Solving One-Step Equations

The video tutorial explains how to solve one-step equations by isolating the variable using inverse operations. It provides a step-by-step guide and examples for solving equations involving subtraction, division, and multiplication. The goal is to isolate the variable on one side of the equation by performing the opposite operation on both sides. The tutorial concludes with a recap of the steps to ensure successful problem-solving.

What is the first step in solving a one-step equation?

• Subtract a number from both sides

• Add a number to both sides

• Draw a line through the equal sign

• Multiply both sides by the same number

What does the term 'inverse operation' mean?

• The same operation

• The opposite operation

• An unrelated operation

• A complex operation
