  1. Multi-Step Equations Sol A.4

  2. To solve multi-step equations you form a series of simpler equivalent equations. • To do this use the properties of equality, inverse operations and properties of real numbers. • You use the properties until you isolate the variable.

  3. Combining Like Terms 5 = 5m – 23 + 2m 5 = 5m + 2m – 23 Comm. Prop. Of Addition 5 = 7m – 23 Combine Like Terms 5 + 23 = 7m – 23 + 23 Add 23 to both sides 28 = 7m Simplify 28/7 = (7m)/7 Divide each side by 7 4 = m Check your work.

  4. Your Turn 11m – 8 – 6m = 22

  5. Your Turn • -2y + 5 + 5y = 14

  6. Solving a Multi-Step Equation Word Problem • Turn to page 95 in your textbook and lets look at “Problem 2” together.

  7. Solving an Equation Using the Distributive Property -8(2x – 1) = 36 -16x + 8 = 36 Distributive Property -16x + 8 – 8 = 36 – 8 Subtract 8 from both sides -16x = 28 Simplify (-16x)/-16 = 28/-16 Divide each side by -16 X = -7/4 Simplify

  8. Your Turn 18 = 3(2x – 6)

  9. Solving an Equation That contains Fractions There are 2 methods that you can you to solve an equation that contains fractions. I will show you both methods and you need to try them both to decide which works best for you!

  10. Method 1 Write the terms using a common denomitaor • 3/4x – 1/3x = 10

  11. Method 2Clear the fractions from the equation • 3x/4 – x/3 = 10

  12. Your turn • (2b)/5 + (3b)/4 = 3

  13. Your Turn • 1/9 = 5/6 – m/3
