Solving One Step Equations with Integers

The video tutorial covers solving one-step equations with integers. It begins with a review of integer operations, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, using a number line and rules for signs. The main focus is on solving one-step equations by isolating the variable through inverse operations. Several examples are provided to demonstrate solving equations involving subtraction, addition, multiplication, and division. The tutorial concludes with advice for students to seek help during office hours if needed.
