  1. Bellwork Check yourself today – are you compliant with the dress code? Do you have all materials for class? Are you prepared to learn? Do you have your student information sheet out and ready to turn in? Answer these 3 questions: 1) What did you most like about your 1st day at LSHS? 2) What did you least like about your 1st day at LSHS? 3) What are you most concerned about this school year?

  2. Vocabulary Variable – a letter or symbol that represents an unknown quantity Algebraic Expression – a mathematical expression that consists of variables, numbers, and operations.

  3. Writing Algebraic Expressions Objective: Be able to write an algebraic expression for a word phrase or write a word phrase for an expression.

  4. Although they are closely related, a Great Dane weighs about 40 times as much as a Chihuahua. An expression for the weight of the Great Dane could be 40c, where c is the weight of the Chihuahua. When solving real-world problems, you will need to translate words, or verbal expressions, into algebraic expressions.

  5. In order to translate a word phrase into an algebraic expression, we must first know some key word phrases for the basic operations.

  6. Draw a table:

  7. Addition Phrases: • More than • Increase by • Greater than • Add • Total • Plus • Sum

  8. Subtraction Phrases: • Decreased by • Difference between • Take Away • Less • Subtract • Less than* • Subtract from*

  9. Multiplication Phrases: • Product • Times • Multiply • Of • Twice or double • Triple

  10. Division Phrases: • Quotient • Divide • Divided by • Split equally

  11. Remember • Multiplication expressions should be written in side-by-side form, with the number always in front of the variable. • 3a 2t 1.5c 0.4f

  12. Remember • Division expressions should be written using the fraction bar instead of the traditional division sign.

  13. Examples • Addition phrases: • 3 more than x • the sum of 10 and a number c • a number n increased by 4.5

  14. Examples • Subtraction phrases: • a number t decreased by 4 • the difference between 10 and a number y • 6 less than a number z

  15. Examples • Multiplication phrases: • the product of 3 and a number t • twice the number x • 4.2 times a number e

  16. Examples • Division phrases: • the quotient of 25 and a number b • the number y divided by 2 • 2.5 divide g
