A mathematical representation containing numbers, variables, and operation symbols; an expression does not include an equality or inequality symbol. Examples: o (5+2) – 27 ÷ 3 (arithmetic/numerical expression) o 2a + 3b (algebraic/symbolic expression) What is the order of operations? A specified sequence in which mathematical operations are expected to be performed; an arithmetic expression is evaluated by following these ordered steps: (1) simplify within grouping symbols such as parentheses or brackets, starting with the innermost (2) apply exponents – powers and roots (3) perform all multiplications and divisions in order from left to right (4) perform all additions and subtractions in order from left to right Examples: o Solve 4 + 6(5 – 2) ÷ 3 (Parenthesis first) 4 + 6(3) ÷ 3 (Multiply) 4 + 18 ÷ 3 (Divide) 4+6 (Add) 10 o Solve 36 – ([3 x 22] + 24) (Exponents within the parenthesis) 36 – ([3 x 4] + 24) (Multiplication within the parenthesis) 36 – ([12] + 24) (Addition within the parenthesis) 36 – (36) (Subtract) 0 What are operations? Procedures used to combine numbers, expressions, or polynomials into a single result Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division Exponents What is substitution? Substitution is when variables in a given expression or equation are replaced with designated values in order to evaluate the expression or equation. Examples: o If x = 3 solve x2 + 5 (Substitute 3 in for x) 2 3 +5 (Solve the exponent) 9+5 (Add) Study Guide – 7Math-Q2-V12008 14 o If x = 4 solve 3x2 – 2x + 10 3• 42 – 2 • 4 + 10 3 • 16 – 2 • 4 + 10 48 – 8 + 10 40 + 10 50 (Substitute 4 in for x) (Solve for the exponent) (Multiply) (Subtract) (Add) What are variables?

A way to write a mathematical expression using key words such as product, more than, and decreased by. What is an algebraic expression? A mathematical phrase that is written using one or more variables and constants, but which does not contain a relation symbol (<, >, ≤, ≥, =, ≠) Example: 3y + 6 What is a variable? A symbol used to represent a number or group of numbers in an expression or an equation. What is a constant? A quantity that does not change its value in a given expression or equation Example: In the expression 3s + 4, 3 and 4 are constants How do you translate a two-step verbal expression into an algebraic expression? All you need to do is translate each of the key words into their appropriate symbols. Examples: o Write an algebraic expression for the statement “the product of a number and seven, increased by 9.” The number is the unknown so pick any variable to represent the unknown number. The word product means multiplication. The word increased by means add. So, the product of a number and seven, increased by 9 becomes 7x + 9. o Write an algebraic expression for the statement “four less than half a number.” The number is the unknown so pick any variable to represent the unknown number. The words half of a number indicate multiplication of the number by ½. The words four less than indicate subtraction of 4. So, four less than half a number becomes ½x – 4. What is an equation? A mathematical sentence stating that two expressions are equal. How do I solve two-step equations? The goal of all equations is to isolate the variable, or get it alone. The first step in achieving that goal is to undo the addition or subtraction by using the inverse operation. The last step is to undo the multiplication or division by using the inverse operation. o What are inverse operations? An operation that is the opposite of, or undoes, another operation addition and subtraction are inverse operations multiplication and division are inverse operations. Examples: o Solve for x: 3x + 2 = 17 -2 -2 3x 15 3 3 x=5 o Solve for y: y 43 5 Study Guide – 7Math-Q2-V12008 +4 +4 5• y =7•5 5 y = 35 Practice Questions: Correct responses are marked with an asterisk (*) 1) Which of the following is an example of an equation? a) 4x + 2 b) 4x + 2 = 18 * c) 4x + 2 18 d) 4x + 2 ‹ 18 2) Translate the following into an algebraic expression: six added to the quotient of eight and a number, n. a) 6 + 8n b) 8 + 6n 8 6 * n n d) 6 8 c) 3) The cost of renting a snowmobile includes a $5 rental fee plus $20 per hour.

How do I read each of these symbols? < > ≤ ≥ ≠ - less than greater than less than or equal to greater than or equal to not equal to How do I solve a one-step inequality? The goal of solving a one-step inequality is to isolate the variable. To achieve the goal, undo the given operation by using the inverse operation. o addition and subtraction are inverse operations o multiplication and division are inverse operations Examples: O Solve for x: x + 5 > 7 -5 -5 x >2 O Solve for x: x – 4 < 8 o Solve for x: +4 +4 x < 12 3x ≥ 18 18 3x ≥ 3 3 x≥6 o Solve for x: x 5 2 x 2• ≤5•2 2 x ≤ 10 How do I graph an inequality? To graph an inequality first you draw a number line. Then you use an open or closed circle to plot the solution on the line. Finally, shade the line so that the values make the inequality true. Use an open circle (◦) when you use the greater than (>) and less than (<) symbols. Use a closed circle (•) when you use the greater than or equal to (≥) and less than or equal to (≤) symbols.

Central tendency is used to represent the middle of a data set. How do we measure central tendency? Measures of central tendency are mean, median, and mode. What is mean? The mean is the sum of the values divided by the number of values in the data set. What is median? The median is the middle value when the numbers are listed in numerical order. If there are two numbers in the middle, take the mean of the two numbers. What is mode? The mode is the value that occurs most often. Sometimes there is no mode or more than one mode. Example: Find the mean, median, and mode of 8, 3, 5, 4, 1, and 3. o Step 1: List in order: 1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 8 o Step 2: Find the mean. o Step 3: Find the median. o Step 4: Find the mode. 1 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 8 = 24 24 ÷ 6 = 4 (There are 6 numbers in the data set.) mean = 4 3+4=7 (The middle two numbers are 3 & 4.) 7÷2 = 3.5 median = 3.5 There are two number 3s. mode = 3 What is range? Range is the difference between the greatest and least number.

A bar graph can be used to display and compare data. You can use a double bar graph when comparing two related sets of data. How do I interpret a bar graph? Compare the bars first, then if needed find the corresponding number on the scale. Example: Use the bar graph to answer each question. a) Which language has the most native speakers? The bar for Mandarin is the longest, so Mandarin has the most native speakers. b) About how many more people speak Mandarin than speak Hindi? About 500 million more people speak Mandarin than speak Hindi. How do I make a double bar graph? The table shows the life expectancies of people in three Central American countries. Step 1: Choose a scale and interval for the vertical axis. Step 2: Draw a pair of bars for each country’s data. Use different colors to show males and females. Step 3: Label the axes and give the graph a title. Step 4: Make a key to show what each bar represents. What is a line graph? You use a line graph to show how data changes over a period of time. You can use a double line graph to show change over time for two sets of related data. How do you interpret a line graph? Find the data points and the corresponding number on the scale. Study Guide – 7Math-Q2-V12008 Example: Use the graph to answer the following questions. a) At what age did the kitten weigh 6 lbs? The kitten weighed 6 lbs at the age of 8 months b) Between what two months did the most growth occur? Between the 2nd and 4th months. How do I make a double line graph? The table shows the normal daily temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit in two Alaskan cities. Step 1: Choose a scale and interval for the vertical axis. Step 2: Plot a point for each temperature in Nome and connect the points. Step 3: Then, using a different color, plot a point for each temperature in Anchorage and connect the points. Step 4: Label the axes, give the graph a title, and make a key to show what each line represents. What is circle graph? A circle graph, also called a pie chart, shows how a set of data is divided into parts. The entire circle contains 100% of the data. Each sector, or slice, of the circle represents one part of the entire data set. How do I interpret a circle graph? Look at each sector to determine what percent of the graph each piece represents. Example: Use the circle graph to answer the following questions. a) Which group of CDs sold the most? Rock b) What percent of the CD sales are country? 27% Study Guide – 7Math-Q2-V12008 What is a histogram? A histogram is a bar graph that shows the frequency of data within equal intervals. There is no space between the bars in a histogram. How do I interpret a histogram? Compare the bars first, then if needed find the corresponding number on the scale. Example: Use the histogram above to answer the following questions. a) Which interval represents the greatest number of CDs? 11 – 15 b) Estimate how many people own 1 – 10 CDs? Approximately 55 What is a misleading graph? A data display that distorts information in order to persuade. How do I determine if a graph is misleading? Example: The above graph is misleading because while there is only a $.10 per minute difference, Company B’s cell phone makes it look like it would be twice the cost of Company A’s cell service. Example: Both bar graphs show the percent of people in California, Maryland, Michigan, and Washington who use seat belts. Which graph could be misleading? Why? Study Guide – 7Math-Q2-V12008 Graph B could be misleading. Because the vertical axis on graph B is broken, it appears that the percent of people in California who wear seat belts is twice as great as the percent in Michigan. In fact, it is only 5% greater. People might conclude from graph B that the percent of people in California who wear seat belts is much greater than the percents in the other states. Practice Questions: Correct responses are marked with an asterisk (*) 1) Why is the graph to the right misleading? a) The distances are incorrect. b) The bars are mislabeled. c) The bars are too tall. d) The intervals on the vertical axis are not equal. * 2) The double-bar graph shows the win-loss records for the Carolina Panthers football team in the years 1998-2004.
