When you do something
to one side of an equation,
x 1  9
1
http://www.mathslideshows.com
you have to do exactly
the same thing
to the other side.
x 1  9

the addition or
subtraction operation first,
by using inverse operations.
2) Undo the multiplication or
division operation second,
by using inverse operations.
1) Undo

Remember The
Party?
http://www.mathslideshows.com
Who’s the friend and who’s the
boyfriend or girlfriend?
3x + 4 = 16
4 is the friend 3 is the boyfriend
Undo add 4 by
or girlfriend
subtracting 4
Undo multiply 3 by
dividing by 3

1) GOAL: Get the variable alone on one side
of the equation.
2) You always perform the same operation to
both sides of an equation.
3) To undo an operation you perform its
opposite operation to both sides of the
equation.
4) Undo addition or subtraction before you
undo multiplication or division.

Get the variable alone.
Subtract 4 from both sides.
+4 and -4 cancel out
Divide both sides by 2

Think about what you need to
do to isolate the variable.
Get rid of addition or subtraction
first. Second get rid of
multiplication or division.
