Evaluating Variable Expressions Worksheet

                    Lesson 1

                                 

                                                            Problem:                   Evaluate the following for r = 5, s = 4

 

(6s + 2) - (5r - 5)

 

                                                            Solution                    Putting the value of r = 5, s = 4 in the above expression

Step 1: 

                                  

                                                            Solution                    (6s+2)-(5r-5) = (6x4+2)-(5x5-5) = 26 - 20

Step 2:                        

 

Solution                    Subtract 26 and 20, i.e. 26 - 20 = 6

Step 3:     

        

Solution                    The answer is:  6

Step 4:                                                          

                                                            Complete                                                    

 

                                                             Try two practice problems:  

 

                                                                                               Evaluate the following for r=2, s=4, t=2

 

A.  (4s+2)-(2r-5)

 

B. – (4s-r-s-4t)-(3s—r)
