Solving Two-Step Equations Practice

The goal of solving two-step equations is to:

• francine

• Find the coefficient 

• Find the value of the variable

• Because the teacher told me to

Using the "opposite operation" to "undo" and isolate the variable when solving an equation is more commonly called...

• Inverse operations

• math

• variable

• PEMDAS

What is the first step in solving this equation:
5x + 7 = 12

• Divide by 5

• Subtract 5

• Multiply by 7

• Subtract 7

What was done to solve the equation?

• add 8 to both sides, then divide both sides by 5

• add 8 to both sides, then divide both sides by 40

• subtract 8 from both sides, then divide both sides by 5

• subtract 8 from both sides, then multiply both sides by 5

The steps in solving 5b - 6 = 24 are: 

• Add 6 to both sides and divide both sides by 5

• Add 6 to both sides and multiply both sides by 5

• Subtract 6 from both sides then multiply both sides by 5

• Subtract 6 from both sides then divide both sides by 5

• 2

• 6

• 8

• 10

The goal of solving two-step equations is to:

• francine

• Find the coefficient

• Find the value of the variable

-5 - 6a = -59

• a= 11

• a= -6

• a= 9

• a= 2

26 = 5a + 1

• a= 5 ⁴∕₅

• a= no solution

• a= 0

• a= 5

33 = 4a - 7

• a=-10

• a=10

• a=4.5
