Solving multi-step problems using linear equations in one variable

Solve the equation for x.
3(2x - 3) = 5(x + 3)

• 24
• 6
• 9
• -6

Solve 4x - 2 = 2x + 16

• 9

• 18

• 2

• -9

Solve the equation: 4(3x + 2) - 2(5x - 1) = 8 - 3(2x + 1)

• -1

• 1

• 2

• -2

The triangle and square have the same perimeter.

What is the value of x?

3x - 7 = -5x + 17

• x = 5
• x = 12
• x = 3
• x = 1.2

Check all steps that you would need to take to solve this equation:

 $8\left(2x-3\right)+2x=4x-4$  

• Use distributive property to get rid of parentheses

• Combine like terms

• Move the variable to one side of the equation

• Use inverse operations to isolate and solve for the variable.

Solve:

1 - 11x = -13x - 17

• x = 9

• x = - 9

• x = 3

• x = -3

on the third step you have to Move _______ to one side and constants to the other side

 $5x-14+2x=7\left(x-2\right)$  

•  $x=0$  

•  $x=2$  

• No solution

• Infinite solutions
