2m + 6m = 32

• m = 8
• m = 4
• m = -4
• m = -8

What is the first step (after setting up your workspace) in solving this equation:
5x + 7 = 12

• Divide by 5
• Subtract 5
• Multiply by 7
• Subtract 7

t/3 + 5 = 7

• t = 36
• t = 6
• t = 4
• t = 2/3

6p - 5 =13

• 12
• 15
• 3
• -3

Solve for n:
3(n - 5) = -12

• 1
• -1
• 9
• -9
