x + 7 = 15
x = 8
x^2 = 16
x = +4, -4
4x +12 = -2x + 132
x = 20
What is the *first step* in solving x/3 = 15?
Multiply both sides by 3
-5x + 10 = x + 52
x = -7
What is the *first step* in solving 4x = 16?
Divide both sides by 4
5(3x+2) - 5x = 120
x = 11
What is the *first step* in solving 4 - x = 3?
A) Subtract 4 from both sides, or B) Add x to both sides
7x - 4x + 3 = - 15
x = -6
-3x +20 = -6x +5
x = -5
12x + 8x -50 = 150
x = 10
