This document provides an algebra lesson on writing and solving equations. It begins by defining algebraic expressions and equations. An example shows writing an expression for "three more than four times a number." Steps are given for solving equations algebraically, including an example of solving the equation "Three more than two times a number is 4" for the number. The document concludes with class activities involving solving simple equations and writing an equation for a word problem.

- 1. ALGEBRA GRADE : 8 UNIT : 1 Initials & Surname: T.G Mabodla student no. 216044938 Link: https://www.slideshare.net/ThapeloMabodla
- 2. LESSON OBJECTIVES At the end of the lesson learners should be able to: Read, write and solve equations.
- 3. Writingexpressionsandequations We use a letter such as “x” or “n” to represent a number We can write an algebraic expression to represent a word statement for example, a “number plus five” can be written as “ n+5 When we write an algebraic expression as equal to a number or another expression , we have an equation. For example: n+5=8
- 4. Example 1 Write an algebraic expression for this statement: Three more than four times a number Solution: let “x” represent the number. then four times a number is 4x. three more than 4x is: 4x+3 or 3+4x
- 5. Solving equation algebraically Let us look at how to solve equations algebraically. EXAMPLE Three more than two times a number is 4. What is the number? STEP1: write an equation>> let the number be n. then two times a number is 2n three more than two times a number is: 3 + 2n the equation is: 3 + 2n = 4
- 6. continue….. Step 2: Solve the Equation 3 + 2n = 4 3 + 2n – 3 = 4 – 3 to isolate 2n, subtract 3 from each side 2n = 1 2n/2 = 1/2 divide each side by 2. n = ½
- 7. continue… Step 3: verify the solution substitute n = 1/2 into 3 + 2n = 4 LHS = 3 + 2n RHS = 4 = 3 + 2(1/2) = 3 + 1 = 4 THEREFORE: n = 1/2 is correct because RHS = LHS.
- 8. NOWYOU TRY THISONE ! Work with a partner. Solve this problem My Mother’s age is 4 more than 2 times my Brother’s age. My mother is 46 years old. How Old is my Brother??
- 9. conclusion
- 10. class activity 1.Solve each equation. a) 2x = 3 b) 3x = 2 c) 5x = 12 2. Solve each equation then verify the solution. a) 5 + 2m = 6 b) 7 = 1 + 3n 3. Write, then solve an equation to solve this question. Ten more than three times a number is 25. what is the number??
