Solve for x

x - 25 =35

x = 60

Add 25 to both sides to the equation 

35 + 25 = 60

Are these equations balanced?

n + 3 = 12

n + 3 - 5 =12 - 5

Yes!

Subtract 5 from both sides!

Solve for x 

 4x+ 2 = 50

Answer: x = 12

4x + 2 = 50 --> get the variable by itself by doing inverse operations

4x = 50 - 2 = 48 -->4x= 48 --> x = 48/4 --> x= 12

Name 2 ordered pairs (100 points each) on the line y = 6x + 2? 

Answer: Many answers. 

Some examples: (0,2)  (1,8)  (2,14) (3,20) (4,26)

Plug in any x value and solve the equation for y value.

Are these equations balanced?

5 + 2 = 7

5 + 2 - 5 = 7 - 2

NO!

The new equation did not did the same numerical value to both sides. 

subtract 5 and subtract 2 are not the same

Which equation or equations are true if x = 4? 

a.  6.3 + x = 12.3           b.  x ÷ 16 = 4

c. 25.32 - 21.32 = x        d. 1/8x=1/2


Answer: C and D!

a. 6.3 + (4) ≠ 12.3         b. (4)  ÷ 16  ≠ 4

c. 25.32 - 21.32 = (4)  d. 1/8(4) = 1/2

Mr. Jones' family trip is less than 103 days away. Mr. Jones writes the inequality d ≤ 103, where d equals the number of days, to represent this. Is Mr. Jones correct?

Answer: NO! 

The inequality he should use is x < 103 because it is less than and not less than or equal to.

Which equation represents the relationship between the independent and dependent variables in the chart below? 

Answer: y = 4x + 1

y values are going up by 4 each time x values goes up by 1. Repeated addition is multiplication

--> (4x) 

1 x 4 = 4 which is 1 away from our y value (5) there pattern is plus one.  --> + 1

Are these equations balanced?

n/9=5

n/9 times 5 = 5 times 5


YES!

Same operation and numerical value to both sides ( multiplied by 5)

A ________________ variable changes in response to another variable. 

Answer: dependent variable

The independent variable causes the dependent variable to change.

Solve for t in the equation. 

t + 1/3 = 6 4/9

Answer: t = 6 1/9

Subtract 1/3 from both sides

6 4/9 - 1/3 --> 1/3 = 3/9 

 = 6 1/9

Which of the following equations was used to graph the line shown?

y = 2x + 1           y= x + 3               y=2x + 3


Answer: y = 2x +3

Points on line: (0,3)  (1,5)  (2,7)

Plug in to the equation to see if you get the right x and y values

7 = 2(2) + 3       5 =2(1) + 3      3=2(0) +3

Are these equations balanced?

3n + 5 = 13

2(3n + 5) = 13 + 2

NO!

The new equation did not did the same operation to both sides. 

Multiplied by 2 and add 2 are not the same
