Bell Ringer T = Evaluate the Expression and the Exponent Describe the difference between a math expression and equation? Provide and example of each.
Vocabulary - Algebraic Expression An expression that contains numbers, operations and variables. - Equation Mathematical sentence that contains an equals sign between two expressions. Good to Know! Algebraic expressions can be evaluated when the values of the variables are given.
Evaluating Expressions • Rewrite the expression by replacing the variables with the given values. • Follow the order of operations to compute the value of the expression.
Example 1 Evaluate the algebraic expression: a. 2x – 8 when x = 4 Write the expression.2x – 8 Substitute 4 for x.2(4) – 8 Multiply.8 – 8 Subtract.0
Powers, Bases and Exponents 34 = 3 3 3 3 Exponent Base Expanded Form Power Read as “3 to the 4th power”
Example 2 • Find the value of each. • 42 2. (2 − 9)2 • Write 53 in expanded form
Exit Problems Evaluate each expression when x = 5. • 7x – 6 • (x – 1)2 29 16 –2
