Solving One Variable Equations Practice

Front

What is a one-variable equation?

Back

A one-variable equation is an algebraic equation that contains only one variable, typically represented as 'x'. It can be solved to find the value of that variable.

Front

How do you isolate a variable in an equation?

Back

To isolate a variable, you perform inverse operations to both sides of the equation until the variable is alone on one side.

Front

What does it mean to solve an equation?

Back

To solve an equation means to find the value(s) of the variable(s) that make the equation true.

Front

What is the first step in solving the equation 10x + 9 = 4x - 9?

Back

The first step is to get all terms involving 'x' on one side and constant terms on the other side.

Front

What is the solution to the equation 10x + 9 = 4x - 9?

Back

The solution is x = -3.

Front

How do you solve the equation 3(x - 1) = 2x + 9?

Back

Distribute 3 to (x - 1), combine like terms, and isolate x to find the solution.

Front

What is the solution to the equation 3(x - 1) = 2x + 9?

Back

The solution is x = 12.

Front

What is the process to solve 5x - 4 + 2x = 3?

Back

Combine like terms (5x + 2x = 7x), then isolate x to find the solution.

Front

What is the solution to the equation 5x - 4 + 2x = 3?

Back

The solution is x = 1.

Front

How do you rearrange the equation 3x + y = 12 to solve for y?

Back

Subtract 3x from both sides to get y = 12 - 3x.
