. Lastly, do all addition and subtraction at the same time, from left to right. Some people refer to the order of operations as PEMDAS. The order is as follows: Parenthesis Do anything in parenthesis first. Exponents Next, all powers (exponents) need to be evaluated. Multiplication/Division Multiplication and division must be done at the same time, from left to right, because they are inverses of each other. Addition/Subtraction Addition and subtraction are also done together, from left to right. Example A Simplify ! 2 " (5 " 1) Solution: Parenthesis: ! 3 " 4 Exponents: 4 + 6! 3 " 4 Multiplication: ! 4 Add/Subtract: 18 Example B Simplify 9! " 3! 7 Solution: Think of everything in the numerator as if it were in its own set of parenthesis as well as everything in the denominator. The problem can be rewritten as (9! ) (2 2 " 3! 7) When there are multiple operations in a set of parenthesis, use the Order of Operations within each set. (9! ) (2 2 " 3! 7) = (9! ) (4 " 3! 7) = (7 + 13) (12! 7) = 20 5 =4 page 1

Example: 4x+20 a. Identify the GCF. b. Divide each term in the expression by the GCF. How can you check your final expression is equivalent to the original?

13 You have probably seen letters in a mathematical expression, such as 3x + 8. These letters, also called variables, represent an unknown number. One of the goals of algebra is to solve various equations for a variable. To evaluate an expression or equation, we would need to substitute in a given value for the variable and test it. In order for the given value to be true for an equation, the two sides of the equation must simplify to the same number. Example A: Evaluate 2x2 9 for x = 3. Example B: Determine if x = 5 is a solution to 3x 11 = 14. Example C: Sometimes you are given a formula to use. For example, the formula for the area of a circle is A =! r 2, where r is the radius in feet. If the radius is 4ft, find the area. Vocabulary Check Variable- A letter used to represent an unknown value. Expression- A group of variables, numbers, and operators. Equation- Two expressions joined by an equal sign. Solution- A numeric value that makes an equation true page Classwork Below are some formulas that we will use for practice today. You do NOT need to memorize these. Area of a Circle with radius = r. A =! r 2 Surface area of a rectangular prism with length = l, width = w and height = h. SA = 2wl + 2wh + 2lh r Children s Dose of some Volume of a Sphere with Medications given radius = r the adult dose = A and the child s age = g (years). 4 3 V =! r 3! g $ C =# & ' A " g +12 % Volume of a cone with radius = r and height = h. 1 V =! r 2 h 3 Surface Area of a Cylinder with radius = r and height = h. SA = 2! r 2 + 2! rh Use the appropriate formula from the list above to find the values requested below. 1. Find the surface area of a rectangular prism 2. Find the volume of a cone with radius = 3 cm with length = 10 in, width = 4 in, & and height = 12 cm. height = 5 in. 3. Find the Area of a circle with radius = 5 in. 4. Find the appropriate dose of a medication for a 6 year old child if the Adult dose is 120 mg.

Suppose you stand at the top of a very you stand at the top of a tall building and tall building and drop a penny off the you drop something (like a penny) off top. How many feet will it have traveled the roof. The distance the object has after 2 second? fallen depends upon how long it has been falling. Let t stand for time (in seconds). If we measure the distance in 1 feet, the formula is: d = (32)t If we measure in meters, it is: d = (9.8)t 2 Suppose you drop a penny off the same 2 building. How many meters will it have travelled in 2.5 seconds? 1 Note: The general formula is d = gt 2 2 where g stands for gravitational constant. The gravitation constant for feet = 32 ft/sec and the gravitation constant for meters = 9.8 m/sec. for objects near the surface of the Earth. The numbers are different near the surface of the moon or planets other than Earth. Evaluate each variable expression when a = 4 and b = (a + b) b 2 + 2ab b!a+7 2 a + b page 22 Section 1.6 Notes Simplifying Expressions Corey has a bowl of fruit that consists of 5 apples, 4 oranges, and 3 limes. Katelyn went to the farmer s market and picked up 2 apples, 5 limes, and an orange. How many apples, oranges, and limes do Corey and Katelyn have combined? Combining like terms is much like grouping together different fruits, like apples and oranges. Every algebraic expression has at least one term. A term is a number or is the product of a number and a variable. Terms are separated by addition and subtraction signs. A constant is a term that has no variable. Given: 3x + 7 3x and 7 are terms (7 is also called a constant) Algebraic expressions often have like terms that can be combined. Like terms are terms that have the same variable. All constants are like terms. The coefficient, the number multiplied by a variable in a term, does not need to be the same in order for the terms to be like terms. Example 1: Match pairs of like terms: 6x 2y 3m x

15 9 3m 5 14y In order to simplify an algebraic expression you must combine all like terms. When combining like terms you must remember that the operation in front of the term (addition or subtraction) must stay attached to the term. Rewrite the expression by grouping like terms together before adding or subtracting the coefficients to simplify. Example 2: Simplify each algebraic expression by combining like terms. a. 4x + 3x + 5x b. 8y y + 1 c. 9m + 10p 3p 2m + 4m d. 4d d 12 Simplify each algebraic expression by combining like terms. 1. 4y + 2y + 3y 4. 5x + 9y + 3x 2y 7. 22u 6u + 4t + 4t 8u 2. 8x + x 5x 5. 14p p 8. x + y + x + x + 2y x 3. 10m 4m + 2m 3m d 3d n + 3n 2 13 page Classwork Combining Like Terms
