2-1Solving Equations by Adding or Subtracting
An equation is a mathematical statement that two expressions are equal.
A solution of an equation is a value of the variable that makes the equation true.
To find solutions, isolate the variable. A variable is isolated when it appears by itself on one side of an equation, and not at all on the other side.

Subtraction Addition
Isolate a variable by using inverse operations which "undo" operations on the variable.
An equation is like a balanced scale. To keep the balance, perform the same operation on both sides.

A person's maximum heart rate is the highest rate, in beats per minute, that the person's heart should reach. One method to estimate maximum heart rate states that your age added to your maximum heart rate is 220. Using this method, write and solve an equation to find a person's age if the person's maximum heart rate is 185 beats per minute.

Use the Commutative Property of Addition.
8x – 21 – 5x = –15
8x – 5x – 21 = –15

Solve 10y – (4y + 8) = –20

Write subtraction as addition of the opposite.10y + (–1)(4y + 8) = –20
10y + (–1)(4y) + (–1)( 8) = –20 Distribute –1 on the left side.
Combine like terms.
10y – 4y – 8 = –20
6y – 8 = –20+ 8 + 8
6y = –12
y = –2
Simplify.
Since 8 is subtracted from 6y, add 8 to both sides to undo the subtraction.
6 66y = –12 Since y is multiplied by 6,
divide both sides by 6 to undo the multiplication.

Example 1: Business Application
Mr. Cortez earns a base salary of $26,000 plus a sales commission of 5%. His total sales for one year were $300,000. Find his total pay for the year.
Write the formula for total pay.total pay = base salary + commission Write the formula for commission.
Substitute values given in the problem.= 26,000 + 5% of 300,000= base + % of total sales
Write the percent as a decimal.= 26,000 + (0.05)(300,000)Multiply.= 26,000 + 15,000Add.= 41,000
Mr. Cortez’s total pay was $41,000.
