Evaluating Algebraic Expressions

Mrs. Feld introduces evaluating algebraic expressions by substituting variables with given values. She provides examples using different variables (X, N, Y, K, S) and demonstrates the process of substitution and solving using order of operations. The video encourages students to pause and try solving expressions independently before revealing the solutions.

What is the first step in evaluating an algebraic expression?

• Substitute the variable with a given value

• Add all numbers together

• Divide the expression by 2

• Multiply all terms
