TRANSCRIPT
Expressions vs. Equations
• 4x + 3 -2x and 3x + 31 = 32
• An expression is an operation with variables or numbers but no equal sign.– Example: 4x +5 or 4(x+5) ÷ 7
• An equation is an operation with variables or numbers with an equal sign.– Example: 4x +5 = 30 or 4(x+5) ÷ 7 = -20

Writing Equations from Word Problems
• All about solving problems
• Need for: budgeting, running a business, making decisions about using materials, saving money, or spending time
Constant/ Starting amount
Something you pay or do one time, the amount where you start
Examples: Flat fees, starting amounts, upfront costs, down payments, current savings, $_ off coupons, how much money you have
Rate of Change the amount or cost it increases or decreases by,
depending on the variable [how much you buy, how many hours you work, etc.]
***multiply by the variable***Examples: Price per item, miles per hour, hourly
wage, percent (%) of something, tax, tip, commission, etc.
Total Cost/AmountTotal Cost/Amount: the total cost or amount
Examples: Total cost, total amount earned, total budget, total savings, etc.
Definitions
Fixed Cost/Amount: a cost or amount that doesn’t change no matter what
Variable Cost/Amount: a cost or amount that changes depending on what you do to the variable
Total Cost/Amount: the total amount or final result
