1) Solve 2x - 4y = 7 for xTo get x by itself, what is the first step? • Add 2x • Subtract 2x • Add 4y • Subtract 4y
Ask yourself, What is the first thing we are doing to x? What is the second thing? 1) Solve 2x - 4y = 7 for xUse a DO-UNDO chart to help determine the steps DO UNDO · 2 -4y Follow the steps in the ‘undo’ column to isolate the variable. +4y ÷ 2 Complete the undo column by writing the opposite (inverse) operations in opposite order.
D U 1) Solve 2x - 4y = 7 for x · 2 -4y +4y ÷ 2 + 4y = + 4y 2x = 7 + 4y 2 2 • Draw the center line (whatever we do on one side, we must do on the other) • Add 4y to both sides • Simplify • Divide both sides by 2 • Does it simplify? This fraction cannot be simplified because both terms in the numerator are not divisible by 2.
2) Solve 2x - 4y = 7 for yTo get y by itself, what is the first step? • Add 2x • Subtract 2x • Add 4y • Subtract 4y
D U 2) Solve 2x - 4y = 7 for y · -4 +2x -2x ÷ -4 - 2x = - 2x -4y = 7 - 2x -4 -4 • Draw the center line • Subtract 2x from both sides • Simplify • Divide both sides by -4 • Does it simplify? Nope!
3) Solve for y: 4x – 2y = 12 • y = -4x + 12 • y = 4x - 12 • y = -2x + 6 • y = 2x - 6
D U 3) Solve for y: 4x – 2y = 12 · -2 + 4x - 4x ÷ -2 - 4x - 4x -2y = 12 – 4x -2 -2 y = -6 + 2x or y = 2x - 6 • Draw the center line • Subtract 4x from both sides • Simplify • Divide both sides by -2 • Does it simplify? Yes!
4) The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is V = LWH. Which equation solves the formula for L? • L = V - WH
5) The formula for the volume of a pyramid is V = . Which equation solves the formula for h? • h = 3Vb
c ax + b = c – b ax = c – b x = a EXAMPLE Solve a literal equation Solve ax + b =cforx. Then use the solution to solve 2x + 5 = 11. a = 2, b = 5, c = 11 SOLUTION Solve ax + b = cfor x. STEP 1 Write original equation. Subtract bfrom each side. Assume a 0. Divide each side by a.
x = = c – b 11– 5 = 3 a 2 The solution of 2x + 5 = 11 is 3. ANSWER EXAMPLE Solve a literal equation Usethe solution to solve 2x + 5 = 11. STEP 2 Solution of literal equation. Substitute 2 for a, 5 for b, and 11 for c. Simplify.
; 3 ANSWER c x= ; 4 ANSWER a–b x = a – c b PRACTICE Solve the literal equation for x. Then use the solution to solve the specific equation 1.a – bx =c; 12 – 5x = –3 2.ax =bx+ c; 11x = 6x + 20
3 2 3x + 2y 8 = 2y 8 – 3x = y = 4 – x EXAMPLE Rewrite an equation Write 3x + 2y = 8 so that yis a function of x. Solve for y. Write original equation. Subtract 3xfrom each side. Divide each side by 2.
The area Aof a triangle is given by the formula A = bhwhere bis the base and his the height. 1 1 2 2 a. Solve the formula for the height h. b. Use the rewritten formula to find the height of the triangle shown, which has an area of 64.4 square meters. a. A bh = bh 2A = EXAMPLE 3 Solve and use a geometric formula SOLUTION Write original formula. Multiply each side by 2.
2A 2A = h b b b. Substitute 64.4 for Aand 14 for bin the rewritten formula. h = 2(64.4) = 14 ANSWER The height of the triangle is 9.2 meters. EXAMPLE 3 Solve and use a geometric formula Divide each side by b. Write rewritten formula. Substitute 64.4 for Aand 14 for b. =9.2 Simplify.
5 4 ANSWER y = 5 – x PRACTICE 3. Write 5x + 4y = 20 so that yis a function of x.
