Study Notes
Algebraic Expressions Overview
- Algebraic expressions translate verbal phrases into mathematical expressions.
- Understanding these translations is crucial for solving algebraic problems.
Quotient Expressions
- "The quotient of 18 and a number" → ( \frac{18}{x} )
- "Seven divided by the sum of a number and two" → ( \frac{7}{x + 2} )
- "Seven more than the quotient of ten and a number" → ( 7 + \frac{10}{n} )
Addition and Subtraction in Expressions
- "Five more than twice a number" → ( 2x + 5 )
- "Eleven less than three times a number" → ( 3x - 11 )
- "Nine less than the product of a number and four" → ( 4x - 9 )
- "Five less than twice a number" → ( 2x - 5 )
- "The difference between a number and seven" → ( x - 7 )
Multiplication and Products
- "Three times a number, increased by seventeen" → ( 3x + 17 )
- "The product of nine and a number decreased by six" → ( 9x - 6 )
- "Three times the difference of a number and seven" → ( 3(x - 7) )
- "The product of a number and three plus seven" → ( 3x + 7 )
- "The product of a number and three" → ( 3x )
Advanced Expressions
- "Ten thousand times the sum of a number and seven hundred" → ( 10000(x + 700) )
- "Three-fourths of a number decreased by eight" → ( \frac{3}{4}x - 8 )
Summary
- Mastering these translations allows for effective manipulation and solution of algebraic expressions, forming a foundation for advanced math concepts.
