Simplify the Expressions
(Add the terms that share a variable, the operation sign directly in front of the term is its sign)
*Distribute the – to all terms in 2nd ( )

Properties
Identify the mathematical property that each expression represents by writing C for commutative property, A for Associative
Property, I for identity property and D for distributive property.
_A_1. c+(d +e) = d +(c + e)
_I__2. h + 0 = h
_C_3. jk = kj
_C_4. a + (b + c) = (b+c) +a
__D__5.
__C__6.
__D__7.
__I__ 8.
9(k + 9) = 9k + 81
8+4=4+8
4(3x + 7)= 12x + 28
1g=g
Distributive Property
Use the distributive property to simplify the expressions. (Multiply the number on the outside by all terms inside the
parenthesis) *Remember the sign in front belongs to the term, follow integer rules!
1. -3(2x + 6)
2. 2(-5x + 4 )
-6x -18
-10x + 8
3. -2( -6x – 3y + 2)
12x +6y -4
4. 5(-2x – y + 7)
-10x -5y + 35
Factor the following equations
(Find the greatest common factor for the terms, divide both terms by the GCF, and write the expression using
distributive property)
1.
-6x + 32
2. - 9y – 33
2(-3x + 16) or -2(3x- 16)
3(-3y -11) or -3(3y + 11)

1. A bike rental shop charges a $25 dollar deposit for renting a bike and $4 additional dollars for each day. Write
an expression to represent the cost of renting a bike for d days.
4d + 25
2. A car salesman’s will receive a 15% bonus on his s salary in the month of January. Write an expression to show
how much he will get paid in January.
s + .15s = 1.15s
Extended response (To earn full credit on an extended response question, make sure to explain each step clearly and
in complete sentences. Use mathematical vocabulary and double check for accuracy. Reread you explanation to make
sure that a person who may be unfamiliar with the concept could follow your explanation.)
Explain how to simplify an expression by combining like terms. Use the expression below to show the process. Be
sure to clearly explain each step in detail.
-4x + 2y – 6x + 8 – 10 – 5y = -10x -3y - 2
To combine like terms you must add terms that share a variable. You must remember that the sign of the term is
the sign located directly in front of the term. First I combined the coefficients, -4x and -6x which equals -10x. I
then combined +2y and -5y which equals -3y. You must remember to follow the integer rules when combining
terms. Lastly I added the constants +8 and -10 which equals -2. After combining the like terms, you put all the
simplified terms together which resulted in the simplified expression -10x – 3y -2 .
Write an equation for the real world scenario and then solve. A field trip costs $16.00 per student s and an
additional $200 for bus transportation. If 54 students are going on the trip, taking 1 bus, how much will the trip
cost?
16s + 200
16(54) + 200=$ 1064
