1. 20 Solving Equations To solve ONE step equations you must use the INVERSE OPERATION. OPPOSITE OperationInverse Operation Addition Multiplication EX: V – 10 = -9 EX: -40 = -5p OP: Multiplication -5 -5 IN OP: Division P = 8 21 Subtraction Division +10 +10 OP: Subtraction IN OP: Addition V = 1

2. 22 Two Step Equations Two Step Equations have two operations that need to be undone in the opposite order of PEMDAS to solve. (SADMEP) EX: 3X – 4 = 11 OP: Multi, Subtraction +4 +4IN OP: Addition, Division 3X = 15 3 3 X = 5 23 Solving Equations with variables on both sides Step 1 Combine like Terms (CLT) we add constants together and add terms with the same variable and degree (exponent) Degree is the exponent on the variable 1 Solution Only one value makes this equation true NO Solution No value makes this equation true Infinitely Many Solutions any value makes this equation true

3. 4. Divide by the coefficient of the variable. So that the coefficient becomes 1. Solving Equations With Multiple Variables 1.Multiply both sides by the LCD to clear out any fractions. 2. Simplify both sides. This will often mean clearing out parenthesis and the like terms. 3. Move all terms containing the variable you are solving for to one side and all terms that do not contain the variable to the opposite side. 24 To solve equations with multiple variables do the following: (Every term should be multiplied by the LCD) 25 Systems of Equations A system of equations consists of 2 (or more) equations. The solution to a System of Equations is the ordered pair (x,y) that satisfies both equations. Types of Solutions One solution  intersecting lines No solution  parallel lines (never intersect, same slope) Infinitely many solutions  same line!

4. 26 27 Solving Systems of Equations by Graphing When solving a system by graphing the solution is the point of intersection. Graph each line, then find the point of intersection WITH CALCULATOR 1.Plug equations into y 1 and y 2 2.GRAPH 3.2 ND TRACE, Option 5, then ENTER 3 times 4.Solution will be the ordered pair at the bottom x = -3y = -5 (-3, -5) Intersection point x y (-3, -5) Solution!! Solving Systems of Equations with Substitution Substitute- “replace, plug in” Y must equal -2 to satisfy both equations Substitute y = - 2 from the first equation to the other Solve for x -3 = 3x 3 x = -1 Solution is ( -1, -2) Substitute y=2x into the other equation 4− = −4 Solve for x CLT x = -2 To find y, substitute x = -2 into either equation. (-2,-4)

5. 28 If you do not have “ x = “ or “ y = “ pick the easiest variable in the easiest equation and solve for it. Solve for x So our system becomes Substitute x = 7 – 3y for the other equation 2(7 – 3y) – 4y = -6 14 – 6y – 4y = -6 14 – 10y = -6 -14 -14 -10y = -20 -10 -10 y = 2 Solve for y x = 1 Solution is (1, 2) 29 Solving a System by Elimination with + or - ? Eliminate – “get rid of” To eliminate a variable the coefficient in each equation has to be the same. We can eliminate the y-variable by adding the equations together Solve for x x = 4 Substitute x = 4 into either equation to solve for y. x – 3y =7 4 – 3y = 7 -4 -3y = 3 -3 -3 y = -1 Solution is (4, -1)

6. 2930 We can eliminate the x-variable by subtracting the equations together. Solve for y y = 3 Substitute y = 3 into either equation to solve for x. 3x – y =-9 3x – 3 = -9 +3 +3 3x = -6 3 3 x = -2 Solution is (-2, 3) Alternative to subtracting ( Multiply one eqn by -1 5 +( Then add the eqns y = 1 Plug in y to find x Solution is ( -1, 1) Goal: Rewrite the system so you can eliminate a variable with addition ( Solve for y y = 4 Substitute y = 4 into either equation to solve for x. 5x + y = 9 5x + 4 = 9 -4 -4 5x = 5 5 5 x = 1 Solution is (1, 4) Solving a System by Elimination with Multiplication Choose which variable to Eliminate. To eliminate the x-variable, multiply the top Equation by -2 to get -10x. +

7. 3231 ( Solve for x x = -6 Substitute x = -6 into either equation to solve for y. 5x + 4y = -30 5(-6) + 4y = -30 -30 +4y = -30 +30 +30 4y = 0 4 4 y = 0 Solution is (-6, 0) Choose which variable to eliminate. To eliminate the y-variable both equations must be multiplied by a number. + HINT: Choose the least common multiple as the target coefficient LCM (4, 9) = 36 so multiply the top by 9 and to get 36y and multiply the bottom by 4 to get -36y ( Setting up Systems of Equations Word Problems Quantity and Price TJMS is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38.
