Applying properties of operations encourages critical and logical thinking in mathematics and develops these thinking skills for use in the future. In Mathmalian Logic, Lumi and Dalek are traveling to Earth which will be their new home. They are planning on purchasing two adjacent lots and want to make sure they are not overpaying. When discussing how to determine the cost, they disagree over the method to use to first determine the total area of the lots. The data provided are an aerial shot of the lots and a still image of Lumi and Dalek with conversation bubbles stating each of their methods.

Clicker QuizLaunch the Clicker Quiz, whole-class.

Gladys: Remind students that order of op-erations must still be followed, even when variables are involved.

Kevin: Encourage students to pay close attention to their signs when simplifying expressions, especially when they are dis-tributing a negative factor. Students should double-check their work and/or confirm their answers with a classmate or two.

Megan: As you model examples, help stu-dents remain aware of the usefulness of the properties of operations by continuing to indicate when a property is applied, even if it is subtle.

MATHMALIAN LOGICWhose method is correct and why?

Mathmalians Lumi and Dalek are working to purchase two lots on Earth. They have just decided on their lots and now wish to calculate the total cost of the lots. The price per yard is p dollars. As always, they each have a diff erent idea on how to calculate the cost.

Lumi wants to use the following method to determine total cost: 70(x + y)p.

Dalek wants to use the following method to determine total cost: 70xp + 70yp.

Determine whose method is correct and explain your reasoning

7.EE.A.1

Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coeffi cients.

APPLYING THE STANDARD

Simplify each expression. Combine all like terms when possible.1)

For which value of m would Expression 2 be equivalent to Expression 1?2)

Circle the expressions that are factors of 35xy – 15xy + 25xyz.

3)

Add 8 to n, triple the result, then subtract one from that result.

a)

Determine if these two expressions are equivalent. Explain your reasoning.c)

Add 8 to n, subtract the result from 1, then triple that result.

b)Write a mathematical expression for each verbal description.5)

Write an equivalent expression for the following: 3(2x – 3) + 4(3x + 2)
