Solve One Step Equations Subtraction

g - 15 = 30

• g = 35

• g = 45

• g = 15

• g = 12

Solve the equation:
-5x = 25

• x = 20

• x = -20

• x = -5

• x = 5

x - 8 = -5 

• 13

• -13

• 3

• -3

x - 62 = 123
How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation?

• Add 62 to each side. 

• Subtract 62 from each side.

• Multiply each side by 62.

• Add 123 to each side.

Solve the equation:
x - 4 = -3

• x = -7

• x = 1

• x = 12

• x = -12

Solve for x.

x - 8 = -5

• x = 13

• x = -13

• x = 3

• x = -3

When you solve one-step equations, you can do anything you want to one side of the equal sign, as long as...

• it is mathematical

• you do the SAME thing to the other side

• solving equations is impossible

What is the correct step to solve for the variable?
15 = m - 5

• add 5 to both sides

• add 15 to both sides

• subtract 15 from both sides

• subtract 5 from both sides

Evaluate (Solve):

f-22=36

• f = 62

• f = 14

• f = 58

• f = 12

Evaluate (solve).

y - 4.6 = 12

• y = 16.6

• y = 5.8

• y = 7.4
