Objective
The student will be able to:
translate verbal expressions into
math expressions and vice versa.
SOL: A.1
What is the area of a rectangle?
Length times Width
If the length is 3 meters and the width is 2
meters, what is the area?
A=LxW
A = 3 x 2 = 6 meters2
A, L and W are the variables. It is any
letter that represents an unknown number.
An algebraic expression
contains:
1) one or more numbers or variables, and
2) one or more arithmetic operations.
Examples:
x-3
3 • 2n
4
1
m

We are not going to use the multiplication symbol
any more. Why?
Division, on the other hand, is
written as:

2•2=4
23
2•2•2=8
2n7
We can’t evaluate because we don’t
know what n equals to!!
Is 35 the same as 53?
Evaluate each and find out!
35 = 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 • 3 = 243
53 = 5 • 5 • 5 = 125
243 ≠ 125
They are not the same!
