Question 5 • * SY2025-26 - 1205010 M/J Grade 6 Mathematics Sem 1 CR

Model the algebraic expression x + 2. Then select all the statements that are true.

Answer
A
x + 2 cannot be modeled with algebra tiles.
B
The variable x is represented by a rectangular orange x tile.
C
The variable x is represented by a square orange + tile.
D
+ 2 is represented by 2 rectangular orange x tiles.
E
+ 2 is represented by 2 square orange + tiles.

Explanation

An algebra tile for x is a rectangular variable tile, and a positive x is shown with the positive color, often orange. The constant +2 means two positive unit tiles, which are square tiles marked with a plus sign. So B and E are true; the two unit tiles are not rectangular x tiles.
