When an expression contains more than one
operation, the order of operations tells you
which operation to perform first.
Order of Operations
First:
Perform operations inside grouping symbols.
Second: Evaluate powers.
Third:
Perform multiplication and division from left to right.
Fourth:
Perform addition and subtraction from left to right.
Grouping symbols include parentheses ( ),
brackets [ ], and braces { }. If an expression
contains more than one set of grouping symbols,
begin with the innermost set. Follow the order of
operations within that set of grouping symbols
and then work outward.
Helpful Hint
Fraction bars, radical symbols, and absolute-value
symbols can also be used as grouping symbols.
Remember that a fraction bar indicates division.

Additional Example 2: Retail Application
A shop offers gift-wrapping services at three
price levels. The amount of money collected
for wrapping gifts on a given day can be
found using the expression 2B + 4S + 7D. On
Friday the shop wrapped 10 basic packages B,
6 super packages S, and 5 deluxe packages D.
Use the expression to find the amount of
money collected for gift-wrapping on Friday.
2B + 4S +7D
2(10) + 4(6) + 7(5) Substitute values for variables.
Multiply.
20 + 24 + 35
Add.
79
A total of $79 was collected on Friday.
Partner Share! Example 2
A formula for a player’s total number of bases
is Hits + D + 2T + 3H. Use this expression to
find Hank Aaron’s total bases for 1959, when
he had 223 hits, 46 doubles, 7 triples, and 39
home runs.
Hits + D + 2T + 3H
223 + 46 + 2(7) + 3(39)Substitute values for variables.
223 + 46 + 14 + 117
Multiply.
400
Add.
Hank Aaron’s total number of bases for 1959 was 400.
The terms of an expression are the parts to be
added or subtracted. Like terms are terms that
contain the same variables raised to the same
powers. Constants are also like terms.
Like terms
Constant
4x – 3x + 2
A coefficient is a number multiplied by a variable.
Like terms can have different coefficients. A
variable written without a coefficient has a
coefficient of 1.
Coefficients
1x2 + 3x
Like terms can be combined. To combine like
terms, use the Distributive Property.
Distributive Property
ax – bx = (a – b)x
Example
7x – 4x = (7 – 4)x
= 3x
Notice that you can combine like terms by
adding or subtracting the coefficients. Keep the
variables and exponents the same.
Additional Example 1: Identifying Properties
Name the property that is illustrated in each
equation.
A. 7(mn) = (7m)n
The grouping is different.
Associative Property of Multiplication
B. (a + 3) + b = a + (3 + b) The grouping is different.
Associative Property of Addition
C. x + (y + z) = x + (z + y) The order is different.
Commutative Property of Addition
