DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY

Example: 4(X + 2)= 28 First in this equation you have to distribute

4(x + 2) which would

be 4x + 8= 28 Now your problem is set up to solve You minus the 8 on both side to balance the equation out. so 8-8=0 and is canceled out and 28-8=20. 4x=20 Now you divide 4x on both sides and the answer is 5.

ASSOCIATIVE PROPERTY

Example: (6 + x) + 16 To nd the answer for associative property all you have to do is move the parentheses around to a different part of the equation Answer: (6 + x) + 16= 6 + (x +16)

COMMUTATIVE PROPERTY example: 624 When nding the commutative property all you have to do is to change the order of the equation answer: 624=426

SIMPLIFYING AN EXPRESSION

example: 4(7x-3) + 2x First, when you see the parentheses you have to distribute. To distribute you have to times the 4 and 7x and the 4 times 3. So then the equation simplies down to 28x-12 + 2x. Now, you have to combine like terms. In this case, the like terms are 28x and 2x. 28x +2x= 30x 30x -12 the simplied answer for this expression is 30x-12

STEPS TO SOLVE 7x - 10 -9x = -13

example: 7x - 10 - 9x = -13 The rst step to solve this equation is to combine the variables 7x-9x=-2x Now the problem is simplied down to -2x-10 = -13 Then, you have to take the -10 and add the -10 to the other side of the equation of -13 -13 + 10= 3 The equation is -2x=-3 now you have to divide -2 into -2x and -3, -2x/2= x and -3/-2 -3/-2 is an improper factions so you have to divide -3 into -2 the answer is 1 1/2

STEPS TO SOLVE 5x/6 + x/3 -1/2 = 11/6

First you have to nd a common denominator that will t into 3,2,6 which is 6. then you have to times each fraction of the equation by 6/1 5x/6 6/1 = 5x, x/3 6/1= 2x, 1/2 6/1=3, and 11/6 6/1=11

The problem simplies down to 5x + 2x - 3 = 11 Now you have to combine 5x and 2x which equals 7x 7x - 3 = 11 Then, you have to add 3 to the other side of the equation which is 11. So, 11 + 3 = 14. Dont forget that the 3 that you had to get rid of on the rst side of the equation gets canceled out. The problem is now 7x =11. Then you have to divide 7 on both sides. 7x/7=0 or canceled out, 14/7= 2. Therefor, the answer is 2

SOLVING AND GRAPHING THE INEQUALITY 2 ! X/5

when looking at this equation, the variable is divided by 5. To solve this, you would have to do the opposite of what the variable is divided by. So you would times. Take the denominator of the fraction and times it by that number on the fraction and the 2. x/-5 -5 = x 2 -5 = -10 the solved equation is -10 ! x this could be switch around to make it easier to graph x " -10 graphing: _________________ lllllllllll -10 0

SOLVE AND GRAPH THE SOLUTION -4X + 4 " -8

-4x + 4 " -8 show work: 4-4= canceled out, -8-4= -12 -4x " -12 ----- = x ! 3 -4 -4 when solving this equation, the answer is x ! 3 graphing the equation: ______ 1 1 1

OPEN AND CLOSED CIRCLES WHEN GRAPHING INEQUALITIES ON A NUMBER LINE

When graphing inequalities on a number line, there always has to be symbols to show which numbers and variable of the equation are great than, less than, at most, or at least. When you graph this, and open circle represents less than or greater than. When using the closed circle, it means the equation used the symbols at most or at least. at most! at least " less than< greater than>
