Vocabulary



An equation is a mathematical statement that two expressions are equivalent. The solution set of an equation is the value or values of the variable that make the equation true. A linear equation in one variable can be written in the form ax = b, where a and b are constants and a ≠ 0.



Linear Equations in One variable

Nonlinear Equations

4x = 8

3x – = –9

2x – 5 = 0.1x +2

Notice that the variable in a linear equation is not under a radical sign and is not raised to a power other than 1. The variable is also not an exponent and is not in a denominator.

Solving a linear equation requires isolating the variable on one side of the equation by using the properties of equality.

+ 1 = 32

+ 1 = 41

3 – 2x = –5





To isolate the variable, perform the inverse or opposite of every operation in the equation on both sides of the equation. Do inverse operations in the reverse order of operations.



The local phone company charges $12.95 a month for the first 200 of air time, plus $0.07 for each additional minute. If Nina’s bill for the month was $14.56, how many additional minutes did she use?

Let m represent the number of additional minutes that Nina used.

Solve.

12.95 + 0.07m = 14.56

0.07m = 1.610.07 0.07

m = 23

Subtract 12.95 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 0.07.

Nina used 23 additional minutes.

44 cups fit between the 14 in. shelves.

Solve.

Subtract 3.25 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 0.25.

Example 2: Solving Equations with the Distributive Property

Solve 4(m + 12) = –36

Divide both sides by 4.

Method 1

The quantity (m + 12) is multiplied by 4, so divide by 4 first.

4(m + 12) = –364 4

m + 12 = –9

m = –21

–12 –12 Subtract 12 from both sides.



Check 4(m + 12) = –36

4(–21 + 12) –36

4(–9) –36–36 –36

Example 2 Continued

Distribute 4.

Distribute before solving.

4m + 48 = –36

4m = –84


Divide both sides by 4.=4m –84 4 4

m = –21

Method 2



Divide both sides by 3.

3(2 – 3p) = 42

3 3

Check It Out! Example 2a

Solve 3(2 –3p) = 42.

Subtract 2 from both sides.

–3p = 12

2 – 3p = 14 –2 –2

Check It Out! Example 2b

Solve –3(5 – 4r) = –9.

Subtract 5 from both sides.

–4r = –2

5 – 4r = 3 –5 –5

If there are variables on both sides of the equation, (1) simplify each side. (2) collect all variable terms on one side and all constants terms on the other side. (3) isolate the variables as you did in the previous problems.



Example 3: Solving Equations with Variables on Both Sides

Simplify each side by combining like terms.

–11k + 25 = –6k – 10

Collect variables on the right side.

Add.

Collect constants on the left side.

Isolate the variable.

+11k +11k

25 = 5k – 10

35 = 5k

5 5

7 = k

+10 + 10

Solve 3k– 14k + 25 = 2 – 6k – 12.




Solve 3(w + 7) – 5w = w + 12.

You have solved equations that have a single solution. Equations may also have infinitely many solutions or no solution.

An equation that is true for all values of the variable, such as x = x, is an identity. An equation that has no solutions, such as 3 = 5, is a contradiction because there are no values that make it true.



Solve 3v – 9 – 4v = –(5 + v).

Example 4A: Identifying Identities and Contractions

3v – 9 – 4v = –(5 + v)

Simplify.–9 – v = –5 – v + v + v

–9 ≠ –5 x Contradiction

The equation has no solution. The solution set is the empty set, which is represented by the symbol .



Solve 2(x – 6) = –5x – 12 + 7x.

Example 4B: Identifying Identities and Contractions

2(x – 6) = –5x – 12 + 7x Simplify.2x – 12 = 2x – 12

–2x –2x

–12 = –12 Identity

The solutions set is all real number, or .



Solve 5(x – 6) = 3x – 18 + 2x.

The equation has no solution. The solution set is the empty set, which is represented by the symbol .

An inequality is a statement that compares two expressions by using the symbols <, >, ≤, ≥, or ≠. The graph of an inequality is the solution set, the set of all points on the number line that satisfy the inequality.

The properties of equality are true for inequalities, with one important difference. If you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol.



These properties also apply to inequalities expressed with >, ≥, and ≤.



To check an inequality, test• the value being compared with x • a value less than that, and• a value greater than that.

Helpful Hint



Solve and graph 8a –2 ≥ 13a + 8.

Example 5: Solving Inequalities

Subtract 13a from both sides.8a – 2 ≥ 13a + 8

–13a –13a

–5a – 2 ≥ 8Add 2 to both sides. +2 +2

–5a ≥ 10Divide both sides by –5 and reverse the inequality.

–5 –5

–5a ≤ 10

a ≤ –2



Example 5 Continued

Check Test values in the original inequality. –10 –9 –8 –7 –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1

Test x = –4 Test x = –2 Test x = –1

8(–4) – 2 ≥ 13(–4) + 8 8(–2) – 2 ≥ 13(–2) + 8 8(–1) – 2 ≥ 13(–1) + 8

–34 ≥ –44

So –4 is a solution.

So –1 is not a solution.


–18 ≥ –18 –10 ≥ –5 x

Solve and graph 8a – 2 ≥ 13a + 8.



Solve and graph x + 8 ≥ 4x + 17.

Subtract x from both sides.x + 8 ≥ 4x + 17

–x –x

8 ≥ 3x +17Subtract 17 from both sides.–17 –17

–9 ≥ 3xDivide both sides by 3.

3 3

–9 ≥ 3x

–3 ≥ x or x ≤ –3




Check Test values in the original inequality.

Test x = –6 Test x = –3 Test x = 0

–6 + 8 ≥ 4(–6) + 17 –3 +8 ≥ 4(–3) + 17 0 +8 ≥ 4(0) + 17

2 ≥ –7


So 0 is not a solution.
