One and Two Step Equations

  m - (-3) = 11

• -13
• 14
• 8
• -8

2x + 16 = 130

• x=114
• x=57
• x=-114
• x=-57

In the equation
4p = 20
 the variable, p, is being multiplied by 4. How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation?

• Multiply both sides by 4.
  The solution is x = 80.
• Subtract 4 from both sides. 
  The solution is p = 16.
• Add 4 to both sides. The solution is p = 24.
• Divide both sides by 4. The solution is p = 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

What operation would you use to get "x" by itself?
2x = 10

• addition
• subtraction
• multiplication
• division

Solve for w:
-6w + 1 = -11

• 2
• 1.2
• 12
• -2

Solve  x/2 + 4 = -2

• -3
• -12
• 12
• 4

x - 62 = 123
How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation?

• Add 62 to each side. 
• Subtract 62 from each side.
• Multiply each side by 62.
• Add 123 to each side.

Solve the equation:
x - 5.5 = 10.5

• x = 16
• x = -15
• x = 5
• x = -5
