11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Helpful Hint Constants such as 4, 0.75, and 11 are like terms because none of them have a variable. Terms in an expression are separated by plus or minus signs. Like terms can be grouped together because they have the same variable raised to the same power. Equivalent expressions have the same value for all values of the variables.
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Additional Example 1: Combining Like Terms To Simplify Combine like terms. A.14a – 5a Identify like terms. 9a Combine coefficients: 14 – 5 = 9 Identify like terms ; the coefficient of y is 1, because 1y = y. B.7y + 8 – 3y – 1 + y Combine coefficients: 7 – 3 + 1 = 5 and 8 – 1 = 7 5y + 7
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Additional Example 2A: Combining Like Terms in Two-Variables Expressions Combine like terms. 9x + 3y – 2x + 5 9x + 3y – 2x + 5 Identify like terms. 7x + 3y + 5 Combine coefficients: 9 – 2 = 7
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Additional Example 2B: Combining Like Terms in Two-Variable Expressions Combine like terms. 5t + 7p – 3p – 2t 5t + 7p – 3p – 2t Identify like terms. Combine coefficients: 5 – 2 = 3 and 7 – 3= 4 3t + 4p
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Additional Example 2C: Combining Like Terms in Two-Variable Expressions Combine like terms. 4m + 9n – 2 4m + 9n – 2 No like terms.
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Remember! The Distributive Property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac for all real numbers a, b, and c. For example, 2(3 + 5) = 2(3) + 2(5). To simplify an expression, perform all possible operations, including combining like terms.
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Additional Example 3: Using the Distributive Property to Simplify Simplify 6(5 + n) – 2n. 6(5 + n) – 2n 6(5) +6(n) – 2n Distributive Property. 30 + 6n – 2n Multiply. 30 + 4n Combine coefficients 6 – 2 = 4.
11-1 Simplifying Algebraic Expressions Additional Example 4: Combining Like Terms to Solve Algebraic Equations Solve x + 3x = 48. x + 3x = 48 Identify like terms. The coefficient of x is 1. 4x = 48 Combine coefficients: 1 + 3 = 4 4x = 48 Divide both sides by 4. 4 4 x = 12
