When you break 32 x 8 into 30 x 8 + 2 x 8 Distributive law When you break 32 x 8 into 30 x 8 + 2 x 8 In algebra this looks like 3a + 4a = 7a 20 May 2019
Brackets Indices (powers) Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction Substitution – Algebra and bidmas including (2n and n²) calculations are carried out in this order Brackets Indices (powers) Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction so 8 + 4 x 3 = 20 (8 + 12) 3(7 + 2) = 27 4 + 6²÷ 9 = 8 (4 + 36 ÷ 9 = 4 + 4) 35 – (8 – 3) ² = 10 20 May 2019
Substitution – Algebra and bidmas including (2n and n²) Evaluate 4p + 6 when i) p = 5 ii) p = -3 iii) p = 0 p = 5 4p + 6 4 x p + 6 4 x 5 + 6 = 20 + 6 = 26 p = -3 4p + 6 4 x p + 6 4 x -3 + 6 = -12 + 6 = -6 p = 0 4p + 6 4 x p + 6 4 x 0+ 6 = 0 + 6 = 0 20 May 2019
Evaluate 2n – 21 when i) n = 7 ii) n = 12 iii) n = -3 2 x n – 21 2 x 7 – 21 = 14 – 21 = -7 n = 12 2n – 21 2 x n – 21 2 x 12 – 21 = 24 – 21 = 3 n = -3 2n – 21 2 x n – 21 2 x -3 – 21 = -6 – 21 = -27 20 May 2019
Evaluate 2n and n² when i) n = 3 ii) n= 7 iii) n = -4 2n means 2 x n n² means n x n 2n = 2 x n n² = n x n = 2 x 3 = 3 x 3 2n = 6 n² = 9 ii) n = 7 2n means 2 x n n² means n x n 2n = 2 x n n² = n x n = 2 x 7 = 7 x 7 2n = 14 n² = 49 iii) n = -4 2n means 2 x n n² means n x n 2n = 2 x -4 n² = n x n = 2 x -4 = -4 x -4 2n = -8 n² = 16 20 May 2019
