USING ALGEBRA TILES
 Look at this picture.
 The paper bag on the left contains a
certain number of orange blocks.
 Assuming that the paper bag weighs
nothing, can you determines how many
blocks are in the orange bag?
 What do you think we could do?
 One way is to remove four orange
blocks from each side of the balance.
 The bag contains three blocks.
 In algebra, an EQUATION is like a balance. The weights on each
side of the scale are equal.
 You can use algebra tiles to model and solve equations.

USING ALGEBRA TILES
 Solve 𝑥 + 4 = 7 using algebra tiles.
1. Model the equation.
2. Remove the same number of 1-tiles from each side of the mat so
that the variable is by itself on one side.
3. The number of 1 tiles remaining on the right side of the mat
represents the value of x.
 So, x = 3.

4-1-C: EXPLORE – SOLVE EQUATIONS
USING ALGEBRA TILES
 A zero pair is a number paired with its opposite, like 2 and -2.
You can add or subtract a zero pair from either side of an
equation without changing its value, because the value of the
zero pair is zero.
 Solve 𝑥 + 2 = −1 with algebra tiles.
1. Model the equation.
2. Add two negative tiles to the left side
of the mat and two negative tiles to the
right side of the math to form zero pairs
on the left.
3. Remove all of the zero pairs from the left side. There are 3 negative
tiles on the right side of the mat.
 So, x = -3.
 Now, with your partner, work with your tiles to complete book
page 207. #1-12.

Be sure to write in COMPLETE SENTENCES when answering #9 -12.
4-1-D: SOLVE ONE-STEP ADDITION AND
SUBTRACTION EQUATIONS
 An EQUATION is a sentence stating two quantities are equal.
 We can solve equations using INVERSE OPERATIONS.
 An inverse operation is an operation used to UNDO another operation.
 What is the inverse operation of addition?
 What is the inverse operation of multiplication?
 SUBTRACTION PROPERT Y OF EQUALIT Y
 If you subtract the same number from each side of an equation, the two
sides remain equal.
 Symbols: If 𝑎 = 𝑏, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑎 − 𝑐 = 𝑏 − 𝑐.
 Examples: 6 = 6
𝑥+2= 6

average lifespan of a lion. Write and solve an equation to find the
average lifespan of a lion.
 𝑙 − 3 = 17
4-2-B: SOLVE ONE STEP MULTIPLICATION
AND DIVISION EQUATIONS
 The expression 3𝑥 means 3 times the value of x. The
numerical factor of a multiplication expression like 3x is
called a coef ficient. (In other words, the coef ficient is the
number attached to a variable.)
 So 3 is the coefficient of 3x.
 Sometimes, you can use a drawing to represent an equation.
 Look at 3𝑥 = 12.
 This means “three groups of a something equal twelve.
 Start with three groups and then evenly divide up the twelve.
 COUNT WITH ME!
 So x = 4.
 Draw a picture for these:
 8 = 2𝑥
 2𝑥 = −8
 3𝑥 = −9

4-3-B: SOLVE TWO STEP EQUATIONS
 A T WO-STEP EQUATION has two dif ferent operations.
 To solve a two-step equation, UNDO the operations in REVERSE order
of the ORDER of OPERATIONS.

4-3-D: SOLVE EQUATIONS WITH
VARIABLES ON BOTH SIDES
 As you discovered in the Geology Rocks Equations activity, you
can use the properties of equality with variables on each side.
 The new equation is equivalent to the original equation.
 Remember the four properties of equality:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Subtraction Property of Equality
Addition Property of Equality
Division Property of Equality
Multiplication Property of Equality
 Key Concepts:

We have to use the equality properties in order to get the variable
on to ONE side of the equation.


We can only solve the equation if we can ISOLATE the variable.
Remember that what you do to one side of the equation, you MUST
do the EXACT SAME THING to the other side of the equation.

 TIP: Work with the variables first. Once you can get those to one
side, then you’re left with two -step equations.
 SIGNS: Sometimes, equations will be written dif ferently. A good
strategy is to always look at the sign in front of numbers.
4-3-D: SOLVE EQUATIONS WITH
VARIABLES ON BOTH SIDES
 It does not matter which side your variable ends up on. When
making your first move, ask yourself, which variable would be
easier to move.
 For example, look at the equation 9 − 4𝑥 = 2𝑥 + 6.
 Would it be easier to ADD 4x to both sides? Or would it be easier to
SUBRACT 2x from both sides?
 In the end, it does NOT matter which you do, you will end up with the same
answer either way.
 Now you try!
 5𝑥 + 1 = 7𝑥 − 11

 REAL WORLD EXAMPLES
 Bill averages 10 points a game and has 110 points for the season.
Aaron averages 12 points a game and has 96 points for the season.
Write and solve an equation to find how many games it will take until
they tie in points scored if they continue at the same rate.
 Remember to ask yourself:
 What stays constant no matter what?
 What is dependent upon the number of games?
 We know that Bill already has 110 points for the season – so that’s constant.
He averages 10 points PER game, so we know we’ll multiply 10 by the
number of games, g.
 We know that Aaron already has 96 points – so that’s constant. He averages
12 points a game, so we know we’ll multiply 12 by the number of games, g.
 Since we want to find the SAME g for both players, we can set these equal to
each other and solve.
 110 + 10𝑔 = 96 + 12𝑔
 On your own, practice solving equations by completing numbers

 An INEQUALIT Y is a mathematical sentence that compares two
quantities.
 <, ≤ - LESS THAN, and LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO
 (Looks like a crooked L)
 >, ≥ - GREATER THAN, and GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO
 When we are solving inequalities, we are finding value s that
make the inequality true.
 We want to identify ALL the numbers that make then inequality true.
 KEY CONCEPT
 When you add or subtract the same number from each side of an
inequality, the inequality remains true.
 Sound familiar? Inequalities are solved using the same properties of equality
that we use for equation.

 OPEN AND CLOSED CIRCLES
 When graphing inequalities, an open circle is used when the value should not
be included in the solution, as with > and < inequalities.
 A closed circle indicates the value is included in the solution, as with ≥ and ≤
inequalities.
