Sec 2 – 3: Solving Equations by Adding and
Subtracting

Objectives:
1) To solve equations by adding.
2) To solve equations by subtracting.
Vocabulary-

Equation- A mathematical sentence with an equal

sign.

Open Sentence- An equation with one or more

variables.

Solution of an Equation- A value for a variable that

makes an equation true.

Inverse Operations- Operations that undo each other.

Key Concepts

 Addition Property of Equality

 If you add the same value to each side of an
equation, the two sides remain equal.

 Subtraction Property of Equality

 If you subtract the same value from each side of
an equation, the two sides remain equal.
Ex 1) Solving Equations by Adding

Solve x – 34 = 46, then check your answer.

Check Understanding: Example 1
Solve each equation. Check your answer.

a) x – 104 = 64

b) y – 129 = -72

c) -148 + h = 179
Ex 2) Real-World Problem Solving

Sporting Goods Your friends skateboard

cost $245 less than his mountain bike. His
skateboard cost $45. How much did the
mountain bike cost?
Check Understanding: Example 2

A paperback book cost $19 less than

its hardcover edition. The paperback
book cost $7.95. How much does the
hardcover edition cost?
Ex 3) Solving Equations by Subtracting

Solve 114 + m = 249, then check your answer.

Check Understanding: Example 3

Solve each equation. Check your answer.

a) n + 84 = 157

b) p + 115 = -17

c) 18 + h = 137
