A little background information: Two soccer teams are tied at half time: 2 to
22 = 2
If each team scores 3 goals in the next half, the score will now be tied. 2 + 3 = 2 + 3
Addition Property of EqualityIf the same number is added to equal
numbers, the sums are equal.

A little more background info….Two sporting goods store charge $36 for a
soccer ball. 36 = 36
If during a spring sale, each store reduces the price by $5, both stores will be charging the same price. 36 -5 = 36 -5
If the same number is subtracted from equal numbers, the differences are equal.
The same holds true for multiplication and division.

The Keys to Solving EquationsUse the Properties of Equality
“Whatever you do to one side of the equal sign, do the same thing to the opposite side of the equal sign.”
Ex: If you multiply by -1 on the left side, then you must multiply by -1 on the right side.
Use the opposite operation to solve equations. The opposite of addition is _______________. The opposite of subtraction is _______________. The opposite of multiplication is _______________. The opposite of division is _________________.

Practice with Distributive PropertyWe use the distributive property to
eliminate the parentheses (or groupings).
9.) 2(2x + 6) = 20 10.) 6(x-3) = 24
