-19 = -8 (-4+a) - (2a+1)

• -1

• 14

• -5

• 5

Solve

-124 = 4 (1+ 8k)

• -11

• 10

• -4

• -2

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.

What is the first step in solving a multi-step equation?

• Distribution (If necessary)

• Combine Like Terms

• Move the variable

• Move the constant

-8(-8x - 6) = -6x - 22

• 2/5

• -1

• 8/7 

• 2

22 + 2a = 37 + 6 + a

• 21

• -21

• 5

• 6

Solve the equation:
3x - x + 2 = 4(2x - 1)

• x = 7

• x = 1

• x = -1

• x = -3

In order to solve an equation, we must get variables on one side of an equation, and constants on the opposite side.

• False

• True
