Part of video series Translating Word Statements
I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.
How to write an expression from a word problem
- How do you write an Algebraic expression from a word problem?
- If a used book store sells hardcover books for $2.50 and paperback books for $0.50, how do you write an expression for the cost of buying h hardcover books and p paperback books?
- How can you make a table for how much it costs to buy 1, 2, and 3 hardcover books at $2.50 each and 1, 2, and 3 paperback books at $0.50 each?
This lesson goes through an example problem asking you to take a paragraph-long word problem and write an Algebraic expression to model what the words say. In this problem, you are asked to write an expression for the total cost of buying a certain number of hardcover books and paperback books. Unfortunately, the screen is split in half and reflected on each side, so it is a little difficult to see the board.
