This resource helps with understanding the concept of variables, constants, terms, and coefficients of any algebraic expression. Learn how to simplify algebraic expressions using algebraic formulas and the different types of expressions.

Like terms have the same degree variable or are constants. When solving an equation or inequality, like terms must be combined. Knowledge of variable expressions and equations assists in solving problems involving logic.

This lesson plan walks students through the process of simplifying polynomials by combining like terms. It gives an assessment and ideas for remediation and extension as well as ways to manage behavior problems and reluctant learners.

The laws of exponents are put to action in several examples. The examples demonstrate how to simplify expressions that contain both coefficients and variables.

Given some information about several unknown variables, rewrite and simplify the structure of an expression containing those variables. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a...
