Solving Two Step Equations

Front

What is a two-step equation?

Back

A two-step equation is an algebraic equation that requires two operations to solve for the variable.

Front

What is the first step in solving the equation -6x + 1 = -11?

Back

Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step in solving the equation -6x + 1 = -11 after isolating the variable term?

Back

Divide both sides by -6 to solve for x.

Front

Solve for x: -6x + 1 = -11

Back

x = 2

Front

What does the term 'coefficient' refer to in an equation?

Back

A coefficient is a numerical factor that multiplies a variable.

Front

What is the goal of solving two-step equations?

Back

The goal is to find the value of the variable.

Front

Solve for c: 3c + 5 = 23

Back

c = 6

Front

What is the first step in solving the equation -54 = -4n + 2?

Back

Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

Solve for n: -54 = -4n + 2

Back

n = 14

Front

Back

Multiply both sides by 10 to eliminate the fraction.
