The video tutorial explains how to solve one-step equations by isolating the variable using inverse operations. It covers two examples: x + 17 = -32 and x - 24 = -59. For each equation, the tutorial demonstrates the steps to isolate the variable, solve the equation, and verify the solution by substitution. The process involves performing the opposite operation on both sides of the equation to maintain equality and checking the solution to ensure it satisfies the original equation.

What is the first step in solving the equation x + 17 = -32?

• Divide both sides by 17

• Multiply both sides by 17

• Subtract 17 from both sides

• Add 17 to both sides
