  1. I CAN determine whether a number is a solution of an equation.

  2. Vocabulary equation solution

  3. 3 + 2 5 An equationis a mathematical statement that two expressions are equal. You can think of a correct equation as a balanced scale.

  4. 10 + 15 27 12 + 15 27 Equations may contain variables. If a value for a variable makes an equation true, that value is a solution of the equation. s + 15 = 27 s = 12 s = 10 s = 12 is a solution because 12 + 15 = 27. s = 10 is not a solution because 10 + 15  27.

  5. Reading Math The symbol  means “is not equal to.”

  6. ? 1,650— 447 = 1,203 ? 1,203 1,203 1,203 = 1,203 Example 1: Determining Solutions of Equations A. Determine whether the given value of the variable is a solution. b — 447 = 1,203 for b = 1,650 b — 447 = 1,203 Substitute 1,650 for b. Subtract. Yes, 1,650 is a solution to b— 447 = 1,203.

  7. ? 2754 = 1,485 1,458 ? 1,485 1,458 = 1,485 Determining Solutions of Equations B. Determine whether the given value of the variable is a solution. 27x = 1,485 for x = 54 27x = 1,485 Substitute 54 for x. Multiply. No, 54 is not a solution to 27x= 1,485.

  8. ? 73 + 56 = 139 ? 129 = 139 You Try! Example 1 A. Determine whether the given value of the variable is a solution. u + 56 = 139 for u = 73 u + 56 = 139 No

  9. ? 45  15 = 3 ? 3 = 3 You Try! Example 1 B. Determine whether the given value of the variable is a solution. 45  g = 3 for g = 15 45  g = 3 Yes

  10. Reading Math An equation has an equal sign, but an expression does not. An equation can be solved, but an expression can only be evaluated or simplified.

  11. ? 36  19 = 664 ? 684 = 664 Example 2: Problem Solving Connection Paulo says that his yard is 19 yards long. Jamie says that Paulo’s yard is 664 inches long. Determine if these two measurements are equal. 36  yd = in. Substitute. Multiply. Because 684  664, 19 yards is not equal to 664 inches.

  12. ? ? 84 = 84 12 7= 84 You Try! Example 2 Anna says that the table is 7 feet long. John says that the table is 84 inches long. Determine if these two measurements are equal. 12  ft = in. Substitute. Multiply. Because 84 = 84, 7 feet is equal to 84 inches.

  13. Reflection CAN YOU determine if a number is a solution to an equation?

  14. Lesson Quiz Determine whether the given value of each variable is a solution. 1. 85 = 13x for x = 5 2.w + 38 = 210 for w = 172 3. 8y = 88for y = 11 4. 16 = w 6 for w = 98 no yes yes no 5. The local pizza shop charged Kylee $172 for 21 medium pizzas. The price of a medium pizza is $8. Determine whether Kylee paid the correct amount of money. (Hint: $8 •pizzas = total cost.) no
