Solving One-Step Equations: Addition and Subtraction

The video tutorial explains how to solve an equation by identifying the operation on the variable term, applying the inverse operation to both sides, and checking the solution by substitution. The process involves recognizing that adding three to the variable term requires subtracting three from both sides to isolate the variable. Finally, the solution is verified by substituting the value back into the equation.
