• check the solution.

• guess and check.

• combine like terms.

What is the correct step to solve for the variable ?

• subtract 7 from both sides.

• add 7 to both sides.

• multiply both sides by 7

• divide both sides by 7

Solve for x:

2 ( x + 5 ) - 7 = 3 ( x - 2 )

• x = 6

• x = -14

• x = 9

• x = 28

Solve for x:

4(1-x) + 3x = -2x - 2

• x= -6

• x= 3

• x= 6

• x= -3

Solve for x:

12k + 15 = 35 +2k

• k = 2

• k = 4

• k = -2

• k = -4

Solve for x:

3 ( x + 1 ) - 5 = 5x -2

• x = -1

• x = 0

• x = -2

• x = 1
