Grade: 7-a Lesson: S2-L1

Explanation: The best way to understand algebra is by looking at some examples. Take turns and read each example for easy understanding.

Examples:

1. Determine the value of expression \$100/(6b + 5) - 5\$ when b = 5.

Step 1a

Given expression.

Explanation: Given expression \$100/(6b + 5) - 5\$ is an algebraic expression in variable b and value of b = 5.

Step 1b

Substitute the value of variable

Explanation: Substitute the value of variable b = 5 in the expression.

\$100/(6b + 5) - 5\$

\$=> 100/(6(5) + 5) - 5\$

Step 1c

Perform the opreartions among the terms to determine the value of expression.

Explanation: Perform operations among the terms

\$=> 100/(30 + 5) - 5\$

\$=> 100/35 - 5\$

\$=> (100 - 175)/35 \$

\$=> - 75/35 \$

Step 1d

Convert the fraction into it’s lowest form.

Explanation: Divide numerator and denominator with 5 (or) do cancellation

\$=> - cancel(75)^(15)/cancel35^7\$

\$=> - 15/7\$
