Objective SWBAT solve two-step equations using algebra Did you know your cell phone bill is calculated from a two-step equation?
4
Equation- mathematical sentence with an equal sign Like a scale, both sides must be EQUAL in order to be balanced.
5
Solving a Two-Step Equation How can you get the “unknown” by itself? How can you get the “unknown” by itself? “Undo” operations by using the INVERSE (opposite) operation to both sides of the equation. Solving Two-Step Equations STEP 1- “Undo” addition and/or subtraction. STEP 2- “Undo” multiplication and/or division. STEP 3- Solve for the variable. STEP 4- Check your work. 3x + 5 = -19
6
Solving Two-Step Equations… 3x + 5 = -19 - 5- 5- 5- 5 -5-5-5-5 3x = -24 3x = -24 Isolate the variable! Get ‘x’ by itself. To get the ‘x’ by itself first get rid of “adding 5.” Do the opposite. “Subtract 5.” Whatever you do to one side of the equation you must do the other side. 33 x = -8 x = -8 To get the ‘x’ by itself get rid of “multiplying by 3.” Do the opposite. “Divide by 3.”
7
Check Your Work! 3x + 5 = -19 x = -8 3(-8) + 5 = -19 Are both sides equal?
