Two step equations

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.

What is the first step to solve this equation:

5y - 8 = 7

• Add 8 to both sides

• Subtract 8 from both sides

• Add 7 to both sides

• Subtract 7 on both sides.

What is the first step to solve this equation: $\frac{x}{3}+7=11$ 

• Add 7 to both sides

• Subtract 7 from both sides

• Add 11 to both sides

• Subtract 11 on both sides.

What does isolate the variable mean?

• Make sure the variable is not alone

• Get the variable by itself

• Subtract the variable

• Double the variable

The steps in solving 8 + 2x = 24 are:

• Add 8 to both sides and divide both sides by 2

• Add 8 to both sides and multiply both sides by 2

• Subtract 8 from both sides then multiply both sides by 2

• Subtract 8 from both sides then divide both sides by 2

solve 8 + 2x = 24

• x = 16

• x = 64

• x = 32

• x = 8

The steps in solving 5b - 6 = 24 are: 

• Add 6 to both sides and divide both sides by 5
• Add 6 to both sides and multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then divide both sides by 5

solve 5b - 6 = 24

• b = 6

• b = 150

• b = 90

• b = 18

Solve this equation:

11 + 3x = 44

• x = 11

• x = 99

• x = 165

• x = 18.3

Solve this equation: $\frac{x}{3}+7=11$ 

• x = 12

• x = 1.3

• x = 6

• x = 54
