Chunking

For each of the following, visualize the equation with the indicated expression chunked. You may first write down the equation with the chunk outlined if it helps you.

  1. 4x + 3 = x - 7; chunk the x on the right side.
  2. $\frac{2x^{2}+3x-4}{x+1}=2$; chunk the x + 1 in the left side's denominator
  3. $3+\sqrt{x+2}=5.4$; chunk the 3 on the left side.
  4. $3+\sqrt{x+2}=5.4$; chunk the $\sqrt{x+2}$ on the left side.
  5. $3+\sqrt{x+2}=5.4$; chunk the x + 2, inside the square root, on the left side.
