Two-Step Equations

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 4x + 1 = 21?

Back

Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 4x + 1 = 21 after isolating the term?

Back

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for x.

Front

Solve for x: 5x + 4 = 64

Back

x = 12

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 6w - 1 = 11?

Back

Add 1 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 6w - 1 = 11 after isolating the term?

Back

Divide both sides by 6 to solve for w.

Front

Solve for x: 3x - 7 = 32

Back

x = 13

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 3x - 12 = 15?

Back

Add 12 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 3x - 12 = 15 after isolating the term?

Back

Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x.

Front

Solve for x: 3x - 12 = 15

Back

x = 9
