This video tutorial by Mr. J covers solving multistep equations involving the distributive property, combining like terms, and handling variables on both sides. The process includes using the distributive property to eliminate parentheses, combining like terms, isolating the variable, and solving the equation through inverse operations. The solution is verified by substituting the value back into the original equation.

What is the first step in solving a multi-step equation involving the distributive property?
