One Step Equations

What is a one-step equation?

• A one-step equation is an algebraic equation that can be solved in one step by performing a single operation, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.

• A one-step equation requires multiple operations to solve.

• A one-step equation is a type of equation that has no solution.

• A one-step equation is an equation that can only be solved using graphing.

Solve for x: x + 5 = 12

• x = 5

• x = 6

• x = 7

• x = 8

Solve for x: 5x = 25

• x = 3

• x = 4

• x = 5

• x = 6

What does it mean to 'solve for a variable'?

• To find the value of that variable that makes the equation true.

• To eliminate the variable from the equation entirely.

• To guess the value of the variable and check if it works.

• To rewrite the equation in a different form without solving for the variable.

Solve for y: y - 3 = 4

• y = 5

• y = 6

• y = 7

• y = 8

What is the relationship between addition and subtraction in one-step equations?

• Addition and subtraction are the same operation.

• Addition and subtraction are inverse operations; solving an equation often involves using one to undo the other.

• Addition is used to solve equations, while subtraction is not relevant.

• Subtraction is always performed before addition in equations.

What is the solution to the equation 10 - y = 3?

• y = 5

• y = 6

• y = 7

• y = 8

If a number is multiplied by 4 and equals 32, what is the number?

• 4

• 6

• 8

• 10

What is the first step to solve the equation 2x = 10?

• Add 10 to both sides of the equation.

• Multiply both sides by 2.

• Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x.

• Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

Solve for x: 3x = 15

• x = 3

• x = 4

• x = 5

• x = 6
