One-Step and Two-Step Linear Equations

9 + g = 12

• g = 3

• g = 21

• g = -3

• g = 4/3

Find the value of h that makes the statement true.

6h = -42

• h = -48

• h = 7

• h = -7

• h = -252

• h = -36

h + 1.6 = 11

• h = 9.4

• h = 12.6

• h = 12.4

• h = 94

The goal of solving linear equations is to: (Pick 2)

• Move the constant

• Find the value of the variable that makes the statement true

• Find the coefficient

• Combine like terms

• Get the Variable BY ITSELF!

What would be the inverse operation for the problem below? -8p = 24

• Add 8 to both sides
