ABEST ALGEBRA WORKSHEET 01

Combine Like Terms and Distributive Property

WARM UP: SIMPLIFY EACH EXPRESSION

1) 12r + 5s – 7t + 11r + 9s – 4r 4) 8y – 6(3y – 7) = 8y – 18y + 42 = -10y + 42


19r + 14s – 7t

2) – 4(5a – 3b) = -20a + 12b 5) 2(z + 3) + 3(5 – 3z) = 2z+6+15-9z=-7z+21

3) 5(7 + 3x) – 12 = 35 + 15x – 12 = 15x + 23 6) 8x2 – 7x + 4x3 – 2 – 3x2 + 9x - 4

=4 x3 + 5 x2 + 2x -6

#1 – 3: COMBINE LIKE TERM WORD PROBLEMS:


1) Bob mowed (2x2 + 5x – 3) yards on Monday, (4x – 7) yards on Tuesday, and (3x2 + 10) yards on
Wednesday.
a. How many yards did he mow in the three days?

b. If Bob mowed 14x2 + 12x – 3 yards total for the entire week, how many yards did he mow during
the rest of the week?

2) Molly has (4x + 10) dollars and Ron has (20 – 5x) dollars.
a. How much money do they have altogether?

b. How much more money does Molly have than Ron?

3) Ross has (8x – 5) tickets for Chuck E Cheese. He is going to play today and wants to buy a prize that is
(15x + 1) tickets. How many tickets must he win to have enough tickets to buy the prize?
4) Find the perimeter of each of the shapes pictured below:
(Combine Like Terms of the sides)
3ab + 4a2
3 – 2x 4z + 3
x
4z + 3 2a2 3b2
7+y 6b2 – 5ab

7 + 3x
3x - 4 3x - 4
3a - b 3a - b
5x – 2
7 – 2x 7 – 2x
3a - b
5x + 5

5) FIND THE AREA OF THE GIVEN SHAPES:


Equation #1: Area of Rectangle = Length * Width,
Equation #2: Area of Triangle = ½ *Base*Height

a. Find area of a rectangle with length of 5 and width of 3x – 5y + 6.

3x – 5y + 6
b. Find area of a rectangle with width of 7 and length of 6x – 7
c. Find area of a triangle with base of 12 and height of 5a + 7b

5a + 7b
12
d. Find area of a triangle with base of (6y + 5y – 2) and height of 8
2

Find the missing side of the shape based on its perimeter and known sides.
6) A triangle has a perimeter of 10a + 3b + 12 and has sides of length 3a + 8 and 5a + b,
what is the length of the third side?
5a + b
3a + 8

Missing Side

7) A triangle has a perimeter of 7x – 2y + 15 and has sides of length 5x + y and 7 + x,


what is the length of the third side?

8) For a rectangle with length of 3x + 4 and perimeter of 10x + 18,


what is the width of the rectangle?
3x + 4

Missing Width

9) A rectangle has a perimeter of 8x2 + 10x – 6 and has a width of 3x2 + 4x,
what is the length of the rectangle?
10) A square has a perimeter of 32ab – 12, what is the side length of the square?
