The properties of the real numbers are used also with algebraic
expressions.
Term a single number or the product of a number and one or
more variables raised to powers.
Example
Example
Like Terms Two terms containing the same variables with the
same powers
Example
Example
2x + 5x = (2+5)x
= 7x
Distributive Property
Add 2 and 5
Example
4(7x) = (4(7))x
multiplication
= (28)x
= 28x
Associative property of
Multiplying 7 and 4
Example
2(3 (4)) = 6 (8)
Do not divide a number into just one term of a sum.
Example
(-1)(6) = -6 and
(-1)(-15) = 15.
Example
(-1)x = -x
or
-1(a+2) = -(a+2).

Notice that the coefficient of the middle term is the sum of a and
b and that the last term is the product of a and b. These two
relationships can be used to factor trinomials
