  1. Equations with the Variable on Both Sides

  2. Warm Up 1. b + 4 = 2b – 5 4. 10h + 12 = 8h + 4 • -6x – 29 = 5x – 7 5. 7a – 17 = 4a + 1 • -n + 5 = n – 11 6. 5p + 8 = 7p + 2

  3. A square and an equilateral triangle have the same perimeter. The length of each of side of the square, in feet, is x + 8. The length of each side of the equilateral triangle, in feet, is 4x. Find the length of each side of the square and the triangle and the perimeter of each figure.

  4. Peppy Pets charges a flat fee of$15 plus $3 per hour to keep a dogduring the day. Happy Hounds chargesa flat fee of $21 plus $1 per hour. Forhow many hours is the total feecharged by the companies the same?

  5. You can represent and solve equations with the variable on both sidesby using algebra tiles to model and solve equations with the variable on both sides. Youcan also use inverse operations to get the variable terms on one side of the equal sign and the constant terms on the other side, and then divide both sides by the coefficient of the resulting variable term.

  6. A handyman charges an initial fee of $150 and $25 per hour to paint. Why couldn’t this situation be modeled by the expression 150 - 25x ?

  7. What is the method for solving an equation with the same variable on both sides of the equation? Add or subtract the same terms, for example 3x or 7, on both sides of the equation to get the variable term on one side of the equation and the constant term on the other side of the equation. Then solve the resulting equation by dividing both sides by the coefficient of the variable.

  8. At Silver Gym, membership is $25 per month, and personal training sessions are $30 each. At Fit Factor, membership is $65 per month, and personal training sessions are $20 each. In one month, how many personal training sessions would Sarah have to buy to make the total cost at the two gyms equal?

  9. You can solve an equation with the variable on both sides by using inverse operations to get the variable terms on one side of the equal sign and the constant terms on the other side, and then dividing both sides by the coefficient of the resulting variable term.

  10. Exit Ticket 1. 3x + 5 = -x - 7 2. 3 - 5x = -9 + x 3. Joe’s Canoes charges an initial fee of $20 plus $4 an hour. Callie’s Canoes charges a flat rate of $14 an hour. Find the number of hours for which the total amount that both places charge would be the same. 4. Write a real-world situation that could be modeled by the equation 500 + 250x = 300x.
