3. Solving 1 Step Equations If you want to take yourself and some friends to the movies and it costs $10 per ticket and you have $50 how many people can you take. To solve this equation you must use the rules for solving equations. First, divide the problem by the equals sign. Next, do the inverse operation to get the variable alone. ex. 10n=50 10 10 n=5

4. Now You Try 1.7+n=22 2.X-12=37 3.14a=42 4.b=104 8 5.-19+m=-2 *Don’t forget to check

5. * write an equation and solve If Bob buys candy for $2 & a soda, and his final cost is $6.50, how much did the soda cost

6. If four friends go to the movies and the tickets final cost is $60, how much was each ticket?

7. If tonight ten more people see transformers 3 than the night before, and 34 saw it the night before how many people will see it tonight

8. Solving 2 step Equations Say if you buy 3 tickets to the movies and spend $4 on popcorn and your final cost is $31. How could you possibly figure out how much each ticket cost? BUY USING THE RULES FOR 2 STEP EQUATIONS! 1.First divide by the equals sign. 2.Then, circle the variable. 3.Next, get rid of the number next to the variable with inverse operations. 4.Finally, multiply or divide.

9. Your Turn 1.5+6n=-1 2.9-8q=47 3.16=2r+6 4.-16=-2r+6 5.11(a+3)=90
