SIMPLIFYING ALGEBRA

1. 3 + x + 3 = ___________________________

2. 5 + x + 9 = ___________________________ REMINDER

1. Group the same

3. 2x + 3 + 6x = ___________________________
unknowns.
2. Group all whole
4. 4x - 2x + 9 = ___________________________
numbers together.
3. DO NOT MIX whole
5. 7x + 3 + 2x + 9 = ___________________________
numbers and
unknowns.
6. 6y + 7 - 4y = ___________________________
4. Be careful with the
symbols.
7. 2y + y + 3 + 2 = ___________________________
5. Check your answers.
8. 2x + 3 + 2y = ___________________________

9. 3x + 6y - 2x + 9 = ___________________________

10. 7x + 4 + 2y - 3y = ___________________________ /10

EVALUATING ALGEBRA

1. 8x + 1 when x=2 = Example:

2. 7x + 2 when x=6 = 5y + 4 when y = 4

3. x + 10 when x=7 =
5(4) + 4 = 24
4. 6x + 5 when x=1 = 5 x 4 + 4 = 20

Answer = 20
5. 8x + 5 when x=1 =

6. 8x + 3 when x=5 =

7. 6y – 6 when y=5 =

8. 2y – 10 when y=8 =

9. y + 9 when y=6 =

6 y−6
10. – 5 when y = 8 =
7
