, when a = 7
a+9
4a. k + 6 + s, when k = 10 and s = 9
3b.
, when a = 5
5
4b. 4r3 , when r = 2
B. Translating Phrases into Expressions:
1) Twelve more than five times a number.
2) Six times the sum of a number and four.
3) Eight subtracted from two times a number.
4) The quotient of one less than a number and twice a number.
C. Representing Real World Situations with Expressions: Include let statements.
1. Kalid ate g out of 14 gumdrops. Write an expression to represent the gumdrops he has left.
2. Gabe has t trading cards. Tony has 91 more trading cards than Gabe. Write an expression to show how
many cards Tony has.

to represent the total cost.
4. Jack has 4 times more pencils than David. David has 6 more pencils than Abbie. Write an expression to
show how many pencils Jack has if Abbie has p pencils.
D. Combining Like Terms and the Distributive Property:
E. Equivalent Expressions: Determine whether each set of expressions is equivalent or not.
1. y + y + y = 3y
2. 4x5 = 4 * x * x * x * x
4. 5y + 8 = 8 + y + y + y + y + y
7. 5(x +3) = 5x + 8
3. 4 - z = z – 4
5. n * n * n + 5 = n3 + 5
6. x + x + x + x= 4x
