Core Concepts
Algebraic Properties of Equality
Let a, b, and c be real numbers.

Addition Property of Equality If a  b, then a  c  b  c.

Subtraction Property of Equality If a  b, then a  c  b  c.

Multiplication Property of Equality If a  b, then a  c  b  c, c  0.

a b
Division Property of Equality If a  b, then  , c  0.
c c

Substitution Property of Equality If a  b, then a can be substituted for b


(or b for a) in any equation or expression.

Examples: Justifying steps. Solve the equations and justify each step.

The formula for the surface area S of a cone is S   r 2   rs, where r is the radius
and s is the slant height. Solve the formula for s. Justify each step. Then find the slant
height of the cone when the surface area is 220 square feet and the radius is 7 feet.
Approximate to the nearest tenth.
