Evaluating Algebraic Expressions
California
Standards
AF4.0 Students solve simple linear
equations and inequalities over the rational
numbers.

Algebraic Expressions
m + 4.6 = 9
m + 4.6 = 9
– 4.6 – 4.6
m = 4.4
Since 4.6 is added
to m, subtract 4.6
from both sides to
undo the addition.
Remember!
Once you have solved an equation, it is a good
idea to check your answer. To check your
answer, substitute your answer for the variable
in the original equation.

A. m + 9.1 = 3
Since 9.1 is added to
m + 9.1 = 3
m, subtract 9.1 from
–9.1 = –9.1
both sides to undo the
m = –6.1
addition.
