  1. 6.2 Solving Equations by Using Balance Strategies

  2. This is what we have to do…

  3. Complex Equations • Some equations can’t be solved by using the ‘arrow’ diagrams we learned the other day. • Can you think of an equation that this would apply to? • Why will this not work?

  4. Modelling Equations with Variables on Both Sides Click Here! Think of each equation as a balance. You have to keep everything balanced so… … whatever you do to one side of an equation, you have to do to the other!

  5. Using Algebra Tiles to Solve Equations Algebraic Solution

  6. Let’s see what you’re made of!  How can I get rid of the denominators? Hmmm, can I make this simpler?

  7. Assignment Time! • Page 280: Go over #4, 5, 6 in class. • Complete: 8b, 9, 10bd, 11acf, 12abc, 13, 17ac, 18abc, 19ad, 20ab, 21bd • WRITE THE ORIGINAL EQUATION IN YOUR BOOK AND… • MAKE SURE YOU SHOW ALL STEPS!!
