BLOQUE ALGEBRA - ALGEBRA UNIDAD DIDCTICA 9: EQUACIONES. EQUATIONS EQUATION - ECUACIN

To solve an equation is to find all its solutions. A solution to an equation is the number that makes the equality true when we replace the unknown or variable with that number. Unknown Incgnita. - x

ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION PROPERTY PROPIEDAD DE LA SUMA Y RESTA

If you add (subtract) the same number to each side of an equation, the two sides remain equal. Si sumas o restas el mismo nmero a cada lado de una ecuacin, los dos lados permanecen igual.

Solve:

x+2=6

We subtract 2 to each side. x + 2 2 = 6 2 Remove the equivalent terms.

x=4

The solution of this equation is 4.

MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION PROPERTY PROPIEDAD DE LA MULTIPLICACIN Y DIVISIN.

If you multiply (divide) each side of an equation by the same nonzero number, the two sides remain equal. Si multiplicas o divides cada lado de una ecuacin por el mismo nmero no nulo, los dos lados permanecen igual.

Solve:

5m = 15 x=3 The solution of this equation is 3.

Divide each side by 5 ; Simplify.

SOLVING MULTI-STEP EQUATIONS RESOLVIENDO ECUACIONES DE VARIOS PASOS

1 Remove any parentheses. (1 Eliminar parentesis) 2 Clear any fraction. (2 Eliminar denominadores) 3 Group like terms on each side of the equal sign. (3 Agrupar terminus semejantes a cada lado) 4 Isolate the variable. (4 Despejar la incognita o variable) 5 Simplify. (5 Simplificar) Solve:

Clear out the parenthesis.

Clear the fraction 15x + 15 10 = 4x + 16 Group like terms together. Isolate the variable 15x 4x = 16 15 + 10

11x = 11

Solution: x = 1
