  1. Solving Equations Using Multiplication and Division

  2. Solve for 1x • If there is more than 1x, divide both sides by the number to make 1.

  3. EXAMPLE 3 3

  4. EX 2

  5. EX 3

  6. EX 4

  7. EX5Write the equation and solve: • Negative six times a number is the same as negative forty-eight.

  8. Solve for 1x • If x is a fraction, multiply to cancel the denominator.

  9. EXAMPLE (5) (5)

  10. EX 2

  11. EX 3

  12. EX 4

  13. EX 5Write the equation and solve: • One-fourth of a number is twelve.

  14. Solve for 1x • If x is a fraction with a numerator other than 1 • 1st multiply to cancel the denominator • 2nd divide to make 1

  16. EX 2

  17. EX 3

  18. EX 4

  19. EX 5Write the equation and solve: • Three-fifths of a number is negative nine.

  20. Other Uses Of Multiplication • Multiplication can be used to cancel all fractions from an equation, even if x is not a fraction. • If there is more than one fraction with different denominators, multiply by a common denominator.

  21. EX 1

  22. EX 2

  23. EX 3Write the equation and solve: • Negative six times a number is equal to one and a half.

  24. 1 Ciro puts of the money he earns from mowing lawns into a college education fund. This year Ciro added $285 to his college education fund. Write and solve an equation to find how much money Ciro earned mowing lawns this year. 4 Example 4: Application one-fourth times earnings equals college fund Write an equation to represent the relationship. Substitute 285 for c. Since m is divided by 4, multiply both sides by 4 to undo the division. Ciro earned $1140 mowing lawns. m = $1140

  25. Check it Out! Example 4 The distance in miles from the airport that a plane should begin descending, divided by 3, equals the plane's height above the ground in thousands of feet. A plane began descending 45 miles from the airport. Use the equation to find how high the plane was flying when the descent began. Distance divided by 3 equals height in thousands of feet Write an equation to represent the relationship. Substitute 45 for d. 15 = h The plane was flying at 15,000 ft when the descent began.
