Substitution We will now start giving values to unknowns. How can we represent 4 Five Yen coins and 2 One Thousand Yen notes algebraically? 4𝑥+2𝑦 Here, 𝑥 and 𝑦 refer to the value of these items. We know their values, right? 𝑥= 5 𝑦= 1000 So as 𝑥=5, 𝑦=1000, what is the value of 4𝑥+2𝑦? 4𝑥+2𝑦= 4×5+2×1000 =20+2000 =2020
Substitution This is substitution. We simply swap unknowns for numbers (their values). Example Calculate 𝑥+𝑦 when 𝑥=4 and 𝑦=7. 𝑥+𝑦= 4+7 =11 Easy, yeah? We just literally swap like that. Example Note: Remember, 3𝑥 means 3×𝑥. Calculate 3𝑥−2𝑦 when 𝑥=4 and 𝑦=3. 3𝑥−2𝑦= 3×4−2×3 =12−6 =6

Worded Examples As shown before, modelling worded problems makes things simpler. Example A man walks around a circuit three times (at a constant speed) and then runs around the circuit twice (at a different constant speed). Model: 3𝑥+2𝑦 =3×2+2×0.5 Note: 𝑥 and 𝑦 can represent a number of seconds, minutes, hours or any unit of time. He takes 2 minutes to walk a lap and 30 seconds to run one. How long does he take in total? 7 minutes.

Order of Operations We must review the order that we calculate in. Example Calculate 4 2 +3×(2−1). = 4 2 +3× 1 =16+3× 1 =16+3 =19 Remember, calculate things in brackets first, then powers, then division / multiplication and lastly addition / subtraction. Note: Division is another style of multiplication. Addition is another style of subtraction.

Non-Linear Substitution We saw the word linear in sequences. In algebra, linear means that no unknowns multiply other unknowns or themselves. Yes. Is 3𝑥−4 linear? Yes. Is 2𝑥 linear? Is 𝑥𝑦 linear? No. Is 𝑥 2 linear? No. Non-linear expressions may include things like 𝑥𝑦 and 𝑥 2 . Examples Calculate 3 𝑥 2 +𝑦 when 𝑥=2, 𝑦=0. 3 𝑥 2 +𝑦= 3× 2 2 +0 =3×4+0 =12 Calculate 2𝑥𝑦+4 when 𝑥=4, 𝑦=3. Note: Remember this! 2𝑥𝑦+4= 2×4×3+4 =24+4 =28

Brackets and Substitution We have only looked at brackets in simple cases. We can expand first and then substitute or substitute immediately. Example Calculate 4 𝑥 2 −𝑦 when 𝑥=5, 𝑦=2. 4( 𝑥 2 −𝑦)= 4 𝑥 2 −4𝑦= 4× 5 2 −4×2 =100−8 =92 We can of course substitute first. 4( 𝑥 2 −𝑦)= 4( 5 2 −2)= 4×23 =92 Note: You should be able to substitute using both of these methods.
