Algebraic expressions practice e unit 6 lesson 11

1 answer

It looks like you're looking for practice related to algebraic expressions, specifically from a unit and lesson within a curriculum, potentially from an educational platform like Eureka Math or EngageNY. While I don't have access to specific lesson content, I can help you with general algebraic expression practice problems and concepts that might be covered in such a lesson. Here are some practice problems and explanations that could be relevant to this topic:

Algebraic Expressions Practice Problems:

  1. Simplify the expression: \[ 3x + 5x - 2 + 4 \]

  2. Combine like terms: \[ 7a - 3b + 2a + 10 - 5b \]

  3. Evaluate the expression when \( x = 3 \): \[ 2x^2 - 4x + 7 \]

  4. Expand the expression: \[ (x + 3)(x - 2) \]

  5. Factor the following expression: \[ x^2 + 5x + 6 \]

  6. Write an algebraic expression for the following scenario: "Three times a number decreased by four."

  7. If \( y = 2x + 1 \), find y when \( x = 4 \).

Answers and Explanations:

  1. Simplify: \[ 3x + 5x - 2 + 4 = 8x + 2 \]

  2. Combine like terms: \[ 7a + 2a - 3b - 5b + 10 = 9a - 8b + 10 \]

  3. Evaluate: \[ 2(3)^2 - 4(3) + 7 = 2(9) - 12 + 7 = 18 - 12 + 7 = 13 \]

  4. Expand: \[ (x + 3)(x - 2) = x^2 - 2x + 3x - 6 = x^2 + x - 6 \]

  5. Factor: \[ x^2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3) \]

  6. Algebraic expression: If we let the unknown number be \( n \), then the expression is: \[ 3n - 4 \]

  7. Find y: \[ y = 2(4) + 1 = 8 + 1 = 9 \]

Tips for Working with Algebraic Expressions:

  • Combine like terms by grouping similar variables together.
  • Use distributive property to expand and factor expressions.
  • Evaluate expressions by substituting given values for variables and calculating.
  • Practice writing expressions for word problems to reinforce the relationship between algebra and real-life situations.
