Equations with Variables on Both Sides

Equations with Variables on Both Sides

Learning Goal: I will be able to solve equations with variables on both sides (variables to the left, regular numbers to the right)

Today we will be starting at the combine like terms on the same side of the wall level.

You will work from this level back down to the bottom level we learned yesterday.

​Moving up a level on the pyramid

​The next slides will be problems for you to try and solve on your own.

Take notes/write from this video

Fill in the Blanks

Solve the following equation in your notebook, use your pyramid and notes from the previous problem to help you

5x - 2 = 3x + 4

x =
