The video tutorial explains how to solve a one-step equation using inverse operations. It begins by introducing the concept of one-step equations and the importance of isolating the variable. The instructor demonstrates how to rewrite the equation using the commutative property of addition to make it easier to understand. The solution involves using subtraction to isolate the variable, and the process is verified by substituting the solution back into the original equation. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the operations and verifying the solution to ensure accuracy.

What is the main goal when solving a one-step equation like 6 + n = 2?

• To change the operation from addition to multiplication

• To find the value of n that makes the equation true

• To rewrite the equation in a different form

• To add more numbers to both sides

How does the commutative property of addition help in solving the equation 6 + n = 2?

• It enables us to divide both sides by 6

• It lets us multiply both sides by the same number

• It helps us rewrite the equation as n + 6 = 2

• It allows us to change the numbers in the equation
