Steps to solving One Step Algebra Equations:
1: Isolate the variable (variable- a letter representing an unknown/unlike number)
2: Cancel using the opposite; if there's a constant use zero pair
(constant- the integer in an algebraic expression or equation)
3: Balance, do the same on the other side of the equal sign
4: Verify to check- solve to equality
Here are some examples:
A number and 2 is 5. (n + 2 = 5)
The difference of a number and 10 is -21. (n - 10 = -21)
Five times a number is 20. (5 x k = 20/ 5k = 20)
Alge-Tile Example:
A number is divided by 8 is -4. (x ÷ 8 = -4)
Two-Step Algebra Equation
Steps to solving Two Step Algebra Equations:
1: Isolate the variable
2: Cancel the constant
3: Balance
4: Simplify the variable
5: Balance again
6: Verify to check
2: Cancel the constant
3: Balance
4: Simplify the variable
5: Balance again
6: Verify to check
