Slide 1 - Slide

Starting with something new
Removing single brackets
Something like this .....  5(2+4)  =

Slide 2 - Slide

Removing single brackets
5(2+4)=

          11                                   -1

          30                                 something else

Slide 3 - Slide

Rectangles
You can think of the calculation 5(2+4) as working out the area of this rectangle.

Slide 4 - Slide

Rectangles
The area of the rectangle is 
length x width =
5 x (2+4) = 
5(2+4)

Slide 5 - Slide

Rectangles
 area rectangle = 5(2+4) = 5 x 6 = 30

You could also calculate the area of the
blue rectangle and red rectangle first 
and then add those up.
area rectangle = 5 x 2 + 5 x 4 =
                                    10 + 20 = 30


Slide 6 - Slide

Rectangles with variables
If at least one of the sides of the rectangle is given as a variable, you can make a formula for the area of the rectangle.

Slide 7 - Slide

Rectangles with variables
You can make a formula with brackets and one without.

Area rectangle = 5 x (t+4) = 5(t+4)
OR
Area rectangle = 5 x t + 5 x 4 =
                                    5t + 20

Slide 8 - Slide

Rectangles with variables
Because both formulas give the same area, we now now that
5(t+4) = 5t + 20

We can use this to rewrite formulas
with brackets as formulas without
brackets.

Slide 9 - Slide

Removing brackets
Write the formula y = 2(3t + 4) without brackets.

Slide 10 - Slide

Removing brackets
Write the formula y = 2(3t + 4) without brackets.
Think of a rectangle with a side of 2 and a side of 3t + 4

Slide 11 - Slide

Removing brackets
Write the formula y = 2(3t + 4) without brackets.
Think of a rectangle with a side of 2 and a side of 3t + 4
Area blue rectangle = 2 x 3t = 6t
Area red rectangle = 2 x 4 = 8

y = 6t + 8

Slide 12 - Slide

Removing brackets
Instead of a rectangle, you can also use a multiplication table.





y = 2(3t + 4) = 6t + 8

Slide 13 - Slide

More variables, negative numbers
If you want to write 2t(5t - 3) without brackets, it is hard to imagine a rectangle, because a lenght of -3 is not possible.
We can still  use a multiplication table!

Slide 14 - Slide

More variables, negative numbers
Write y = 2t(5t - 3) without brackets.

What should be written over here?


            
7t
10t
7t2
10t2

Slide 15 - Slide

More variables, negative numbers
Write y = 2t(5t - 3) without brackets.

What should be written over here?


            
t
6t
6t
2t3

Slide 16 - Slide

More variables, negative numbers
Write y = 2t(5t - 3) without brackets.




            

Slide 17 - Slide

Notation
If a 1 is written in front of a variable or bracket, you do not write down the 1. 

Instead of 1p, you write p
Instead of -1t, you write -t
Instead of -1(5t+2), you write -(5t+2)
