Solving a two step equation

The video tutorial explains how to solve two-step equations by using reverse order of operations. It emphasizes the importance of inverse operations, starting with addition and subtraction, followed by multiplication and division. The tutorial provides a step-by-step approach to solving equations, ensuring that operations are applied equally on both sides of the equation. Key reminders include always undoing addition and subtraction first, then handling multiplication and division.

What is the first step in solving a two-step equation according to the reverse order of operations?

• Undo addition or subtraction

• Solve for the variable directly

• Undo division

• Undo multiplication

When undoing addition in a two-step equation, what operation should be used?

• Division

• Multiplication

• Subtraction

• Addition

Why is it important to perform the same operation on both sides of an equation?

• To make the equation more complex

• To simplify the equation

• To eliminate the variable

• To keep the equation balanced

What is the inverse operation of multiplication when solving for a variable?

• Exponentiation

• Division

• Subtraction

• Addition

What should you do if the result of a division in a two-step equation is an improper fraction?

• Convert it to a decimal

• Ignore it

• Leave it as an improper fraction

• Round it to the nearest whole number
