8 +4 = 7 +5
9 +15 = 24
7 x 6 = 14 X 3
= 20

3. Warm up (Riddle from Braingle)
Diophantus was a Greek mathematician who lived in the third century. He was one of the first mathematicians to use algebraic symbols. Most of what is known about Diophantus's life comes from an algebraic riddle from around the early sixth century. The riddle states: Diophantus's youth lasted one sixth of his life. He grew a beard after one twelfth more. After one seventh more of his life, he married. 5 years later, he and his wife had a son. The son lived exactly one half as long as his father, and Diophantus died four years after his son. How many years did Diophantus live ?

4. Inverse Operation Addition undoes subtraction,
Division undoes multiplication

5. Solving Equation
X +24 = 42
1.5 + c = 48
3/7 + y = 1 1/7

6. Combining Like terms
Algebraic expression contains terms. Example : 4y + 2z + 7y contains the terms 4y, 2z and 7y.
Terms with same variable can be combined.

7. Simplify
5y + 13y
4 + 7y + 20
n + Π+ Π + 2n
