Evaluating a Variable ExpressionTo evaluate a variable expression: • substitute the given numbers for each variable. • use order of operations to solve.
What is the value of y if x=3? If x= -3? y= -x If x=3, y = -3 If x= -3, y = 3
What is the value of y if x=3? If x= -3? y= 5-x If x=3, y = 2 If x= -3, y = 8
What is the value of y if x=3? If x= -3? y= 5-2x If x=3, y = -1 If x= -3, y = 11
If x=3, y = 9 If x= -3, y = 9
If x=3, y = -9 If x= -3, y = -9
Answer Now What is the value of 5k3 if k = -4? • -8000 • -320 • -60 • 320
Answer Now What is the value of -10 – 4x if x = -13? • -62 • -42 • 42 • 52
Example # 4 n + (13 - n) 5 for n = 8 = 8 + (13 - 8) 5 (Substitute.) = 8 + 5 5 (parentheses) = 8 + 1 (Divide l/r.) = 9(Add l/r.)
Example # 5 8y - 3x2+ 2n for x = 5, y = 2, n =3 = 8 2- 3 52 + 2 3 (Substitute.) = 8 2 - 3 25 + 2 3 (exponents) = 16- 3 25 + 2 3 (Multiply l/r.) = 16 -75 + 2 3 (Multiply l/r.) = 16 - 75 + 6 (Multiply l/r.) = -59 + 6 (Subtract l/r.) = -53 (Add l/r.)
Answer Now What is the value ofif n = -8, m = 4, and t = 2 ? • 10 • -10 • -6 • 6
