EVALUATE MULTI VARIABLE EXPRESSIONS

To evaluate a multi variable expression, replace the variables by the given values and simplify using order of operations or PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the rule that can be used to simplify or evaluate complicated numerical expressions with more than one binary operation.

----> Parentheses

----> Exponent 

M ----> Multiply

----> Divide

----> Add

----> Subtract

Important Notes :

1. In a particular simplification, if you have both multiplication and division, do the operations one by one in the order from left to right.

2. Division does not always come before multiplication. We have to do one by one in the order from left to right.

Evaluate the following expressions using the given values of the variables.

Example 1 :

÷ 2 + x, use x = 1 and y = 2

Solution :

= 4 + 1

= 5

Example 2 :

x + y + y; use x = 9 and y = 10

Solution :

  =  x + y + y

Substitute x = 9 and y = 10.

  =  9 + 10 + 10

  = 29

Example 3 :

 z(x + y); use x = 6, y = 8 and z = 6

Solution :

  =  z(x + y)

Substitute y = 8 and z = 6.

  =  6(6 + 8)

  =  6(14)

  =  84

Example 4 :

(y + x) ÷ 2 + x; use x = 1 and y = 1

Solution :

  =  (y + x) ÷ 2 + x

Substitute x = 1 and y = 1.

=  (1 + 1) ÷ 2 + 1

=  2 ÷ 2 + 1

  =  1 + 1

  =  2

Example 5 :

z − (y ÷ 3 - 1); use y = 3 and z = 7

Solution :

  =  z - (y ÷ 3 - 1)

Substitute y = 3 and z = 7.

=  7 - (3 ÷ 3 - 1)

=  7 - (1 - 1)

=  7 - 0

=  7

Example 6 :

 p - (9 - (m + q)); use m = 4, p = 5 and q = 3

Solution :

  =   p - (9 - (m + q))

Substitute m = 4, p = 5, and q = 3.

=  5 - (9 - (4 + 3))

=  5 - (9 - 7)

=  5 - 2

=  3

Example 7 :

y - (4 - x - y ÷ 2); use x = 3 and y = 2

Solution :

=  y - (4 - x - y ÷ 2)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 2.

 =  2 - (4 - 3 - 2 ÷ 2)

 =  2 - (4 - 3 - 1)

 =  2 - (4 - 4)

 =  2 - 0

=  2

Example 8 :

y ÷ 5 + 1 + x ÷ 6; use x = 6 and y = 5

Solution :

  =    y ÷ 5 + 1 + x ÷ 6

Substitute x = 6 and y = 5.

 =  5 ÷ 5 + 1 + 6 ÷ 6

 =  1 + 1 + 1

=  3

Example 9 :

p - (9 - (m + q)); use m = 4, p = 5, and q = 3

Solution :

=   p - 9 - (m + q))

Substitute m = 4, p = 5 and q = 3.

 =  5 - (9 - (4 + 3))

=  5 - (9 - 7)

=  5  - 2

=  3

Example 10 :

6q + m - m; use m = 8 and q = 3 

Solution :

=  6q + m - m

Substitute m = 8 and q = 3.

 =  6(3)  + 8 - 8

=  18 + 0

=  18
