Write an expressionfor five less than the

productof a number n and 8

True or False:n is an algebraic

expression

Write an algebraic expression for:

the quotient of the product of two and n

and m

Write a word expressionfor this:

The FIRST step in evaluating an algebraic expression is called the

_____________step

Evaluate when n = -3:3n – (-7)

Evaluate when n = -3and r = -2:

(nr)2

Evaluate when n = -2 :

(n – 3)(n – 4) ÷ (-3n)

Evaluate when n = -4and p = 2:

(3n + 9 - np)n + 2p

We solve equations by using these operations

n + (-7) = 8

What do you do to solve

this?

What do you do to solve

this?

-4n = -12

a – (-9) = -4

What do you do to solve

this?

Tell 3 things you could do to both sides

of this equation to solve it:

-x = 8

– 3 + 2j = 4

What is the “wrapping

paper”?

-2b – 3 = -19

Solve

-8 – 3x= -17

Solve

1.2k – 6 = 6

Solve

2(-3p + 6) = -18

Solve (hint: it’s 3 steps!)

In most word problems “of” means what operation?

Write an equation:

4 less than twice a number n is 6

Write an equation:Two-thirds of a

number n, decreased by 3, is 12

Write an equation then

solve it:The quotient of a number n and -8,

less 5, is 25

Write an equation then solve:

Jim is 2 years less than twice his sister’s age. If Jim is 12 how old is

his sister?
