Pre Algebra One-step equations

What would be the best first step to solving the equation?
-3=x+5

• add 3 to both sides
• subtract 5 from both sides
• add 5 to both sides
• subtract -5 from both sides

What would be the best first step to solving the equation?
f+6=-6

• multiply both sides by 6
• divide both sides by 6
• add 6 to both sides
• subtract 6  from both sides

In the equation
x + 7 = 12
7 is being added to the variable, x. How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation? 

• Subtract 7 from both sides. The solution is x = 5.
• Add 7 to both sides.
  The solution is x = 19.
• Multiply both sides by 7 The solution is x = 84.
