  1. Pre-Algebra Chapter 1 Algebraic Expressions and Integers

  2. Section 1-1 Variables and Expressions is a letter or a symbol that replaces a number. • Variable • Variableexpression is a mathematical phrase that uses variable, numbers and operation symbols. • Numerical expression is a mathematical phrase that uses numbers and operation symbols.

  3. Examples Identify each expression as a numerical expression or a variable expression. For a variable expression, name the variable. • 7 x 3 • 8 + m • x + y • 27/9 • 5m • k

  4. Keywords

  5. 1-2 The Order of Operations Remember order of operation by the following saying: Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally

  6. Examples Simplify the following numerical expressions using the order of operations. a. 8-2(2) b. 12/3-1(2)+1 c. 20-3[(5+2)-1]

  7. 1-3 Writing and Evaluating Expressions

  8. 1-4 Integers and Absolute Value • Numbers that are the same distance from zero on a number line but in opposite directions are called opposites. • Integers are the set of whole numbers and their opposites. • A number’s distance from zero on a number line is called its absolute value.

  9. 1-5 Adding Integers When adding opposites, the sum is zero

  10. Rules for Adding Integers • The sum of two positive integers is positive. The sum of two negative integers is negative. • Same Signs: • Different Signs: To add two integers with signs, find the difference of their absolute values. The sum has the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.
