Algebra Tiles Made Easy! | Solve One - Step Equations (Addition & Subtraction) | 7.EE.B.4

In this video, Missus C introduces algebra tiles as a visual tool to solve algebraic equations. She demonstrates solving equations like X + 1 = 3, P - 5 = -2, and y + 4 = -7 using algebra tiles. The video explains how to isolate variables by adding or subtracting tiles to maintain balance in equations. Missus C also shows traditional methods for solving these equations and emphasizes the importance of checking solutions by substituting the variable with its value. The video provides a clear understanding of using algebra tiles to visualize and solve equations.
