Algebra is a branch of Mathematics that deals with the
study of symbols, equations and functions.
It involves the use of variables(letters), constants and
Mathematics operations to solve equations and
manipulate expressions.
A binomial expression contains two algebraic terms.
Examples of binomial expressions; x – 2y, 3a2 + 5b2 and
4xy – 7xz are

Algebraic expressions WEEK 1
REMOVING BRACKECTS:
Example:
Remove brackets and simplify the following;
1. 3a + 2(a + 2b)
2. 4a – 5(a – 2)
3. (m + 3)(m – 2)
Solution:
1. 3a + 2(a + 2b) 3. (m + 3)(m – 2)
= 3a + 2a + 4b = m(m-2) + 3(m-2)
= 5a + 4b = m2 -2m + 3m -6
= m2 + m - 6
2. 4a – 5(a – 2)
= 4a – 5a + 10
= -1a + 10 OR –a + 10

Factorising Algebraic Expressions
Factorising is simply the reverse of expanding brackets. To
factorise an expression completely, we take the highest
common factor (HCF) of each term and place this outside the
bracket.

= 3(x + 1)
HCF = 4
b. 8x - 20
c. 21x - 28 HCF = 7

Factorisation of binomials WEEK 1
A binomial expression contains two algebraic terms.
x – 2y, 3a2 + 5b2 and 4xy – 7xz are examples of binomial expressions.
Factorisation means writing an expression in terms of its factors.
Example 1: factorise the following:
a. 12y + 8z
b. 4n2 – 2n
c. 24pq – 16p2
Solution
a. 12y + 8z = 4(3y + 2z)
b. 4n2 – 2n = 2n(2n – 1)
c. 24pq – 16p2 = 8p(3q – 2p)

Solving Equation WEEK 2
To solve an equation means to find the value of the
unknown that makes the equation true.
2x – 9 = 10 is an equation in x.
x is the unknown in the equation.
Solve 5x – 4 = 2x + 11
Solution: subtract 2x from both sides.
5x – 2x – 4 = 2x – 2x + 11
3x – 4 = 11
Add 4 to both sides.
3x – 4 + 4 = 11 + 4
3x = 15
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 15/3
X=5
Always clear fractions, multiply both sides of the equation by the LCM of
the denominators of the fractions.
