Examples, solutions, videos, and lessons to help High School students learn how to explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step, starting from the assumption that the original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method.
Suggested Learning Targets
- Assuming an equation has a solution, construct a convincing argument that justifies each step in the solution process. Justifications may include the associative, commutative, and division properties, combining like terms, multiplication by 1, etc.
This video provides an example of how to solve a linear equation in one variable that contains parentheses. Solving Multiple Step Equations Involving Decimals
This video provides two examples of solving multiple step linear equations involving decimals. Ex 1: Solve an Equation with Fractions with Variable Terms on Both Sides
This video provides an example of how to solve a linear equation in one variable with fractions and variable terms on both sides.
This video explains how to solve a multi-step linear equation in one variable with parentheses and variables on both sides of the equation. Ex: Solve an Equation with Variables and Parentheses on Both Sides
