Solving 2-Step Equations

Solving 2 Step Equations

Step 1: Split Equation into Left/Right Sides
Step 2: Move all variables (x's) LEFT
Step 3: Move all numbers (#'s) RIGHT
Step 4: Divide by the number in front of x

Solving 2 Step Equations

Subtract 2x from both sides
Add 11 to both sides
Divide both sides by 3
x=9

Solving 2 Step Equations

Subtract 3x from both sides
Subtract 14 from both sides
Divide both sides by 5
Remember a negative divided by a positive is a negative
x=-5

Multiple Choice
