2.1 Solving Equations Using Properties of Equality True and False Equations Ex: Determine if the following are true or false. 1) 3 + 4 = 7 2) 3 + 4 = 8 3) x + 6 = 10 Ex: Determine whether 4 is a solution of x + 6 = 10 Properties of Equality Let s assume that Thor and Loki are the same height: If they stand together on a box, they are still the same height: So: (Addition Property of Equality) If they stand together in a ditch, they are still the same height: So: (Subtraction Property of Equality)
If you clone Thor and Loki, then they are still the same height: So: (Multiplication Property of Equality) Hard to draw a picture of: Division Property of Equality Solving Equations: 1) Locate the variable(s) and decide which side to keep them on. 2) Use Addition and Subtraction to move terms so that all the variables are on one side, and all the constants are on the other side. 3) Use Multiplication or Division to isolate the variable. Ex: Solve 1) 5t = 40 2) - 80 = -5w
3) 7.7 = -3.2 + 2s 4) 2a + 4 = a + 8 5)! t 1 = ' (" t + " () ()
