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 to solve the equation 4x + 7 = 23?

Back

Subtract 7 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 4x + 7 = 23 after isolating the variable term?

Back

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for x.

Front

Solve for x: 4x + 7 = 23

Back

x = 4

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 7k - 14 = 42?

Back

Add 14 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 7k - 14 = 42 after isolating the variable term?

Back

Divide both sides by 7 to solve for k.

Front

Solve for k: 7k - 14 = 42

Back

k = 8

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 2t - 7 = 3?

Back

Add 7 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

Front

What is the second step to solve the equation 2t - 7 = 3 after isolating the variable term?

Back

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for t.

Front

Solve for t: 2t - 7 = 3

Back

t = 5
