1. Lesson 1-5 Solving Equations with Rational Numbers
Obj: The student will be able to solve equations with rational numbers. HWK COS: 8-EE7, 8-EE7b

2. Properties of Equality
1) Addition Property of Equality – You can add the same number to both sides of an equation and the sides remain equal Arithmetic Algebra 3 = 3 if a = b = then a + c = b + c 2) Subtraction Property of Equality – You can subtract the same number from each side of an equation and the sides remain equal Arithmetic Algebra 7 = 7 if a = b 7 – 3 = 7 – 3 then a – c = b – c

3. 3) Multiplication Property of Equality – You can multiply each side of an equation by the same nonzero number and the sides remain equal Arithmetic Algebra 5 = 5 if a = b and c ≠ 0 5 • 3 = 5 • 3 then ac = bc 4) Division Property of Equality – You can divide each side of an equation by the same nonzero number and the sides remain equal Arithmetic Algebra 12 = 12 if a = b and c ≠ = 12 4 then 𝑎 𝑐 = 𝑏 𝑐

4. Solve each equation. SHOW YOUR WORK.
