How to solve a linear equation with two steps

What should you assume about a number if there is no sign in front of it?

• It is imaginary.

• It is negative.

• It is zero.

• It is positive.

What is the first step in solving the equation -3x + 2 = 6?

• Divide both sides by 2.

• Add 3 to both sides.

• Multiply both sides by 3.

• Subtract 2 from both sides.

After subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation -3x + 2 = 6, what is the resulting equation?

• -3x = 4

• -3x = 6

• -3x = 2

• -3x = 8

What operation is used to isolate x in the equation -3x = 6?

• Multiply by 3

• Subtract 3

• Divide by -3

• Add 3

What is the final solution for x in the equation -3x = 6?

• x = -2

• x = 2

• x = 3

• x = -3
