Solving Multi-step Equations Lesson 7-2 p.340
Multi-step equations • Here is another type of equation that we can solve: • 2x + 7 + 3x = 42 • How is this equation different?
Multi-step equations • Here is another type of equation that we can solve: • 2x + 7 + 3x = 42 • How is this equation different? • There are two x terms in the equation.
Multi-step equations • To solve this type of equation, we first combine like terms, then solve as before. • 2x + 7 + 3x = 42 5x + 7 = 42
Multi-step equations • To solve this type of equation, we first combine like terms, then solve as before. • 2x + 7 + 3x = 42 5x + 7 = 42 first combine like terms -7 -7subtract 7 from both sides 5x = 35 5 5 divide both sides by 5 and x = 7 solve.
Try This • 4g + 6g -3 = 37 • -7y + 9 + 3y = 41
Try This • 4g + 6g -3 = 37 g = 4 • -7y + 9 + 3y = 41
Try This • 4g + 6g -3 = 37 g = 4 • -7y + 9 + 3y = 41 y = -8
Word Problems • Some word problems can be set up as an equation and solved in the same way. A common type is the “consecutive integer” problem. • What does the word consecutive mean?
Word Problems • Some word problems can be set up as an equation and solved in the same way. A common type is the “consecutive integer” problem. • What does the word consecutive mean? • It means “in sequence” or “in order”
Word Problems • Some word problems can be set up as an equation and solved in the same way. A common type is the “consecutive integer” problem. • What does the word consecutive mean? • It means “in sequence” or “in order” • 13,14,15 are consecutive numbers. • So are -4, -3, -2.
Consecutive numbers • Find 3 consecutive numbers whose sum is 48. • Let the smallest number = n. • The next number is one more than n so the next number = n + 1 • The third number is two more than n so the third number is n + 2
Consecutive numbers • 1st number = n • 2nd number = n + 1 • 3rd number = n + 2 • The sum of the three numbers is 48, so n + n + 1 + n + 2 = 48 3n + 3 = 48 3n = 45 n = 15
Consecutive numbers • 1st number = n n = 15 • 2nd number = n + 1 n + 1 = 16 • 3rd number = n + 2 n + 2 = 17 • The consecutive numbers are 15, 16, 17
Try This • The sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 78. Find the three numbers.
Try This • The sum of 3 consecutive numbers is 78. Find the three numbers. • 25, 26, 27
More consecutive numbers • Sometimes a problem might ask for consecutive even numbers. An example would be 8,10,12. • What is the difference between the first 2 numbers?
More consecutive numbers • Sometimes a problem might ask for consecutive even numbers. An example would be 8,10,12. • What is the difference between the first 2 numbers? +2 • What is the difference between the first and last number?
More consecutive numbers • Sometimes a problem might ask for consecutive even numbers. An example would be 8,10,12. • What is the difference between the first 2 numbers? +2 • What is the difference between the first and last number? +4 • The three numbers are n, n+2, and n+4
Let’s try one • Find 3 consecutive ODD integers whose sum is 105.
Let’s try one • Find 3 consecutive ODD integers whose sum is 105. • 33, 35, 37
