Solving Multi-Step Equations

Which equation has a solution of x = 1

• 2x + 1 = 12

• 5x - 2 = 3

• x + 1 = x - 1

• 5 - x = 6

18+m=8

• m=0

• m=10

• m=-10

• m=8

-16+ x= -15

• 2

• 0

• -1

• 1

-4x+1=21

• x=120

• x=5

• x=30

• x=-5

-(n - 8) = -2

• 6

• 10

• -10

• -6

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.

Solve:

7x + 19 = -2x + 55

• 4

• 14.8

• 8.2

• -4

Solve:

2(2x + 3) = -6(x + 9)

• 2

• 6

• -6

• 7.5

Solve:

2(4x - 3) - 8 = 4 + 2x

• x = 5/3

• x = 3

• x = 1

• x = 2
