Two Sided Equations Addition and Subtraction

Solve the equation.
19 = p + 5

• 14

• p = 24

• p = 14

• p = -14

Summarize how you solve the equation below.

• Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation. (take 12 from the 12 +x side and take 12 away from 50)

• Subtract 12 from the right side of the equation. (just take 12 away from the 12 + x side)

• Subtract 50 from both sides of the equation. (take 50 away from the 12 +x side and 50 away from 50)

• Combine 50 and 12

Solve the equation.
46 = n + 19

• n = 37

• n = 27

• n = 65

• n = 30

Solve the equation.
