Answer:
Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 4 Lesson 9 Example Answer Key 1

How would this look it you were asked to show 5 plus 3?
Answer:
There would be 5 tiles and then 3 tiles.
Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 4 Lesson 9 Example Answer Key 2

Are these two expressions equivalent?
Answer:
Yes. Both 3 + 5 and 5 + 3 have a sum of 8.

Example 2.

How can we show a number increased by 2?
Answer:
a + 2 or 2 + a

Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 4 Lesson 9 Example Answer Key 3

Can you prove this using a model? If so, draw the model.
Answer:
Yes. I can use a bar diagram.

 

Example 3.
Write an expression to show the sum of m and k.
Answer:
m + k or k + m

Which property can be used in Examples 1 – 3 to show that both expressions given are equivalent?
Answer:
The commutative property of addition

Example 4
How can we show 10 minus 6?
Draw a bar diagram to model this expression.
Answer:
Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 4 Lesson 9 Example Answer Key 4

What expression would represent this model?
Answer:
10 – 6

Could we also use 6 – 10?
Answer:
No. If we started with 6 and tried to take 10 away the models would not match.

Example 5
How can we write an expression to show 3 less than a number?
Start by drawing a diagram to model the subtraction. Are we taking away from the 3 or the unknown number?
Answer:
We are taking 3 away from the unknown number.
Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 4 Lesson 9 Example Answer Key 5

What expression would represent this model?
Answer:
The expression is n – 3

Example 6
How would we write an expression to show the number c being subtracted from the sum of a and b?

Start by writing an expression for “the sum of a and b.”
Answer:
a + b or b + a

Now, show c being subtracted from the sum.
Answer:
a + b – c or b + a – c

Example 7
Write an expression to show c minus the sum of a and b.
Answer:
c – (a + b)

Why are parentheses necessary in this example and not the others?
Answer:
Without the parentheses, only a is being taken away from c, where the expression says that a + b should be taken away from c.

Replace the variables with numbers to see if c – (a + b) is the same as c – a + b.

Exercise 3.
Write an expression to show the sum of a, b, and c.
Answer:
Answers will vary. Below are possible answers.
a + b + c               b + c + a           c + b + a
a + c + b               b + a + c           c + a + b

Exercise 4.
Write an expression and a model showing 3 less than p.
Answer:
p – 3
Eureka Math Grade 6 Module 4 Lesson 9 Exercise Answer Key 7

Exercise 5.
Write an expression to show the difference of 3 and p.
Answer:
3 – p

Exercise 6.
Write an expression to show 4 less than the sum of g and 5.
Answer:
g + 5 – 4 or 5 + g – 4

Exercise 7.
Write an expression to show 4 decreased by the sum of g and 5.
Answer:
4 – (g + 5) or 4 – (5 + g)

Exercise 8.
Should Exercises 6 and 7 have different expressions? Why or why not?
Answer:
The expressions are different because one includes the word “decreased by”and the other has the words ‘less than.” The words “less than” give the amount that was taken away first, whereas the word “decreased by” gives us a starting amount and then the amount that was taken away.
