3
What is a Constant? A constant is a fixed value, a number on its own, whose value does not change. A constant may either be positive or negative. Example: 4x + 2 In this expression 2 is a constant. click to reveal
4
What is a Variable? A variable is any letter or symbol that represents a changeable or unknown value. Example: 4x + 2 In this expression x is a variable. click to reveal
5
What is a Coefficient? A coefficient is the number multiplied by the variable. It is located in front of the variable. Example: 4x + 2 In this expression 4 is a coefficient. click to reveal
6
If a variable contains no visible coefficient, the coefficient is 1. Example 1: x + 7 is the same as 1x + 7 - x + 7 is the same as -1x + 7 Example 2:
7
1 In 2x - 12, the variable is "x" True False
8
2In 6y + 20, the variable is "y" True False
9
3In 3x + 4, the coefficient is 3 True False
10
4 What is the constant in 7x - 3? 7 x 3 A B C D - 3
11
5What is the coefficient in - x + 3? none 1 A B C D 3
12

Translating Between Words and Expressions Return to Table of Contents

List words that indicate addition
18
List words that indicate subtraction
19
List words that indicate multiplication
20
List words that indicate division
21
Be aware of the difference between "less" and "less than". For example: "Eight less three" and "Three less than Eight" are equivalent expressions. So what is the difference in wording? Eight less three:8 - 3 Three less than eight:8 - 3 When you see "less than", you need to switch the order of the numbers.
22
As a rule of thumb, if you see the words "than" or "from" it means you have to reverse the order of the two items on either side of the word. Examples: 8 less than b means b - 8 3 more than x means x + 3 x less than 2 means 2 - x click to reveal
23
The many ways to represent multiplication... How do you represent "three times a"? (3)(a)3(a)3 a3a The preferred representation is 3a When a variable is being multiplied by a number, the number (coefficient) is always written in front of the variable. The following are not allowed: 3xa... The multiplication sign looks like another variable a3... The number is always written in front of the variable
24
Representation of division... How do you represent "b divided by 12"? b ÷ 12 b ∕ 12 b 12
25
When choosing a variable, there are some that are often avoided: l, i, t, o, O, s, S Why might these be avoided? It is best to avoid using letters that might be confused for numbers or operations. In the case above (1, +, 0, 5)

The Distributive Property Return to Table of Contents
79
An Area Model Find the area of a rectangle whose width is 4 and whose length is x + 2 4 x 2 Area of two rectangles: 4(x) + 4(2) = 4x + 8 4 x + 2 Area of One Rectangle: 4(x + 2) = 4x + 8
80
The Distributive Property Finding the area of the rectangles demonstrates the distributive property 4(x + 2) = 4(x) + 4(2) = 4x + 8 The 4 is distributed to each term of the sum (x + 2) Write an expression equivalent to: 5(x + 3) = 5(x) + 5(3) = 5x + 15 6(x + 4) = 5(x + 7) = 2(x - 1) = 4(x - 8) =
81
The Distributive Property a(b + c) = ab + ac Example: 2(x + 3) = 2x + 6 (b + c)a = ba + ca Example: (x + 7)3 = 3x + 21 a(b - c) = ab - ac Example: 5(x - 2) = 5x - 10 (b - c)a = ba - ca Example: (x - 3)6 = 6x - 18 click to reveal
82
The Distributive Property is often used to eliminate the parentheses in expressions like 4(x + 2). This makes it possible to combine like terms in more complicated expressions. EXAMPLE: 3(4x - 6) = 3(4x) - 3(6) = 12 x - 18 -2(x + 3) = -2(x) + -2(3) = -2x + -6 or -2x - 6 -3(4x - 6) = -3(4x) - -3(6) = -12x - -18 or -12x + 18 TRY THESE: 4(7x + 5) = -6(2x + 4) = -3(5m - 8) =
83
Keep in mind that when there is a negative sign out side of the parenthesis it really is a -1. For example: -(3x + 4) = -1(3x + 4) = -1(3x) + -1(4) = -3x - 4 What do you notice about the original problem and its answer? The numbers are turned to their opposites. Remove to see answer. Try these: -(2x + 5) =-(-5x + 3) = -(6x - 7) = -(-x - 9) =
84
36 4(x + 6) = 4 + 4(6) True False

86
38Use the distributive property to rewrite the expression without parentheses (x - 6)3 3x - 6 3x - 18 x - 18 A B C D 15x
