Identify and use mathematical properties to simplify algebraic expressions. • property • counterexample • simplify Main Idea/Vocabulary
Identify Properties Name the property shown by the statement (3 • m) • 2 = 2 • (3 • m). Answer: The grouping of the numbers and variable did not change, but their order did. This is the Commutative Property of Multiplication. Example 1
Name the property shown by the statement 4 + (8 + x) = (4 + 8) + x. A. Associative Property of Addition B. Associative Property of Multiplication C. Commutative Property of Addition D. Commutative Property of Multiplication Example 1 CYP
? (12 – 5) – 3 = 12 – (5 – 3) State the conjecture. Find a Counterexample State whether the following conjecture is true or false. If false, provide a counterexample. Subtraction of whole numbers is associative. Write two subtraction expressions using the Associative Property. 4 ≠ 10 Simplify. Answer: The conjecture is false. We found a counterexample: (12 – 5) – 3 ≠ 12 – (5 – 3). So, subtraction is not associative. Example 2
State whether the following conjecture is true or false. If false, provide a counterexample.Division of whole numbers is associative. A. true B.false; (16 ÷ 8) ÷ 2 ≠ 16 ÷ (8 ÷ 2) Example 2 CYP
Use Mental Math GARDENS In a museum garden, a decorative pool containing fish is 2 feet deep, 17 feet long, and 5 feet wide. Use mental math to find the volume of water in the pool. Write an expression for the volume. You can rearrange the numbers using the properties of math. Look for products that are multiples of 10. 2 × 17 × 5 = 2 × 5 × 17 Commutative Property = (2 × 5) × 17 Associative Property = 10 × 17 Multiply. = 170 Simplify. Answer: The volume of the water is 170 cubic feet. Example 3
ROCKS A landscaper bought four rocks to use in a landscaping project. The rocks weighed 15 pounds, 22 pounds, 8 pounds, and 25 pounds. Use mental math to find the total weight of the rocks. A. 50 pounds B. 60 pounds C. 70 pounds D. 80 pounds Example 3 CYP
Simplify Algebraic Expressions Simplify the expression 6 + (d + 8). Justify each step. Answer: 6 + (d + 8) = 6 + (8 + d) Commutative Property of Addition = (6 + 8) + d Associative Property of Addition = 14 + d Simplify. Example 4
Simplify the expression 5m + (3+ 11m). Name two properties you can use to justify the steps. A.5m + 14; Commutative (+) and Associative (+) B.11m + 8; Commutative (×) and Associative (×) C.16m + 3; Commutative (+) and Associative (+) D. 16m; Commutative (×) and Associative (×) Example 4 CYP
Simplify Algebraic Expressions Simplify the expression a • (9 • b). Justify each step. Answer: a• (9 •b) = (a• 9) •b Associative Property of Multiplication = (9 •a) •b Commutative Property of Multiplication = 9ab Simplify. Example 5
Simplify the expression 7• (t • 2). Name two properties you can use to justify the steps. A. 9t; Commutative (×) and Associative (×) B. 14t; Commutative (×) and Associative (×) C. 14 + t; Commutative (+) and Associative (+) D. 7t + 2; Commutative (×) and Associative (+) Example 5 CYP
