3.3 Concept Activity (p. 130)<br />
1. 9 2x 1 3x<br />
<br />
3. 5x 2 3x 14<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
So, the solution is 6.<br />
4. Yes. Sample answer: Removing x-tiles has no effect on<br />
the 1-tiles and vice versa.<br />
5. Sample answer: Solving an equation with variables on<br />
both sides of the equal sign adds one extra step, because<br />
you must first get all variable terms on one side.<br />
So, the solution is 8.<br />
