 Activity 1: SHOW ME BOARD.
Multiply the following integers and state the rules in multiplying signed numbers.

(-4) (-4) = 16
(-9) (2) = -18 (-2) (-2) = 4

(-8) (-9) = 72
(-2) (-3) = 6

(-7) (-2) = 14
(4) (-2) = -8
(4) (5) = 20
(-3) (-4) = 12
Activity 2:
Let sing Bahay-Kubo by changing all the vowels with a, e, i, o, u
Example 1 Example 2 Example 3
If x = 2, If m = -4, If a = 2, find
find 3x + 3. find 3m + 6. a3 + 4.
3(2) + 3 3(-4) + 6 (2)3 + 4
6+3=9 -12 + 6 = -6 8 + 4 = 12

___________, then _________…

My Own Example
 Conclusion
In evaluating algebraic expressions
using algebra tiles, replace the x-tile
with _____________ then proceed to
____________.

My Own Example
 GIVEN: If x = 2, evaluate 2x + 3

By Substitution: 2x + 3
= 2 (2) + 3
= 4 +3
= 7
 GIVEN: If x = -2, evaluate 2x + 3

By Substitution: 2x + 3
= 2 (-2) + 3
= -4 +3
= -1
 GIVEN: If x = 2, evaluate 2x + 3

By Algebra Tiles 2x + 3
2x 3
Step 1
x x +

Step 2 x= 2 + 3

x x

Step 3 4 3

ANSWER =7
 GIVEN: If x = -2, evaluate 2x + 3

By Algebra Tiles 2x + 3
