·  Question to engage students in discussion / Opening Discussion:
We know that the commutative and associative properties hold for all real numbers. We also know that variables are placeholders for real numbers, and the value(s) assigned to a variable that make an equation true is the "solution". If we apply the commutative and associative properties of real numbers to an expression, we obtain an equivalent
expression. Therefore, equations created this way (by applying the commutative and associative properties to one or both expressions) consist of expressions equivalent to those in the original equation.
In other words, if __is a solution to an equation, then it will also be a solution to any new equation we make by applying the commutative and associative properties to the expression in that equation.

If is a solution to an equation, it will also be a solution to the new equation formed when the same number is added to (or subtracted from) each side of the original equation, or when the two sides of the original equation are multiplied by (or divided by) the same non-zero number. These are referred to as the Properties of Equality.
If one is faced with the task of solving an equation, that is, finding the solution set of the equation:
Use the commutative, associative, distributive properties, AND use the properties of equality (adding, subtracting, multiplying by non-zeros, dividing by non-zeros) to keep rewriting the equation into one whose solution set you easily recognize. (We believe that the solution set will not change under these operations.)
