Subtract Integers
To subtract an integer, add its opposite.
Example 1
Find 6 9.
6 9 = 6 + (9)
= 3
To subtract 9, add 9.
Simplify.
Example 2
Find 10 (12).
10 (12) = 10 + 12
=2
Example 3
Evaluate a b if a = 3 and b = 7.
a b = 3 7
= 3 + (7)
= 10

Solve Two-Step Equations
To solve a two-step equation, undo the addition or subtraction first. Then undo the multiplication or division.
Example 1
Solve 7v 3 = 25. Check your solution.
7v 3 = 25
+3 = +3
7v = 28
7 v 28
=
7
7
v=4
Check
7v 3 = 25
Write the original equation.
7(4) 3 25 Replace v with 4.
28 3 = 25
Multiply.
25 = 25
The solution checks.
The solution is 4.
Example 2
Solve 10 = 8 + 3x. Check your solution.
10 =
8 + 3x
8 = 8
18 =
3x
18 3 x
=
3
x
6 = x
Check
10 = 8 + 3x Write the original equation.
10 8 +3(6) Replace x with 6.
10 8 + (18)
Multiply.
10 = 10
The solution checks.
The solution is 6.

Solve Proportional Relationships
A proportion is an equation that states that two ratios are equivalent. To determine whether a pair of ratios forms a
proportion, use cross products. You can also use cross products to solve proportions.
Example 1
Determine whether the pair of ratios
20
24
and
12
18
form a proportion.
24 12 = 288
20 18 = 360
Since the cross products are not equal, the ratios do not form a proportion.
Example 2
Solve
12 k
=
.
30 70
12 k
=
30 70
12 70 = 30 k
840 = 30k
840 30 k
=
30
30
28 = k
The solution is 28.
