The Addition Principle of Equality2.22.2
1. Determine whether a given equation is linear.2. Solve linear equations in one variable using the
addition principle.3. Solve equations with variables on both sides of
the equal sign.4. Solve identities and contradictions.5. Solve application problems.
Linear equation: An equation in which each variable term contains a single variable raised to an exponent of 1.
Linear equation in one variable: An equation that can be written in the form ax + b = c, where a, b, and c are real numbers and a 0.

5 5= 5 5 + 2= 5 + 2 5 + 2=
We can add (or subtract) the same quantity to (from) both sides of an equation and still have a true statement.
Left side Right side
Addition Principle of EqualityAddition Principle of Equality
If a = b, then a + c = b + c for all real numbers a, b, and c.
To clear a term in an equation, add the additive inverse of that term to both sides of the equation.

x + 15 is an expression, so we can’t use the addition principle of equality!!!!
x = 3 is the same as 3 = x.

x – 19 = –34 Additive Inverse:
+ 19 + 19x + 0 = –15
x = 15
Since we added 19 to the left side, we must add 19 to the right side as well.
Check: 19 34 x
15 19 34 34 34
Replace x with –15 .
True, so –15 is the solution.
Goal: x = some number
19

x + 7 = 20 Additive Inverse:
–7 –7x + 0 = 13
x = 13
Check:
True, so 13 is the solution.
Goal: x = some number
–7
x + 7 = 20
13 + 7 = 20
20 = 20

m + 5 = 12 – 4
Additive Inverse: –5 –5
m + 0 = 3
m = 3
Check:
True, so 3 is the solution.
Goal: m = some number
–5
Simplify sides if you can.m + 5 = 8
m + 5 = 12 – 4
3 + 5 = 12 – 4
8 = 8
To Solve Linear Equations1. Simplify both sides of the equation as needed. a. Distribute to clear parentheses. b. Combine like terms.2. Use the addition principle so that all variable terms
are on one side of the equation. 3. Use the addition principle so that all constants are
on the other side.
