Solving Two Step Equations Challenge

The video tutorial reviews solving for x, starting with one-step equations and progressing to two-step equations. The teacher explains the steps involved in isolating the variable and provides examples to illustrate the process. Students are encouraged to practice solving equations using the outlined steps, emphasizing the importance of writing down the process rather than solving in their heads.

What is a one-step equation?

• An equation that requires two operations to solve.

• An equation that requires three operations to solve.

• An equation that requires only one operation to solve.
