Variables stand for unknown values.
The number sentence 24 + n means “the sum of 24 and a number.” The unknown number is a variable that is expressed by a letter, n.
Answer Terms
Addition → Sum
Subtraction → Difference
Multiplication → Product
Division → Quotient

Remember that you can use any letter as a variable that stands for an unknown value.

Write the phrases as algebraic expressions.

The properties of operations help you evaluate expressions.

Evaluate the expression: 4 + 8 + 3 + 2
Following properties of operations:
4 + 8 + 3 + 2 = 4 + 3 + 8 + 2 = 7 + 10 = 17

Remember that when the properties of operations are not followed, numerical expressions are computed incorrectly.

The order of operations helps you get the correct answer. The order of operations rules are:
Step 1: Compute inside parentheses.
Step 2: Evaluate terms with exponents.
Step 3: Multiply and divide from left to right.
Step 4: Add and subtract from left to right.

Evaluate 8 + 6 × 9 – 4 ÷ 2.
First, multiply and divide. 8 + 54 – 2
Then, add and subtract. 60

Remember that when the order of operations rules are followed, it helps you get the correct answer.

Use parentheses to make each sentence true.

Use the Distributive Property to evaluate mentally.
8(42)
Break the numbers apart to find numbers that
are easier to multiply mentally.
8(40 + 2)
Apply the Distributive Property.
8(40) + 8(2)
Multiply the separate sections. Add the products.
320 + 16 = 336

Remember that the Distributive Property says that multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying each addend by the number and adding the products.

Use the Distributive Property to evaluate mentally.

Set G, pages 44–45

You can write an algebraic expression that explains an input/output relationship. If x is 4, how can you express 9?

Try: 2x + 1 = 9
See if that works for the other input values.
2 × 8 + 1 = 17
2 × 11 + 1 = 23
Yes, it works!

Remember that input/ output tables can help you see patterns in expressions.

Use this input/ output table for 1 and 2.
