Here are the steps in solving a multi-step equation: DCI method

• Distributive Property

• Combine like terms (on the same side of the equation)

• Use Inverse operations to put variables and constants on opposite sides of the equation.

• Isolate the variable

Multiple Choice

Let's Practice using the Distributive Property.

6(x-3)

• x-18

• 6x+18

• 6x-18

• 6x-9
