Solve the following equation:
2m + 6m + 2m = 20
m = 40
m = 20
m = 3
m = 2

The goal is to have the variables on one side of the equation while having the constants (numbers) on the other
x = "constant"
To do that, we remove as many as we can from both sides
17
18
Fill in the Blanks
After removing the 3x from both sides, what will the equation look like?
DO NOT USE SPACES
Type answer...
19
We can move on to solving equations like you are used to
By removing the constants (on both sides) so that we have the variable (x) by itself
20
Multiple Choice
How many ones (yellow squares) can we remove from both sides?
2

6
-2
21
We can subtract 2 from both sides
22
Fill in the Blanks
After subtracting 2 from both sides. How does the equation look like now?
DO NOT USE SPACES

Record the examples and information on the notes page or in your notebook.
Complete the "You Try" and check your work with Mrs. Jackson.
Then, continue the rest of the lesson to get at least an 80%
24
- Subtract 7x from both sides
- -13 = -10x - 33
- Add 33 to both sides
20 = -10x
- divide both sides by -10 and you still get x = -2
