Find the following Algebra Tiles…

Trace each of these Algebra Tiles on your notes.

1 unitx units

Area/Name:

“1 UNIT TILE”

1 unitArea/Name:

“X TILE”Area/Name:

“Y UNIT TILE”

y units

1 unit

Name each tile by its area.

1 unit

The red side of each tile represents… one negative unit!

The other (“non-red”) side of the tile represents… one positive unit!

Multiplication and Division Equations

The variables, x and y, represent missing values in our equations today.

Our job is to find the value of the variable by isolating the variable on one side of the equation.
