3x+8-x = 5x-4

• yes

• maybe

• no

solve for a:

22+a = 37+6

• a= 21

• a= -5

• a=5

• a= -16

Solve for f:

f-4 = 6f+26

• f= -5

• f= 5

• f= 6

• f= -6

The goal of solving a one, two, or multi-step equations is to:

• Find the value of the variable

• Find the constant

• Be confused

• Find the coefficient

Which statement best describes the first step to the equation? -11-3x=44-2x

• Add 3 to both sides

• Add 11 to both sides

• Get the variables on one side

• Add 2 to both sides

Solve for x: 5(2x-1)=-5+10x

• x=5

• No solution

• x=0

• All real numbers

Solve for x:

-18-6x=6(1+3x)

• x=1

• x= -1

• No solution

• Infinite solutions

Solve for w:

10w-6w=23+5

• w= 18/16

• w= 6

• w= 1

• w= 7
