Extra Practice 8: Simplifying Expressions and Order of Operations

Where did all these variables come from, anyway? The previous lessons in the series ask learners to solve multi-step equations using the distributive property, combining like terms, and using inverse operations. Now scholars solve...

Lets keep the system working and show learners the three ways to solve linear systems of equations. Each method includes step-by-step instructions to work their way through the problem. The same problem is used for each method to show...

Need to prep your science learners in math? Here is a resource that serves as a review guide to support your scientists with the math they need to be successful in chemistry. Comes with basic algebraic problems and a review of...

See how well learners know how to solve expressions using the order of operations. Use this packet that includes 28 task cards that requires pupils to evaluate expressions with variables, solve expressions using the correct...

Now there are parentheses in these equations? As the lessons continue in this series, equations get progressively more complex. Eighth graders solve equations by applying the distributive property before using inverse operations. 

When guess and check gets old, it's time to start graphing! An instructive lesson explains how to solve a system of linear equations using graphing. Equations are in both slope-intercepts and standard form. 

Classmates solve 18 different problems that are mostly word problems that apply algebraic expressions. They draw different combinations of masses on a scale that would balance. They also simplify expressions and solve for x in a number...
