Solving 2-Step Equations Challenge

The video tutorial teaches seventh graders how to solve two-step equations by using inverse operations and working backwards through the order of operations. It provides step-by-step examples, emphasizes the importance of verifying solutions, and encourages practice. The tutorial also includes a metaphor of a house and yard to help students visualize the process of isolating variables.

What is the next step after mastering one-step equations?

• Learning three-step equations

• Skipping to algebraic expressions
