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 7 - 3y = 22?

Back

Subtract 7 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 7 - 3y = 22 after isolating the variable term?

Back

Divide both sides by -3 to solve for y.

Front

Solve the equation: 7 - 3y = 22

Back

y = -5
