Solving Equations with variables on both sides

What is the process or steps to solving equations?

• Cancel out the coefficient (pouches)

  Cancel out the constant (coins)

  Group the constant (coins) by the coefficient (pouches)

• stare at it and the answer will appear

• Group the constant (coins) by the coefficient (pouches)

  Cancel out the constant (coins)

  Cancel out the coefficient (pouches)

• Cancel out the constant (coins)

  Group the constant (coins) by the coefficient (pouches)

  Cancel out the coefficient (pouches)

The goal of solving a one, two, or multi-step equations is to:

• Find the constant

• Find the coefficient

• Find the value of the variable

• Be confused

What is the first step to solve this equation:
11 - 3x = 44

• Add 3 to both sides
• Subtract 11 from both sides
• Add 11 to both sides
• Divide 3 on both sides.

I am better at solving equations using...

• the pouches and coins model

• the algebra tiles model

• without models

• none because I am still confused

Inverse means

• same

• opposite

• equal
