ExampleAndy has a history test in a week, but he is behind in his reading. The test will cover 120 pages in his textbook. He has read only 36 pages. If he plans to read an equal amount every day of the week to finish the 120 pages, how much must he read each day?

ExploreYou know how many pages andy must read and how

many pages he has already read. You are looking for how many pages he must read each day for the next 7 days.

Plan Let p = the number of pages read per day.Solve 36 pages plus seven times p pages is 120 pages

Plan Let p = the number of pages read per day.Solve 36 pages plus seven times p pages is 120 pages

36 + 7p = 120

Plan Let p = the number of pages read per day.Solve 36 pages plus seven times p pages is 120 pages

36 + 7p = 12036 + 7p = 120

36 – 36 + 7p = 120 – 36 Subtract 36 from each side.

36 + 7p = 12036 + 7p = 120

36 – 36 + 7p = 120 – 36 7p = 84

Subtract 36 from each side.Divide each side by 7.

Examine Since 7(12) + 36 = 120, the answer is reasonable. Andy must read 12 pages per day.

7-3 Writing Two-Step Equations

IntegrationWrite and solve an equation to find the length and width of a rectangle if the length is 8 inches longer than the width and the perimeter is 40 inches.

Let width = x.Let length = x + 8.

IntegrationWrite and solve an equation to find the length and width of a rectangle if the length is 8 inches longer than the width and the perimeter is 40 inches.

Let width = x.Let length = x + 8.Then we get,2(x) + 2(x + 8) = 40

IntegrationWrite and solve an equation to find the length and width of a rectangle if the length is 8 inches longer than the width and the perimeter is 40 inches.

Let width = x.Let length = x + 8.Then we get,2(x) + 2(x + 8) = 40Solving, we get that x = 6 and x + 8 = 14.
