Meyar's Unproject13, the Most Awesome Blog Post You've ever Seen

Get ready for the most horrible awesome blog post you've ever seen...

Modeling and solving one step equations

Multiplication

Solving

3x= -12
Isolate the variable ☑

3x= -12
__     __
 3       3   

Balance ☑

x= -4

Verify ☑

3x= -12
3(-4) = -12 
 -12 = -12

 Modeling

x = -4

Verify 

3x= -12
3(-4) = -12 
 -12 = -12

Division

 Solving

  r = 7

__    

 2    

Isolate the variable ☑

 (2) r = 7(2)

__    

 2    

Balance ☑

r= 14 

Verify ☑

r= 7

_

7 = 7

 

 Now go Kaboom.

Modeling and Solving Two Step Equations 

Multiplication

Solving 

Cancel the constant ☑

4v+3 =19
4v=3-3 = 19-3 
 4v =16

Balance ☑

4v =16

Simplify ☑

Cancel the coefficient ☑

4v =16
__   __
 4    4

Balance ☑

v = 4

Simplify ☑

4v+3=19     
4(4)+3=19
16+3=19
19 = 19

Verify ☑

Distributive Property

 Solving

3(x-5) =-6
 3 (x) = 3x

3x5= 15  

3x - 15 = 6

3x - 15 + 15 = 6 + 15

3x = 21

3x = 21
__   __
 3     3

x = 7

Verify

3x - 15 = 6

3(7) - 15 = 6

21 - 15 = 6

6=6

i deserve extra marks for the pictures by the way.....

have you given them to me yet?
oh you have?
