EQ: How do I use the order of operations to evaluate an expression with a variable?

Vocabulary Start-Up A variable is a symbol that represents and unknown quantity. An algebraic expression, such as n+2, is an expression that contains variable, number, and at least one operation.

Standard 7.EE.1 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients. 7.EE.2 Understand that rewriting and expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how quantities in it are related.

Prior Learning Today we will tie our previous lessons together - the order of operations and evaluating expressions You learned that evaluating an expression with a variable means to substitute a letter (variable) or symbol for a number. Remember that we use this skill all of the time when cooking.

Relevance Do you or your parents have a texting plan? If so, how much does it cost per text or per month? Ask your parents to help you research different texting plans. Then compare and contrast each plan.

Real Life Application For lunch, Terry bought 3 pizzas for $13 each. If the variable t represents a tip, the expression 3(13)= t represents the total Terry paid for lunch. If the tip was $2, how much did Terry spend in all? $39 + $2= $41

Rules for Solving Equations To evaluate an expression that has a variable, follow the order of operations. (PEMDAS) Substitute the number for the variable

Modeling Level G Module 8 Vmath Lesson 3:evaluating expressions Modeling: Teacher will open the lesson by completing problems 1- 3 in the Vmath skill book page 11. (CFU-Review lesson if needed)

Guided Practice Level H Module 8 Vmath Lesson 2 variables and expressions Modeling: Teacher will provide Guided practice while completing problems 4-7 on pages 11& 12. (CFU-looking for at least 80% skill mastery )

CFU/Closure Use your dry erase board to solve the problem Evaluating Expressions 12+ (10-f), when f x 4

Reflection How do you use the order of operations to evaluate and expression with a variable? **Write it on your dry erase board**

Independent Practice Independent practice: Students will complete the skill building: new and review section on page 13 & 14. Students may work with their shoulder partner to complete problems. Teacher will circulate classroom and provide extra support to students while they are completing assignment.(CFU)

Essential Question How do I solve one-step equations by adding or subtracting?

Math Vocabulary Equation: a mathematical sentence with an equal sign Ex. Y + 5 = 10 Variable: a letter or symbol that represents a number Ex. Y + 5 = 10 Solution: a number that, when substituted for a variable in an equation, results in a true statement. Ex. Y + 5 = 10 / 5+ 5 = 10 Ex. Y + 5 = 10 / 5+ 5 = 10

Relevance: how am I going to use this information? In geometry, you’ll use equations to find missing angle measures.

Prior Learning Yesterday our lesson focused on the skill of evaluating expressions. In this lesson you had to use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to evaluate (solve) an expression with a variable(a letter or a symbol). Today, we will build onto that knowledge by solving one-step equations by adding or subtracting.

Real Life Application The Gateway to the West Arch in St. Louis, Missouri, is 630 feet tall. It is 75 feet higher than the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. Being able to solve one-step equations by adding will help you find out the height of the Washington Monument. Use the equation t + 75 = 630 to find the height of the Washington Monument.

Standard Represent algebraic relationships with variables in expressions, simple equations, and simple inequalities.

Rules for Solving Equations 1.Get the variable by itself one side of the equation. To solve P + 6= 16, get P by itself. 2.Perform the opposite operation on both sides of the equation. P + 6 – 6=16-6 P + 6 – 6=16-6 P=10 P=10
