Review solving equations

What would be the best first step to solving the equation in one step?

• multiply both sides by 3
• multiply both sides by -3
• divide both sides by -3
• add 3 to each side

Solve the equation: 
x + 7 = 12

• x = 5
• x = 19
• x = -5
• x = 84

Solve the equation:
x - 4 = -3

• x = -7
• x = 1
• x = 12
• x = -12

Solve the equation:
4p = 16

• p = 12
• p = -12
• p = -4
• p = 4

Solve the equation:
-5x = 25

• x = 20
• x = -20
• x = -5
• x = 5

3c + 5 = 23

• c = 3
• c = 6
• c = 7
• c = 18

4x + 7 = 23

• x = 16
• x = 4
• x = 9
• x = 12

^x/₄- 3 = 9

• 48
• 24
• 3
• 36

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.

8v - 4(v + 8) = 8

• 2
• 10
• 4
• -4
