Show all of your steps. 7. Sophia buys 3 bags of Skittles, and Nina buys 7 bags of Skittles. Assuming that all bags of Skittles contain the same amount of Skittles, write an expressions to calculate the total number of Skittles that Sophia and Nina have. _____________________ identify variable ____________________ expression 8.

Assuming that all of the group has the same number of students, write an expression that will calculate the total number of students that Mr. Dobilina has in his classes. _____________________ identify variable ____________________ expression Use the distributive property to write each expression as a sum/difference. 9. 5(x +10) 10. 12(3x + 5) 11. 1 (18x + 28) 2 12. 16x − 24 8 13. −5(2x − 7) 14. −21x + 24 −3 Use the distributive property to write each expression as a product. 15. 3x + 9 16. 12x +18 17. 16x − 24 8 18. 100x −100y 18. 1 3 x+ 4 4 20. −21x + 24 −3 Write 2 expressions to represent each situation. 21. Matthew runs a lunch truck. He sells hot dogs for $2 each and Cheeseburgers for $5. He is open for business 5 days a week. Write two expressions to represent the total amount of money Matthew takes in over the 5 days. 22.Madison works loading trucks. On each truck she puts 45 boxes of tile and 50 boxes of grout. She loads 35 trucks per day. Write two expressions to calculate the total number of pounds Madison loads on the trucks each day. Calculate the pounds if each box of tile weighs 30 pounds and each box of grout weighs 10 pounds. Completely simplify each expression. Apply all of the properties that we have been using, and be especially careful with they – signs. 23. 6(9x + 4) + 3x 24. 5(x − 3) + 2(9x + 2) 25. 8x +16 4x + 8 26. 30x − (6x + 4) 27. 42 − 24x − 3(9x + 4) 6 28. 9(2x − 3) − 4(2x − 7) 29. 2 4 (9x +12) + (25x − 30) 3 5 30. 16x + 24 10x + 35 • 2x + 7 14x + 21
