Holt CA Course Solving Equations by Multiplying At Elk Meadows Park an aspen tree is one-third the height of a pine tree. Teacher Example 3: Application height of aspen = height of pine 3 The aspen tree is 14 feet tall. How tall is the pine tree? Let h represent the height of the pine tree. 42 = h Multiply both sides by 3 to undo the division. 3 3 h 3 3 14 = Substitute 14 for height of aspen. h is divided by 3. h 3 14 = The pine tree is 42 feet tall.
Holt CA Course Solving Equations by Multiplying Student Practice 3: Let w represent her father’s weight. 190 = w Multiply both sides by 2 to undo the division. 2 2 w 2 2 95 = Substitute 95 for Jamie’s weight. w is divided by 2. w 2 95 = Jamie’s father weighs 190 pounds. Jamie weighs one-half as much as her father. Jamie’s weight = father’s weight 2 Jamie weighs 95 pounds. How many pounds does her father weigh?
