Solving a Two-Step Equation

3c + 5 = 23

• c = 3
• c = 6
• c = 7
• c = 18

4x + 7 = 23

• x = 16
• x = 4
• x = 9
• x = 12

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.

Figure out what n equals in this equation:
6n + 4 = -26

• n=-6
• n= -5
• n= 8
• n= -4

In the equation 4y +-9 =-36
y = -4

• True
•  francine
• False

The goal of solving two-step equations is to:

• francine
• Find the coefficient 
• Find the value of the variable

5x+4=^-6

• 2
• -2
• 10
• 15

-4x+1=21

• x=120
• x=5
• x=30
• x=-5

-6x=18

• 3
• -3
• 12
• -12

y/3 + 6 = 9

• 15
• 9
• 3
• 12
