Which subject and periods did Mr. Roy teach?
Math 9 Period 4 & 5
4 = -8 + x
x= 12
Solving Equations
4(6 + 5x) = 124
x = 5
Solving Equations
-4(-8p + 1) = -4 - 8p
p = 0
3x + 5 = 14
x= 3
What is the goal of solving equations?
Get "x" by itself
x + 12 = 0
x= -12
Solving Equations
-108 = -8(x + 6) - 4
x = 7
Solving Equations
6(6n - 2) = 8n - 40
n = -1
(x/2) +10=-8
x= -36
What is the first thing that we need to do when solving the equations with brackets?
Remove brackets.
3 = -2 – x
x= -5
Solving Equations
172 = 5(4a + 6) + 2
a=7
Solving Equations
5x + 5 + 4x = 4 - 3x + 6
x= 5/12 or x= 0.41667
(x/2)-4=10
x= 28
How to Check the solutions by yourself?
Plug the solution into the original equation.
5x = -80
x= 16
Solving Equations
-93 = 7(-3k - 8) + 5
k = 2
Solving Equations
-5(8n - 4) - n = - 16 - 5n
n = 1
(x/3)+12=-3
x= -45
