Additional Example 1A: Solving Equations with Decimals. Solve. A. m + 4.6 = 9 m + 4.6 = 9 Subtract 4.6 from both sides. – 4.6 = 4.4 m = Once you have solved and equation it is a good idea to check your answer. To check your answer, substitute your answer for the variable in the original equation. Remember!
Additional Examples 1B: Solving Equations with Decimals Solve. B. 8.2p = –32.8 –32.8 8.2 8.2p 8.2 = Divide both sides by 8.2 –4 p =
Additional Examples 1C: Solving Equations with Decimals Solve. x 1.2 C. = 15 x 1.2 = 1.2 • 15 1.2 • Multiply both sides by 1.2 x = 18
A. B. Solve. m + 9.1 = 3 m + 9.1 = 3 Subtract 9.1 from both sides. Try This: Example 1A & 1B Solve. A. m + 9.1 = 3 m + 9.1 = 3 Subtract 9.1 from both sides. –9.1 = –6.1 m = B. 5.5b = 75.9 75.9 5.5 5.5 5.5 = b Divide both sides by 5.5 13.8 b =
C. Solve. Try This: Examples 1C y 4.5 = 90 y 4.5 = 4.5 • 90 4.5 • Multiply both sides by 4.5 y = 405
Additional Examples 2A: Solving Equations with Fractions Solve. 2 7 3 7 A. n + = – n – + = – – 2 7 3 7 27 Subtract from both sides. 2 7 n = – 5 7
Additional Examples 2B: Solving Equations with Fractions Solve. 1 6 2 3 B. y – = 1 6 = 2 3 – + y Add to both sides. 1 6 = y 4 6 1 6 + Find a common denominator; 6. y = 5 6 Simplify.
Additional Examples 2C: Solving Equations with Fractions Solve. 5 6 5 8 C. x = 3 5 6 = 5 8 x 6 5 • Multiply both sides by . 6 5 4 x = 3 4 Simplify.
Solve. A. Try This: Example 2A 1 9 5 9 n + = – Subtract from both sides. 1 9 n – + = – – 1 9 5 9 19 n = – 2 3 Simplify – . 6 9
Solve. B. Try This: Example 2B 1 2 3 4 y – = 1 2 = 3 4 – + y Add to both sides. 1 2 = y 3 4 2 4 + Find a common denominator; 4. y = 1 1 4 Simplify.
Solve. C. Try This: Examples 2C 3 8 6 19 x = 3 8 = 6 19 x 2 3 8 = 6 19 8 3 • Multiply both sides by . 8 3 1 x = 16 19 Simplify.
