ALGEBRAThe science of equations/ expression.

The letters used in algebra is known as literal or variable.

Note: 1x1 can be written as x

–1xy can be written as –xy

Exercise1.Form Algebraic expressions

1. 7 times a number x2. 4 times a number x minus 5

3. The sum of two numbers x and y divided by another number p

4. Half of a number y5. Double the product of the numbers x,y and z.

6. Double the product of a and b and divide by 5

7. 3 times a number minus 4 times a number y.

8. Ali bought p pencils for Rf. 3 each and q pens for Rf. 7 each. What is the total cost?

9. 7ab times twice xy

SIMPLIFICATION OF ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION. Simplifying like terms To multiply and divide algebraic expression follow the indices rule. You can add and subtract only like terms. That is, the variables and their exponents should be

same.

Eg: a) 3ab + 2ab = 5ab but 3ab +2b cannot be added togetherb) 3a2 – 2a2 = a2

3a – 2a2 cannot be added together
