Solving an equation with variable on the same side

The video tutorial explains how to solve multi-step equations by isolating variables. It begins with an introduction to multi-step equations, emphasizing the goal of isolating the variable. The tutorial then demonstrates combining like terms to simplify the equation, followed by solving the equation using the addition property of equality and division. Finally, it verifies the solution by substituting the value back into the original equation to ensure correctness.
