ALGEBRAALGEBRA is the process of moving values from is the process of moving values from one side of equation to the other without changing one side of equation to the other without changing
the equality. the equality. KEEP IT BALANCED !KEEP IT BALANCED !
If you change one side of an equation, If you change one side of an equation, you must change the other side you must change the other side
equally.equally. For example, if x = y, then x + 1 = y + 1 For example, if x = y, then x + 1 = y + 1
Algebraic ExpressionsAlgebraic Expressions
The Study of Algebra involves numbers and operations.
A Numerical Expression contains one of more numbers and one or more operations: 12 7.6 5 + 9 14 – 7 x 2
In Algebra, letters are often used to represent numbers. These letters are called Variables.
An Algebraic Expression contains one of more variables and one or more operations: 5n 4n − 6 3y (2)
To Evaluate an Expression replace each variable with a number to find a numerical value.
Example 1: Evaluate 5n where n = 6, thus So, 5 (6) = 30
Example 2: Evaluate 2xy for x = 4 and y = 3, thus 2 (x) (y) = 2 (4) (3) = 24

Grouping SymbolsGrouping Symbols
Grouping Symbols
Parentheses ( ) and brackets [ ] are called Grouping Symbols. The rule is to do operations within grouping symbols first.
Note: a multiplication symbol may be omitted when it occurs next to a grouping symbol.

Example 1 3 ● (5 + 2) = 3 (5 + 2) = 3 (7) = 21
If there is more than one set of grouping symbols, operate within the innermost symbols first.
Example 2: 5[ 8 + (7 – 3)] = 5 [8 + 4] = 5 [12] = 60

Exponents and Grouping SymbolsExponents and Grouping Symbols
The exponent outside a grouping symbol differs from one where there is no grouping symbol.

4x3 differs from (4x)3 because the exponent with a grouping symbol raises each factor to that power. In this case (4x)3 = 43 x3 = 64x3

Whole numbers = 0, 1, 2, 3 …
Integers = …, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 …
Rational numbers = numbers such as 3/4 , 1/3, -4/1 that can be written as a ratio of the two integers. When written as decimals, rational numbers terminate or repeat, 3/4 = 0.75, 1/3 = 0.333…
Irrational numbers = real numbers that are NOT rational, such as, and , When written as decimals, irrational numbers neither terminate or repeat.
A Graph of a number is a point on a number line that corresponds to a real number
The number that corresponds to a point on a number line is the Coordinate of the point.

A variable is a letter used to represent one or more numbers. Any number used to replace variable is a value of the variable. An expression involving variables is called an algebraic expression. The value of the expression is the result when you evaluate the expression by replacing the variables with numbers.
An expression that represents a real-life situation is a mathematical model. See page 12.

Solving for variable on one side [by isolating the variable on one side of equation ]
Example 1: 3 x + 9 = 15 7 3 x + 9 - 9 = 15 - 9 7 [ subtract 9 from both sides to eliminate the other term ] 3 x = 6 7
7 • 3 x = 7 • 63 7 [ multiply both sides by 7/3, the reciprocal of 3/7, to get x by
itself]x = 14
Example 2: 5 n + 11 = 7 n – 9 - 5 n - 5 n [ subtract 5 n from both sides to get the variable on one side ]
11 = 2 n – 9 + 9 + 9 [ add 9 to both sides to get rid of the other term with the
variable ]
20 = 2 n 2 2 [ divide both sides by 2 to get the variable n by itself on one

Solve : 7 x – 3 y = 8 for the variable y.
7 x – 3 y = 8 - 7 x - 7 x [ subtract 7 x from both sides to get rid of the other term ]
– 3 y = 8 – 7 x – 3 – 3 – 3 [divide both sides by – 3 to get the variable x by itself on one side ]
y = – 8 + 7 x 3 3
Calculating the value of a variable
Solve: x + x y = 1 when x = – 1 and x = 3
x + x y = 1 [ first solve for y so that when you replace x with – 1 and 3, you also solve for y ] - x - x [ subtract x from both sides to get rid of the other term without y in it ]
x y = 1 – x x x [divide by x to get y by itself ]
y = 1 – x when x = - 1, then y = - 2 and when x = 3, then y = - 2/3 x
