=Welcome to Math Lab Unit 3 - Solving One-Step Equations=

 The tallest building in Los Angeles, Library Tower, rises 565 ft higher than the venerable City Hall to stand 1017 ft tall. Use the equation //h// + 565 = 1017 to find the height //h// of City Hall.

**Common Core Standards 6.EE **
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions **. ** 5. Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation or inequality true. 6. Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set. 7. Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form //x // + //p // = //q // and //px // = //q // for cases in which //p //, //q // and //x // are all nonnegative rational numbers.
 * Reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities. **

** and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients **
