What is the purpose of a linear equation?

• take all the terms to one side

• solve the addition problem

• solve the multiplication problem

• for for the variable

What does the distributive property do?

• distribute it's power to the other terms

• add itself to all the terms in the parenthesis

• multiply itself to all the terms in the parenthesis

• separates the positive and negative numbers

After Ms. Suba completes the first step in this linear equation, what will it look like?

-5 - 6x = 19

• -6x = 14

• -6x = 24

• -5 + -6x = 17

• 5 + 6x = 17

The first term to move to the other side in this equation, -5 + -6x = 19, is:

• 6

• -5

• -6

• 6
