Definitions  Addition property of equality –When you add the same number to both sides of an equation, you get a true statement  Subtraction property of equality –When you subtract the same number to both sides of an equation, you get a true statement  Multiplication property of equality –When you multiply the same number to both sides of an equation, you get a true statement  Division property of equality –When you divide the same number to both sides of an equation, you get a true statement

Write the following as an equation, using y as your variable.  An object on Jupiter weights about 2.6 times its weight on Earth. If a spacecraft weighs 4914 Newtons on Jupiter, what is its weight on Earth?  2.6y = 4914  How can you determine how much it weighs on earth? –Divide to get the variable by itself
