Rules
What is the first step in solving multi step equations?
Distribution
2(x + 3) = 22
x = 8
| 4+k | = 10
(5,-5)
How many solutions will you have when solving an absolute value equations?
2
6=1-2n+5
x=0
| a - 6 | = 3
(9,3)
What should I do to make sure my solutions are correct?
Check my work by substituting the values back into the original question.
5p-14=8p+4
x=-6
| b |+6 =16
(10,-10)
When the "alligator" eats the number, which way should you shade?
To the left. (Less than)
-(7-4x)=9
x=4
4+ | x/6 | = 5
(6,-6)
When solving an inequality, when should you flip your sign?
When dividing or multiplying by a negative.
p-4=-9+p
no solution
-7 - | x+6 | = -12
(-1,-11)
