Grade: 7-a Lesson: S2-L4

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 \$50/(n^2) + 3\$ when n = 2.

Step 1a

Given expression.

Explanation: Given expression \$50/(n^2) + 3\$ is an algebraic expression in variable n and value of n = 2.

Step 1b

Substitute the value of variable

Explanation: Substitute the value of variable n = 2 in the expression.

\$50/(n^2) + 3\$

\$=> 50/(2^2) + 3\$

Step 1c

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

Explanation: Perform operations among the terms

\$=> 50/4 + 3\$

\$=> (50 + 12)/4 \$

\$=> 62/4 \$

Step 1d

Convert the fraction into it’s lowest form.

Explanation: Divide numerator and denominator with 2 (or) do cancellation

\$=> cancel(62)^(31)/cancel4^2\$

\$=> 31/2\$
