Question

Directions: Write the written form of the following expressions given in symbolic form. After you find the symbolic form, simplify each expression.

1. 4(3x + 2) – 9
2. √144 – (62 –x)
3. (28 ÷ 4) – (x + 7)
4. x3 – 4y - (6 + 2)
5. (64 ÷ 8) – (x • 6)
6.72 (4-15x)
7. 4(√144 + 93)-y
8.54 + 7y – (8 + 9x)

Answer 1

To write the written form of the expressions given in symbolic form and simplify them, follow the steps of distributing, combining like terms, and simplifying each expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the written form of the expressions given in symbolic form and simplify them, you can follow the following steps:

1. For example, the symbolic form of 4(3x + 2) – 9 is written as "Four times the quantity three x plus two minus nine." To simplify, distribute the 4 to the terms inside the parentheses, combine like terms, and then subtract 9.
2. For example, the symbolic form of √144 – (62 –x) is written as "The square root of 144 minus the quantity 62 minus x." To simplify, calculate the square root of 144, simplify the expression inside the parentheses, and then subtract.
3. Continue this process for each of the expressions given.
