5 * (-2)
-10
4x + 7
What is the variable in the expression above?
x
What terms below can you combine to simplify the expression?
8x - 4 + 6 - 4x
8x - 4x and -4+6
How would you combine like terms across an equals sign?
2y + 1 = 7 - y
1. Add y to both sides of the equation
2. Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation
3. Answer: 3y = 6
x - 3 = 10
x = 13
= 7 - (-2)
-9x -4
What is the constant in the expression above?
-4
What terms would you combine in the expression below?
5y - 5 + y - 2
5y + y and -5 - 2
What would be your first step in combining like terms?5h + 3 = 2h - 7
Subtract 2h from both sides.
x - 3 = -5
x = -2
-12 divided by -6
2
9 + 5m
What is the constant in the expression above?
9
Combine the like terms to simplify the expression below...
5y + y - 4 - 3
6y - 7
8j - j - 3= 4j + 4
Combine 8j - j.
x + 13 = 20
x = 7
= -4 + 2
-2
-2 + 7m
What is the variable in the expression above?
m
Simplify the Expression:
-5m + 3 -2m -4
-7m - 1
Combine like terms in the equation.
-7y + 2 = - 4 - 2y
-5y = -6 or 5y = 6
12 * x = -24
x = -2
= -8 - 7
-15
-6x + 4
What is the coefficient of the expression above?
-6
5d + 7 - 6m + 3d - 7m - 5
8d - 13m + 2
Combine the like terms, simplifying the equation.
4m - 3 = 6 - 2m
6m = 9
x/3 = 4
x = 12
