Solving 1-Step Equations

Solve the equation:
4p = 16

• p = 12
• p = -12
• p = -4
• p = 4

Solve for x:

• x = 20
• x = 7
• x = 10
• x = 3

17 = x + 3

• x = 20
• x = 14
• x = 13
• x = 19

x - 62 = 123
How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation?

• Add 62 to each side. 
• Subtract 62 from each side.
• Multiply each side by 62.
• Add 123 to each side.

10x = 90

• x = 80
• x = 100
• x = 10
• x = 9

Solve the equation
3x = 27. 

• x = 24
• x = 81
• x = 9
• x = 3

x ÷ 2 = 12

• x = 24
• x = 6
• x = 20
• x = 10

What is the correct step to solve for the variable?
15 = m - 5

• add 15 to both sides
• add 5 to both sides
• subtract 15 from both sides
• subtract 5 from both sides

m - 5 = -10

• -15

• 15

• -5

• 5

how would you solve this equation: 9x=153?

• multiply by 9 on both sides

• divide by 9 on both sides

• add 9 to both sides

• subtract 9 from both sides
