Simplifying Expressions Lesson 4.5 Simplifying Expressions

Warm-Up Use the Distributive Property to simplify each expression.

Simplifying Expressions Lesson 4.5 Simplifying Expressions Simplify expressions using the Distributive Property and combining like terms.

Vocabulary Like Terms Terms that contain the same variable(s). Simplify an Expression To write an expression so there are no parentheses and all like terms have been combined. Equivalent Expressions Expressions which represent the same algebraic expression.

Example 1 Simplify each algebraic expression by combining like terms. a. 4x – 7x + 5x All terms are alike. 4x – 7x + 5x Add and subtract the coefficients = (4 – 7 + 5)x from left to right. = 2x = 2x

Example 1 Continued… Simplify each algebraic expression by combining like terms. b. 8y + (– 6) + 3 – 4y There are two types of like terms in this expression: constants and terms that have the y variable. Rewrite the expression so the like terms are next to each other. Add the like terms together. Remember to move the operation with the term: –4y = 4y – 3 8y + (– 6) + 3 – 4y 8y – 4y + (–6) +3 4y –3 Can also be written as 4y + (–3)

Example 2 Simplify 9m + 3p – 3p – 2m + m. Group the like terms together. The addition or subtraction sign must stay attached to the term. Add or subtract the coefficients of the like terms from left to right. 0p represents zero p’s so the term does not need to be written. 9m + 3p – 3p – 2m + m = 8m The coefficient of m is 1. 9m + 3p – 3p – 2m + m 9m – 2m + 1m + 3p – 3p 8m 0p 8m + 0p = 8m

Simplifying an Algebraic Expression Rewrite the expression without parentheses using the Distributive Property, if needed. Combine all like terms.

Example 3 Simplify the algebraic expression. a. 4(x + 5) – 3x + 7 Distribute 4 through the parentheses. Group like terms. Combine like terms. 4(x + 5) – 3x + 7 4x + 20 – 3x + 7 4x – 3x + 20 + 7 x + 27

Example 3 Continued… Simplify the algebraic expression. b. 6y – 2(y – 7) + 3 Distribute (–2) through the parentheses. Combine like terms. 6y – 2(y – 7) + 3 6y – 2y + 14 + 3 4y + 17

Communication Prompt If a classmate missed this lesson, how would you describe to them the process of simplifying an expression?
