Evaluating Expressions for 7th Grade Math

This video tutorial covers evaluating algebraic expressions using the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS. It begins with an introduction to the concept of evaluation, followed by several examples that demonstrate how to substitute variables with given values and simplify expressions. The tutorial includes examples with basic expressions, expressions with different variable values, and more complex expressions involving exponents. Students are encouraged to practice with provided problems and bring any questions to class.
