Objective SWBAT translate verbal sentences into equations SWBAT translate verbal sentences into equations

Section 2.4, “Variables and Equations” Section 2.4, “Variables and Equations” EQUATION – EQUATION – mathematical sentence formed by placing an “=“ between two expressions y – 8 = 12 y – 8 = = 14 + z 11a = a = 121 x ÷ 5 = 30 x ÷ 5 = 30

Equation Like a scale, the left side and right side must be the same in order to be balanced! Like a scale, the left side and right side must be the same in order to be balanced! + 7 = 10 Left side Right side x ‘x’ has to be 3 in order to make the equation balanced.

Writing Algebraic Expressions Operation Verbal Phrase Expression Addition Sum, plus, total, more than, increased by 5 + n k + 12 Subtraction Difference, less than, minus, decreased by 12 – p x – 12 Multiplication Product, times, of, multiplied by 3 x 5 3(d) (n)(w) p ∙ k Division Quotient, divided by, divided into k/7 14 ÷ r Writing Equations SymbolMeaningKey phrases =Is equal toThe same as, is

Translate verbal phrases into equations Verbal Phrase Equation a. the difference of a number k and 8 is 12. b. the product of 6 and a number n is 24. c. the sum of a number y and 5 is 13. k – 8 = 12 6n = 24 y + 5 = 13 d. the quotient of a number z and 2 is 7. z ÷ 2 = 7

A SOLUTION of an equation with a variable is a number that produces a TRUE statement when it is substituted for the variable. k – 8 = is NOT A SOLUTION (19) – 8 = 12 Tell whether 19 or 20 is a solution to the equation. 11 ≠ is a SOLUTION 20 is a SOLUTION (20) – 8 = = 12

SOLUTION– when you substitute for a variable the solution can be either TRUE or FALSE. k – 2 = 6 6n = 54 4 = 36/s Substitute 9 for each variable. Is 9 the solution for each equation? NOT A SOLUTION SOLUTION SOLUTION (9) – 2 = 6 6(9) = 54 4 = 36/(9) 7 ≠ 6 54 = 54 4 = 4

Mental Math When solving simple equations using mental math, think of the equation as a question. When solving simple equations using mental math, think of the equation as a question. x + 8 = 12 “What number plus 8 is equal to 12? “ x = 4 16 – m = 2 “16 minus what number is equal to 2? “ m = = 5y “20 is equal to 5 times what number? “ y = 4 v ÷ 8 = 8 “What number divided by 8 is equal to 8? “ v = 64
