Todd Solving One-Step Equations and Inequalities Practice

Front

What is a one-step equation?

Back

A one-step equation is an algebraic equation that can be solved in a single operation, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.

Front

How do you solve the equation 2x = 10?

Back

To solve 2x = 10, divide both sides by 2: x = 10 / 2, so x = 5.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality y + 7 ≥ 12?

Back

To solve y + 7 ≥ 12, subtract 7 from both sides: y ≥ 12 - 7, so y ≥ 5.

Front

What is the inverse operation of addition?

Back

The inverse operation of addition is subtraction.

Front

What is the inverse operation of multiplication?

Back

The inverse operation of multiplication is division.

Front

How do you solve the equation x - 5.5 = 10.32?

Back

To solve x - 5.5 = 10.32, add 5.5 to both sides: x = 10.32 + 5.5, so x = 15.82.

Front

What is the solution to the equation x = 10?

Back

The solution to the equation x = 10 is simply x = 10.

Front

What does it mean to isolate a variable in an equation?

Back

Isolating a variable means rearranging the equation so that the variable is on one side and all other terms are on the other side.

Front

What is a solution set in the context of inequalities?

Back

A solution set is the set of all values that satisfy the inequality.

Front

How do you check if a value is a solution to an equation?

Back

To check if a value is a solution, substitute the value into the equation and see if both sides are equal.
