Algebraic Equations I
6x = 30
divide both sides by 6
x = 5
6j - 24 = 12
j = 6
5 less than p
p - 5
x -23 = 50
add 23 to both sides
x=73
8k + 19 = 35
k = 2
What do you call the answer to a division problem?
quotient
p + 35 = 91
subtract 35 from both sides
p = 56
5m - 9 = 3m + 7
m = 8
What is the value of the expression below when T = 8?
5 + 3T
29
Translate "twice as much as b" into an algebraic expression
2b
n ÷ 4 = 25
multiply both sides by 4
n = 100
10n + 6 = 15n - 9
n = 3
3x = 450
divide both sides by 3
x = 150
10p - 4 = 8p + 16
p = 10
Translate "the quotient of a number and 5" into an algebraic expression. Write it two different ways.
n ÷ 5 OR n over five (like a fraction)
