Overview

In this chapter, we learn how to convert everyday statements into mathematical expressions using letters (called variables) to represent unknown numbers. This helps us solve real-life problems using algebra. We also learn how to substitute values into expressions and solve simple equations step by s

Key Concepts

This means writing a statement using

This means writing a statement using variables and mathematical operations. For example, 'the sum of x and 8' is written as x + 8.

Replacing variables in an expression

Replacing variables in an expression with their given values to find the result. For example, if x = 3 in 2x + 5, then 2(3) + 5 = 11.

An equation where the highest power

An equation where the highest power of the variable is 1. For example, x + 5 = 12. We solve it to find the value of the variable.

We can add

We can add, subtract, multiply, or divide both sides of an equation by the same number to keep it balanced and find the unknown value.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand how to write statements as algebraic expressions
  • Learn to form formulas from word problems
