Section 1.1Evaluating Expressions
• This chapter introduces a lot of vocabulary and basic concepts for algebra.
• Vocabulary will play a very important role in this class.
• You are expected to take notes over both vocab. and examples.
The total cost of seeing a movie at a theater can be represented by the expression a + r where a is the cost (in dollars) of admission and r is the cost (in dollars) of refreshments. Suppose you pay $7.50 for admission and $7.25 for refreshments. Find the total cost.
Add.
The total cost is $14.75
ANSWER
Substitute 7.50 for a and 7.25 for r.
= 14.75
= 7.50 + 7.25
Write expression.Total cost =
EXAMPLE 2 Evaluate an expression
SOLUTION
a + r
EXAMPLE 4 Evaluate powers
Evaluate the expression.
a. x4 = 24
= 16= (1.5)(1.5)(1.5)= 3.375
= 2 2 2 2b. n3 = 1.53
b. n3 when n = 1.5
SOLUTION
a. x4 when x = 2
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 4
Evaluate the expression.
9. x3 when x = 8
9. x3 = 83
= 512= (2.5)(2.5)(2.5)= 15.625
= 8 8 810. k3 = 2.53
10. k3 when k = 2.5
SOLUTION

EXAMPLE 5 Evaluate a power
Storage cubes
Write formula for volume.
= 143 Substitute 14 for s.
= 2744 Evaluate power.
Each edge of the medium-sized pop-up storage cube shown is 14 inches long. The storage cube is made so that it can be folded flat when not in use. Find the volume of the storage cube.
V = s3
The volume of the storage cube is 2744 cubic inches.
