Review Solving Equations With One Step

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

Looking at the equation x + 5 = 3x -1 tells me that I can perform which step first...

• Subtract 5 from both sides of the equals sign

• Add x to both sides of the equals sign

• Add 3x to both sides of the equals sign

• Subtract 1 from both sides of the equals sign

Solve the equation.

3x - 2 = x + 10
