THE MATHEMATICIAN’S PRAYER
Heavenly Father, thank You for all the blessings You gave unto us.
Add joy to the world;
Subtract evil from our lives,
Multiply the good things for us.
Divide the gifts and share them to others.
Convert badness to goodness.
Help us raise our needs to You.
Extract the roots of immoralities
and perform our different functions in life.
Tell us all that life is as easy as math.
Help us all to solve our problems.
These we ask in Jesus’ name,
the greatest mathematician who ever lived on earth,
Amen!

While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close,
and Attitude will get you there, it's the Love of God
that will put you over the top!

Analysis:
1. What did we do in our activity?
2. How did we find the value of the given
words?
When a number is substituted or replaced for
the variable in each algebraic expression, the
expression takes a numerical value. And
finding the value is what we call “Evaluating
the Algebraic Expression”.
Evaluating Algebraic Expressions
- is substituting a certain number for that variable and
performs using the order of the arithmetic operations
For example:
1. If , what is the value of ?
2. If what is the value of ?
3. If and , what is the value of ?
Evaluating Algebraic Expressions
There are at least two steps involved in evaluating
algebraic expression:
1. Replacing the variable by the given value
(substitution);
2. Performing the indicated arithmetic following
the order of operations.
Example 1: Evaluate the given algebraic expression.
a.
Substitute for .
Add.
Example 1: Evaluate the given algebraic expression.
b.
