Two Step Equations w/ some distribute

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 to solve the equation 2x + 10 = 16?

Back

Subtract 10 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

After isolating the term with the variable in 2x + 10 = 16, what is the next step?

Back

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x.

Front

What does the distributive property state?

Back

The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Front

How do you apply the distributive property to -3(4x - 2)?

Back

Multiply -3 by both 4x and -2 to get -12x + 6.

Front

What is the solution to the equation -3(4x - 2) = -54?

Back

x = 5.

Front

What is the simplified form of 6x + 8 = 14?

Back

6x = 6.

Front

What is the value of x in the equation 6x = 6?

Back

x = 1.

Front

What does it mean to isolate a variable?

Back

To isolate a variable means to get the variable alone on one side of the equation.

Front

What is the solution to the equation 2x + 10 = 16 after solving?

Back

x = 3.
