1 Chapter 10 Lesson is special because any non-zero number divided by itself is 1, and anything multiplied by 1 remains the same a. yes You cannot divide by zero. c. Yes; x 3 d. Answers vary; sample solutions. x x, x+5 n2, and x+5. n 2 e. Yes, because z = 1. The fact that anything multiplied by 1 stays the same is called z the Identity Property of Multiplication a. 1, x 0 x x+5, x 0 c. 3 x 1, x 1or2 e. hk, h 0 f. 2m 5 3m+1, x 6or 1 g. 2(n 2), x h. 4x 1, x 1 4 or 3 2 d. 1, x a. Yes; you can tell by substituting any number (other than zero). No; you can tell by substituting a number (other than 1). c. They can be simplified like this when the numerator and denominator are single terms and are products of factors. d. (i) is not simplified correctly; (ii) is simplified correctly a. x+3 x 3 2x 5 3x+1 c. 1 d. x a. 1 none c. 2 d Yes, he can. a. x =2 Divide both sides by a. x <0 x a. x 4or2, x+4 x 2 2(x+2) x 2or3, (x 3) a B Answer Key 69

(y 2)2 (y+5) 3y(y+2) c. 7+4m 3m 2, m 2 3 or 3 2, y 0, 2,or2 e. 2x, x 0 and y 0 f. 3x+1 2x 3, x 3 2, 4,or a c. 5(x 2) (x+4) 2 d. 2(2x 3) (x 5)(x+1) e. 5x 1 2(x 3) = 5x 1 2x 6 f. 1 2x a. x 2=4 For each, x =6. c. x+3=8, x = a. m = 6 5, b = (0, 7) m = 3, b = (0, 5) c. m =2, b = (0, 12) a. ( 1 3, 2) (4, 9) a. x 4 3x+2 5 x 3 c a. m = 6 x =5.5 c. k =4 d. x = after 44 minutes Lesson a. 2x 3(2x 1) = 2x 6x 3 x 4 x a. She can multiply each term in the equation by a number to eliminate the decimals. 2x 2 +3x 5 =0, (2x+5)(x 1)=0, so x = 2.5 or a. 3x 5=7, x = 4 3x 2 2x 5 =0, x = 1 or 5 3 c. 1+x=10, x = 9 d. 4x 2 +8x 5=0, x = 1 2 or x = a. x 15 =24 ; One denominator was eliminated, but there is still a fraction left over. 4 Multiply by 4; 4x 15 =96, x = = c. 24 or any multiple of 24; 24 is the least common multiple of 6 and 8; 4x 15 =96. d. x = Equations: 4x 2 =6x, 1 2x =5, 5 3x = 7, 2x+1=5, x 6 =3+2x, 4 x= 1; solutions: a: x = 1, b: x = 2, c: x =4, d: x =2, e: x = 9, f: x = a. 5(3x 1) 2(4 x+1) 1 c. p+9 3p 2 d. 4 x y= 1 3 x y< 2 x a. 2d 3 2d 3=19, 11 candies 3 70 Algebra Connections

3 Lesson a. possible equation. 10x+45=15, x = 3 Six is the smallest number that can eliminate all fractions. Any multiple of 6 works, as does multiplying first by 3 and then again by a. 3x 2x =8, x = 8 5 2x 2 =3x,x =1 or 2.5 c. 14x+7 3x 9 =168, x = 10 d. x+3+2x 4 = x+5,x = a. p 2 or 4 because they would cause one (or both) denominators to be zero. p=3 or 4. However, p= 4 is an excluded value, and therefore is extraneous. Hence, the solution is p= a. x 2 +4x+3=0, x = 1 or 3 a 2 6a+9 =0, a =3 c. 12m 2=38+10m, m =20 d. 2(x 3)+3x =4(x+5), x = a. x =4 x = 5 or 2 c. x = 16 3 d. x = a. (x 2)(x+6) (x+4)(2x+3) 2x+1 x a. t =5 seconds 100 feet t +s=27, 1 2 t s =111, t =19 Times papers See diagram at right C Lesson x = x+12 =20, x = a. Divide by 4; dividing undoes multiplication, because they are inverse operations. after dividing, x+3=5, x = 2; yes c. Using the opposite operation eliminates (or undoes ) the multiplication a. If you treat (x+3) as a group, then 4 (group) = 20. Therefore, x+3=5 x+3=5, x = 2; yes iii, 2 i, 3 ii a c. 11 d. 2 e. 25 f. 27 s a. x =10 or a. Both Hank and Frank are correct. two a. 4 or or 100 c. no solution d. 3 or (a), (b), and (c) all are equal to a. x > 2 x 12 c. x >1 d. x a. 3+4x =14, x = 11 4 rewriting Let x represent the amount of money the youngest child receives. Then x+2x+x+35=775 ; $185, $370, and $220. Answer Key 71

Two solutions because 2x 5 can equal 9 or 9 Looking inside offers a quick solution. c. Since 2x 5 =9 or 9, then x =7 or x = a. Answers vary Answers vary, but it should contain an absolute-value expression equal to zero a. x =3 or 11 x =14 c. x =2 d. x = No, because 1 is not greater than a. x+4 m+5 4x 3 m a.
