1. To evaluate algebraic expressions, substitute values for variables and simplify using order of operations.
2. For the equation [(x + 2) / 2] + [(x – 1) / 3] = 4, the solution is x = 4.
3. For the equation (1 – x )/4 = (x – 1)/5, the solution is x=1.

1. Briefly discuss what Evaluation of Values of Algebraic Expressions is
about… To evaluate an expression, we substitute the given number for the variable in the expression and then simplify the expression using the order of operations. Solve for x: 2. [(x + 2) / 2] + [(x – 1) / 3] = 4 Ans: x = 4 Solution: [(x + 2) / 2] + [(x – 1) / 3] = 5x/5 + 2/3 5x / 6 * 6 + 2 / 3 * 6 = 4 * 6 5x + 4 = 24 5x + 4 – 4 + 24 – 4 5x = 20 5x/5 = 20 / 5 X=4 3. (1 – x )/4 = (x – 1)/5 Ans: x=1 Solution: (1-x) * 5 = 4(x-1) 5 - 5x = 4x – 4 5 – 5x – 5 = 4x – 4 – 5 -5x = 4x – 9 -5x – 4x = 4x – 9 – 4x -9x/-9 = 9 / 9 X= 1 4. Construct an algebraic expression using grouping symbols to subtract the sum of A and B from C= Ans: C- (A + B) 5. Translate the following into symbols/equation and evaluate it: One number is four less than twice another. If the smaller number is divided by 2 and the larger number is divided by 3, the sum of their quotients is 8. What are the numbers? Ans: The numbers are 8 & 12 Solution: Let x = 1st number 2x -4 = 2nd number x / 2 + 2x + 4 / 3 = 8 6 [x / 2 + 2x + 4 / 3 = 8] 6 x=8 3x + 2 (2x -4) =48 2x - 4 = 2 (8) - 4 3x + 4x - 8 = 48 = 16 - 4 7x = 48 + 8 =12 7x = 56 7x / 7 = 56 / 7 x=8 6. Use the given inequality to illustrate the multiplication/division property (hint: just perform what the property say): Let your multiplier /divisor be 5: X > Y where x = 2; y = 1 Ans: 5x >5y 5(2) > 5(1) = 10 >5 x/5>y/5 = 2/5>1/5
