Writing Algebraic Expressions

Group workProblem: Ms. Jensen likes to divide her class into groups of 2. Use mathematical symbols to represent all the students in her class.

Solution: Let g represent the number of groups in Ms. Jensen's class.

Then 2 · g, or 2g can represent "g groups of 2 students".

In the problem above, the variable g represents the number of groups in Ms. Jensen's class. A variable is a symbol used to represent a number in an expression or an equation. The value of this number can vary (change). Let's look at an example in which we use a variable.

Example 1: Write each phrase as a mathematical expression.

PhraseExpression

the sum of nine and eight9 + 8

the sum of nine and a number x9 + x

The expression 9 + 8 represents a single number (17). This expression is a numerical expression, (also called an arithmetic expression). The expression 9 + x represents a value that can change. If x is 2, then the expression 9 + x has a value of 11. If x is 6, then the expression has a value of 15. So 9 + x is an algebraic expression. In the next few examples, we will be working solely with algebraic expressions.

Example 2: Write each phrase as an algebraic expression.

PhraseExpression

nine increased by a number x9 + x

fourteen decreased by a number p14 - p

seven less than a number tt - 7

the product of 9 and a number n9 · n   or   9n

thirty-two divided by a number y32 ÷ y   or    

In Example 2, each algebraic expression consisted of one number, one operation and one variable. Let's look at an example in which the expression consists of more than one number and/or operation.

Example 3: Write each phrase as an algebraic expression using the variable n.

PhraseExpression

five more than twice a number2n + 5

the product of a number and 66n

seven divided by twice a number7 ÷ 2n   or    

three times a number decreased by 113n - 11

bonusExample 4: A small company has $1000 to distribute to its employees as a bonus. How much money will each employee get?

Solution: Let e represent the number of employees in the company. The amount of money each employee will get is represented by the following algebraic expression:

electricianExample 5: An electrician charges $45 per hour and spends $20 a day on gasoline. Write an algebraic expression to represent his earnings for one day.

Solution: Let x represent the number of hours the electrician works in one day. The electrician's earnings can be represented by the following algebraic expression:

Solution: 45x - 20
