Algebraic Expressions How do you add, subtract, multiply, and factor algebraic expressions?
Generating equivalent expressions Expand the expression 2(𝑎+7) using the distributive property. 2 𝑎+7 =2∙𝑎+2∙7 =2𝑎+14 Factor the expression 2𝑥+2 Find the common factor 2 Divide each term by the common factor 2𝑥 2 + 2 2 Put parentheses around the simplified expression (𝑥+1) Put the common factor outside the parentheses, indicating multiplication. 2(𝑥+1) CHECK
