2-7 Solving Equations with Rational Numbers
Learn to solve equations with rational
numbers.
2-7 Solving Equations with Rational Numbers
Additional Examples 1A: Solving Equations with
Decimals
Solve.
m + 4.6 = 9
m + 4.6 = 9
– 4.6 = – 4.6
m = 4.4
Use the Subtraction
Property of Equality.
Subtract 4.6 from
both sides.
Remember!
Once you have solved an equation it is a good
idea to check your answer. To check your
answer, substitute your answer for the variable
in the original equation.
