EXAMPLE 1 Using Mental Math to Solve Equations a. 15 – n = 4 b. 8x = 32 c.r 12 = 4 Solve the equation using mental math.

EXAMPLE 1 Using Mental Math to Solve Equations SOLUTION To solve an equation using mental math, think of the equation as a question. a. 15 minus what number equals 4 ? 15 – 11 = 4, so n = 11. b. 8 times what number equals 32 ? 8(4) = 32, so x = 4. c. What number divided by 12 equals 4 ? = 4, so r = 48.

GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1, 2, and 3 Tell whether the value of the variable is a solution of the equation. 6. 7n = 13 n = 2 No, 2 is not a solution. ANSWER

EXAMPLE 2 Checking Solutions a. n = 12 b. n = 28 Tell whether the value of the variable is a solution of n – 8 = 20.

EXAMPLE 2 Checking Solutions a. n – 8 = 20 SOLUTION 12 – ≠ ANSWER 12 is not a solution. Substitute for n and then simplify.

EXAMPLE 2 Checking Solutions b. n – 8 = 20 SOLUTION 20 = – is a solution. ANSWER Substitute for n and then simplify.

EXAMPLE 3 Writing an Equation Times Square The Times Square New Year’s Eve Ball drops a total of 77 feet in 60 seconds. After 54 seconds it has dropped 69 feet. How many more feet will it drop? SOLUTION You can use a verbal model to write an equation. Let d represent the distance left to drop. 77 = 69 + d Write a verbal model. 77 = Substitute. Use mental math.

EXAMPLE 3 Writing an Equation Because d = 8, the ball will drop 8 more feet. ANSWER Check You can check your answer by finding the sum of 8 and = 77 ✓
