Today’s Lesson: What: One-step equations (Addition & Subtraction) Why: To solve addition and subtraction one-step equations using both algebra tiles and the traditional paper/ pencil method.
Solving Equations: GOAL: To get the variable by __________________ (“isolating” the variable)!! RULE: What you do to one side of the equals (=) sign, you MUST do to______________________________ (“Golden Rule of Algebra”)! itself the other side.
Addition Equations: • x + 8 = 2 What number is with “x”? We have to get “x” by itself! Paper/Pencil Method: Paper/Pencil Method: • 2) • x + (-3) = 7
x = -51 x = 25 x = 50
Subtraction Equations: • x -4 = 7 Paper/Pencil Method: Paper/Pencil Method: • 2) • x - 3 = -2
x = 20 x = 94 x = 31
What about the “double negative” equations? x = 3 x = -20 x = 10
END OF LESSON The next slides are student copies of the notes for this lesson. These notes were handed out in class and filled-in as the lesson progressed. NOTE: The last slide(s) in any lesson slideshow (entitled “Practice Work”) represent the homework assigned for that day.
