Using Additive Inverses to Solve Equations

This video tutorial teaches how to solve equations in one variable using additive inverses. It begins with an introduction to the concept of additive inverses and the additive property of equality. The tutorial then demonstrates solving equations by isolating the variable using additive inverses, providing practical examples and methods to verify solutions. The lesson emphasizes understanding the equivalence of values when the same operation is applied to both sides of an equation.
