Unit 4: ONE STEP EQUATIONS

​

MGSE6.EE.6 Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.

MGSE.6.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.

ONE STEP EQUATIONS

What you do to the LEFT side of the
equation must also be done to the
RIGHT side to keep it balanced.

An equation is like a balance scale
because it shows that two
quantities are equal.

What is a one-step equation?

An equation where you only need to do one operation to solve for x.

What is an operation?

• addition

• subtraction

• multiplication

• division

To solve a one-step equations, you need to use the INVERSE operation.

Inverse means opposite

One-Step Equations

To solve a one-step equations, you need to use the inverse (opposite) operation.

ONE STEP EQUATIONS

• What is the variable?

To solve one step equations, you need

to ask three questions about the

equation:

• What operation is performed on the variable?
• What is the inverse operation?

(The one that will undo what is being
done to the variable)

ONE STEP EQUATIONS

Example 1 Solve x + 4 = 12

What is the variable?

Using the subtraction property of equality, subtract 4 from both
sides of the equation.

- 4

x

x + 4 = 12

What is the inverse operation (the one that will undo what is
being done to the variable)?

What operation is being performed on the variable?

- 4

8=

The subtraction property of equality tells us to subtract
the same thing on both sides to keep the equation equal.

Subtraction.

Addition.

The variable is x.

ONE STEP EQUATIONS

Example 2 Solve y - 7 = 13

What is the variable?

Using the addition property of equality, add 7 to both sides of
the equation.

y - 7 = 13
+ 7

y

The variable is y.

Subtraction.

Addition.

What operation is being performed on the variable?
What is the inverse operation (the one that will undo what is being
done to the variable)?

+ 7

= 20

The addition property of equality tells us to add the same
thing on both sides to keep the equation equal.

Example 3 Solve 6a = 12

What is the variable?

Using the division property of equality, divide both sides of the
equation by 6.

6a = 12

a

What operation is being performed on the variable? Multiplication.
What is the inverse operation (the one that will undo what is being done
to the variable)?
Division

6

= 2

The division property of equality tells us to divide the same
thing on both sides to keep the equation equal.

The variable is a.
