Solving Equations

Today in grade 9 we made progress in our equation solving skills.

We are sometimes solving by inspection, and then showing a full verification to prove that our answer is correct.

When we can’t solve by inspection, we need to have a strategy. We are able to maintain the balance if we do the same thing on both sides of the equal sign.

We are showing our steps, simplifying, and then isolating the variable. We are certainly building on our algebra skills!
