How do you solve the equation -8 - 10r = 52?

Back

Add 8 to both sides: -10r = 60. Then divide by -10: r = -6.

What is the first step to solve the equation 6 + 5n = 16?

Back

Subtract 6 from both sides: 5n = 10.

How do you find the value of n in the equation n/6 + 4 = 7?

Back

Subtract 4 from both sides: n/6 = 3. Then multiply by 6: n = 18.

What does it mean to isolate a variable in an equation?

Back

Isolating a variable means to manipulate the equation so that the variable is on one side and all other terms are on the other side.

Front

How do you solve the equation -4 + m/16 = -3?

Back

Add 4 to both sides: m/16 = 1. Then multiply by 16: m = 16.

Front

What is the solution to the equation -8 - 7m = -22?

Back

Add 8 to both sides: -7m = -14. Then divide by -7: m = 2.

Front

What is the second step in solving the equation 6 + 5n = 16 after subtracting 6?

Back

Divide both sides by 5: n = 2.

Front

What operation do you perform to both sides of the equation to eliminate a constant term?

Back

You subtract the constant term from both sides.
