7.EE.4a
I CAN solve word problems leading to equations of the form
px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific
rational numbers.
I CAN solve equations of these forms fluently.
I CAN compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying
the sequence of the operations used in each approach
MY VOCABULARY
Inverse Operations that undo each
operations other´s effect.
For example, addition and
subtraction are inverse
operations. So are multiplication
and division.
Distributive The distributive property states
property that multiplying a sum by a
number gives the same result as
multiplying each addend by the
number and then adding the
products together.
4 × (2 + 3) = 4 × 2 + 4 × 3

 Solving Two Step Equations Algebraically
Two step equations are equations that can be solved in to steps. One step is to
undo the addition or subtraction, the other is to undo the multiplication or
division.
EXAMPLE:

3w + 5 = 23

2x + 3 = 9 STEPS 3x + 2 = 23 STEPS

-2y – 7 = 3 STEPS 2
4 + r = -2 STEPS
5
Some two step equations can be solved more than one way!
EXAMPLE:
Method 1

2(w + 3) = 14

Method 2

2(w + 3) = 14
2(x + 3) = 10 STEPS 2(x + 3) = 10 STEPS

3(2y – 3) = -33 STEPS 3(2y – 3) = -33 STEPS

(8x + 12)=7 STEPS 1
(8x + 12)=7 STEPS

13. KITTENS: Kittens weigh about 100 grams when born and gain 7 to 15 grams
per day. If a kitten weighed 100 grams at birth and gained 8 grams per day,
in how many days will the kitten triple its weight?

14. TEMPERATURE: Room temperature ranges from 20°C to 25°C. Find the
range of room temperature in °F. Use the formula F – 32 = 1.8C to convert
from the Celsius scale to the Fahrenheit scale.
