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

What is the first step to solve
–5x – 8.4 = 17?

• divide by –5 on both sides
• subtract 8.4 from both sides
• subtract 17 from both sides
• add 8.4 to both sides

3y+6+4y-7=-8

• y=-1
• y=-8
• y=1
• y=7

10(h+1)-4=76

• h=10
• h=4
• h=7
• h=76
