Objectives Simplify and evaluate expressions containing variables.

Evaluating Expressions To evaluate an expression that contains variables: – substitute each variable in the expression with a given numeric value. –Then find the value of the expression

Example 1 Evaluating Expressions with Two Variables Evaluate each expression for the given values of the variables. – a[– a(p – a)] for a = 3 and p = 4

Example 2 Evaluating Expressions with Two Variables Evaluate each expression for the given values of the variables. (– x + a) – (x – a) for a = – 2 and x = 7
