Warm Up:Use Chunking and Order of Operations to solve. 1) 3) 2) 4)
Learning Target • Read Learning Target #2. • Evaluating Algebraic Expression Problems are like this: Evaluate if x = 2 and y = 4 Rate your self in the “B” (before) section for LT #2 on how well you can do problems like these.
Expressions An expression is NOT an equation because it DOES NOT have an equal sign. There are 2 types of expressions. • 5 + 84 Numerical • 3x + 10 Algebraic Notice there are no equal signs in these Expression (so they are not equations!)
Numerical Expression • A numerical expression contains • only numbers and symbols. • (5 3) + 8
Algebraic Expression An algebraic expression contains only numbers, symbols, and variables. It is sometimes referred to as a variable expression. • The product of 3 and x 3x • The sum of m and 8 m + 8 • The difference of r and 2 r - 2
What is a variable? A variable represents an unknown value. 1) 3 + ___ = 11 2) 6 + = 8 These are all variables 3) 8 + x = 10 4) 5 + = 9
Variable Expressions Variable expressions consist of constants, variables, and operations. Example Meaning Operation
Evaluate Evaluate means to find the value of an algebraic expression by substituting numbers in for variables. m = 2 8 + m ? 8 + 2 10
Variable Substitution Evaluate the variable expression when n = 6. Substitute. Chunk. Use OOO and PEMDAS to complete 1) 2) Do on whiteboards!

Variable Substitution Evaluate the expression if x = 3 and y = 4. 1) 2)
That's all Folks! Take Out Your Learning Targets!!!
TYPES OFEXPRESSIONS LT #2 An expression is NOT an equation because it does not have an equal sign. NUMERICAL EXPRESSION: Contains only numbers and symbols. Example:5 3 + 4 ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION: Contains numbers, symbols, and variables. Example:m + 8 A VARIABLE is a letter or symbol that represents a number. Example: x
LT #2 Example Problem: Evaluate 4x – 5 + 2(y – 3) When x = 2 and y = 4 4(2) – 5 + 2(4 – 3) Show the substitution 4(2) – 5 + 2(4 – 3) Chunk it 8 – 5 + 2(1) Work within each chunk. 5 Work down. No equal signs. 8 – 5 + __2___ Work within each chunk. 3 + 2 Add/Subtract chunks from left to right.
