3. Warm-Up; Equations
1. Together, a bat and ball cost $1.10. The bat costs
$1.00 more than the ball. How much does each cost?
Write an equation for the above problem. Solve.
2. Simplify:
( + ) + ( - ) +
= + + - +
= 2 +

4. Warm-Up
Pencils Down, Mental Math. Do not answer
until I ask
1. 3x + 5 = 11 2. 2x - 4 = 6
5. 3x - 2 = 2x + 6
Last Warm-Up: Order of Operations
13 – (9 – 6) ÷ (6 – 4 + (5 – 2)2
)
Simplify

5. Class Notes:
Identifying the number of terms, like terms,
coefficients, and constants in expressions and equations
1. 3 + 7x + 3x + x No. of Terms? Like Terms?
Coefficients? Constants?
2. 2a + 5c – a + 6a 3. 7x – 3y + 3z - 2

6. Solving Equations:
-2/3 = x/6 + 1 ½
1. Change any mixed fractions to improper fractions
2. Move those terms not connected to the variable first.
3. Isolate the variable by either multiplying or dividing on
both sides.
Variable on one side of the equation
Variable on both sides of the equation
-2/3 - x/3 = x/6 + 1 ½
2. Figure out what side you want to move the variable to
before moving other terms.
