1-10 Solving Equations by Adding or Subtracting
To solve an equation means to find a solution to the equation. To do this, isolate the variable—that is, get the variable alone on one side of the equal sign.
x = 8 – 5 x + 5 = 87 – 3 = y 7 = 3 + y
The variables are isolated. The variables are not isolated.
Recall that an equation is like a balanced scale. If you increase or decrease the weights by the same amount on both sides, the scale will remain balanced.
1-10 Solving Equations by Adding or Subtracting
You can add the same amount to both sides of an equation, and the statement will still be true.
2 + 3 = 5+ 4 + 4
2 + 7 = 9

1-10 Solving Equations by Adding or Subtracting
Use inverse operations when isolating a variable. Addition and subtraction are inverse operations, which means that they “undo” each other.

Solve the equation b – 7 = 24. Check your answer.
Additional Example 1: Using the Addition Property of Equality
b – 7 = 24+ 7 +7
b = 31
Think: 7 is subtracted from b, soadd 7 to both sides to isolate b.
Check
b – 7 = 24
31 – 7 = 24?
24 = 24?
Substitute 31 for b.
31 is a solution.

Solve the equation y – 3 = 21. Check your answer.
y – 3 = 21+ 3 +3
y = 24
Think: 3 is subtracted from y, soadd 3 to both sides to isolate y.
Check
y – 3 = 21
24 – 3 = 21?
21 = 21?
Substitute 24 for y.
24 is a solution.

Solve the equation t + 14 = 29. Check your answer.
t + 14 = 29– 14 – 14
t = 15
Checkt + 14 = 29
15 + 14 = 29?
29 = 29?
Think: 14 is added to t, so subtract 14 from both sides to isolate t.
Substitute 15 for t.
15 is a solution.

Solve the equation x + 11 = 36. Check your answer.
x + 11 = 36– 11 – 11
x = 25
Check
Think: 11 is added to x, so subtract 11 from both sides to isolate x.
x + 11 = 36
25 + 11 = 36?
36 = 36?
Substitute 25 for x.
25 is a solution.
1-10 Solving Equations by Adding or Subtracting
The Giants scored 13 points in a game against Dallas. They scored 7 points for a touchdown and the rest of their points for field goals. How many points did they score on field goals?
Additional Example 3: Sports Application
Let f represent the field goal points.
7 points + field goal points = points scored 7 + f = 13
7 + f = 13– 7 – 7
f = 6They scored 6 points on field goals.
Subtract 7 from both sides to isolate f.

Check It Out: Example 3
A basketball player scored 23 points during a game. Of those points, 3 were from 3-point goals and the remainder were 2 point goals. How many points did he score with 2 point goals?
Let x equal the points scored by 2 point goals.
3 point goals + 2 point goals = points scored
3 + x = 23
3 + x = 23– 3 – 3
x = 20
He scored 20 points from 2 point goals.
Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate x.
