Front

What is a two-step equation?

Back

A two-step equation is an algebraic equation that requires two operations to solve for the variable.

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation -3x + 5 = -13?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation -3x + 5 = -13 after isolating the variable term?

Back

Divide both sides by -3 to solve for x.

Front

Solve for x: -30 - 5x = 120

Back

x = -30

Front

What is the process to solve the equation 3c + 5 = 23?

Back

First, subtract 5 from both sides, then divide by 3.

Front

Solve for c: 3c + 5 = 23

Back

c = 6

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 2x + 6 = 14?

Back

Subtract 6 from both sides.

Front

Solve for x: 2x + 6 = 14

Back

x = 4

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 4x + 7 = 23?

Back

Subtract 7 from both sides.

Front

Solve for x: 4x + 7 = 23

Back

x = 4
