Simplifying Expressions and Solving Multistep Equations Challenge

The video tutorial covers a review of Algebra 1 concepts, focusing on simplifying expressions and solving multi-step equations. It begins with an overview of the order of operations, known as PEMDAS, which includes parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. The tutorial then demonstrates how to simplify expressions by distributing and combining like terms. Finally, it explains how to solve equations, including those with variables on both sides, using step-by-step methods.

What does the 'P' in PEMDAS stand for?

• Polynomials

• Products

• Powers

• Parentheses

If you have both multiplication and division in the same expression, which one should you perform first?

• Multiplication

• Whichever comes last

• Division

• Whichever comes first

In the expression 2^3, what is the value?

• 6

• 12

• 9

• 8

When simplifying the expression (6 + 4) - 2, what is the first step?

• Subtract 2

• Add 6 and 4

• Multiply 6 and 4

• Divide by 2

What operation should you perform when you see a number in front of parentheses?

• Distribute

• Divide

• Subtract

• Add

What is the result of distributing 3 to the expression (x + 2)?

• 3x + 2

• 3x + 6

• x + 6

• 3x + 2x

How do you combine like terms in the expression 3x - 4x + 6?

• Add 3x and 6

• Subtract 6 from 3x

• Subtract 4x from 3x

• Add 3x and -4x

What is the first step in solving the equation 5x - 20 = 5?

• Multiply by 5

• Add 20 to both sides

• Subtract 5 from both sides

• Divide by 5

In the equation 5x - 20 = 5, what is the value of x?

• 5

• 4

• 1

• 2

When solving equations with variables on both sides, which variable should you move first?

• The smaller variable

• The variable on the left

• The variable on the right

• The larger variable
