Solving Multi-Step Linear Equations with Variables

The video tutorial explains how to solve a multistep linear equation in one variable. It begins with simplifying both sides of the equation by distributing terms and combining like terms. The tutorial then demonstrates how to isolate the variable X and solve the equation. Finally, it covers converting the solution into different forms, such as an improper fraction, mixed number, and decimal.
