Exercise 14 Page 9

Isolate x using inverse operations.

x = 52

Practice makes perfect

To solve the equation, we need to isolate x using inverse operations and the Properties of the Equality.

x/8 - 1/2 = 6

LHS * 8=RHS* 8

x/8 * 8 - 1/2 * 8 = 6 * 8

MoveRightFacToNum

a/c* b = a* b/c

x * 8/8 - 1 * 8/2 = 6 * 8

Multiply

8x/8 - 8/2 = 48

Calculate quotient

x - 4 = 48

LHS+4=RHS+4

x - 4 + 4 = 48 + 4

Add terms

x = 52
