Solving a one step equation by subtracting with a negative

The video tutorial explains how double negatives in mathematics can cancel each other out, similar to double negatives in English. It demonstrates rewriting equations to simplify them and using inverse operations to solve for variables. The tutorial provides a step-by-step approach to solving an equation with double negatives, emphasizing the importance of maintaining balance by performing the same operations on both sides of the equation.

Why is it important to remember that whatever you do on one side of the equation, you must do on the other?
