Key Topics to Revise

1

1. Framing Algebraic Expressions

  • An algebraic expression uses variables (like x, y, z) and constants (like 2, 5) with mathematical operations (+, −, ×, ÷).
  • Words like 'sum', 'difference', 'product', and 'quotient' help identify the operation to use.
  • The word 'of' often means multiplication, especially with fractions.
2

2. Framing and Using Formulas

  • A formula is an equation that shows the relationship between different quantities.
  • Formulas are used in real-life situations like calculating wages, area, or temperature.
  • You can substitute known values into a formula to find unknown values.
3

3. Substitution in Algebraic Expressions

  • Substitution means replacing variables with their given numerical values.
  • Always use brackets when substituting negative numbers or fractions.
  • Follow the BODMAS rule (Brackets, Orders, Division/Multiplication, Addition/Subtraction) while simplifying.
4

4. Solving Linear Equations

  • A linear equation has a variable with power 1 and an '=' sign.
  • Solving means finding the value of the variable that makes the equation true.
  • We use balancing rules: whatever we do to one side, we do to the other.
