Match

Match the appropriate step to each equation.

• 180 = 8x - 20 + 2x

• 35 = 7x

• 15 = 3x - 6

• $$8\ =\ \frac{x}{42}$$

• 29 = 3x + 8

Combine like terms.

Divide both sides by _.

Add _ to both sides.

Multiply both sides by _.

Subtract both side by _.

• Combine like terms.

• Divide both sides by _.

• Add _ to both sides.

• Multiply both sides by _.

• Subtract both side by _.

Match

Match the appropriate step to solve each inequality.

• 150 > 5x - 20 + 4x

• 35 < 7x

• 15 ≥ 5x - 15

• $$8\ >\ \frac{x}{42}$$

• 49 ≤ 4x + 9

Combine like terms.

Divide both sides by _.

Add _ to both sides.

Multiply both sides by _.

Subtract both side by _.

• Combine like terms.

• Divide both sides by _.

• Add _ to both sides.

• Multiply both sides by _.

• Subtract both side by _.

When x is on the right side of the equation or inequality...

If 4 > x then x < 4

You can flip an equation to make it easier for yourself.

If we have 42 > 7x

then we can rewrite it 7x < 42
