When solving equations "who" do we think of as being the CELEBRITY?
A. Groupie
B. Variable
C. Exponent
D. Smallest Number
B. Variable
3q + 1 = 10
q = 3
- 99.8573 + x = 0
99.8573
Solve using combining like terms:
- 8j - 2j + 5 = 10
j = -1/2
What is INVERSE OPERATION?
(give an example)
Opposites
(add - subtract) OR (multiply - divide)
r/4 - 3 = 1
r = 16
What value is a solution to this equation?
6 + s = 8
A. 3
B. 4
C. 2
C. 2
1(5x - 12) = 88
x = 20
What is the MAIN GOAL when solving equations?
To get the variable by itself
3t - 17 = -20
t = -1
9 = 3 + 2b
b = 3
A negative number multiplied by another negative number will give a ________ answer.
A. Positive
B. Negative
A. Positive
Who is the GROUPIE in the equation below?
-65 + 5x = 20
-65
(g + 2)/4 = 12
g = 46
y/6 = -10
y = -60
4/6 + 1/8
19/24
38/48 simplified
Not the main goal BUT what is the other super important piece we have to remember about solving equations?
What we do to one side of the equation we do the exact same to the other side.
(-c + 7)/10 = 5
c = 43
16 - x = 4
12 = x
3 (4x + 5) = 50
2 11/12
