Example Question #31 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve for .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for , we first need to isolate it. That means we want ONLY  on the left side of the equation.

Divide both sides by .

Example Question #32 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for  we must get all of the numbers on the other side of the equation as .

To do this in a problem where  is being multiplied by a number, we must divide both sides of the equation by the number.

In this case the number is  so we divide each side of the equation by  to make it look like this 

The s cancel to leave  by itself

 

Then we perform the necessary division to get the answer of  .

Example Question #33 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve for  if, 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for  we must get all of the numbers on the other side of the equation as .

To do this in a problem where  is being subtracted by a number, we must add the number to both sides of the equation.

In this case the number is  so we add  to each side of the equation to make it look like this 

The  cancel on the left side and leave  by itself 

Then we perform the necessary addition to get the answer of .

Example Question #31 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve for  if

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for  we must get all of the numbers on the other side of the equation as .

To do this in a problem where a number is being added to , we must subtract the number from both sides of the equation.

In this case the number is  so we subtract  from each side of the equation to make it look like this 

The  on the left side cancel to get 

Then we perform the necessary subtraction to get the answer of  .

 

Example Question #35 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve for .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve , we need to isolate . That means we want only on the left side.

Divide both sides by .

Example Question #36 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve for if .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for , we must move all of the constants to the opposite side of the equation as .

To do this in a problem where  is being subtracted by a number, we must add the number to both sides of the equation.

In this case the number is , so we add  to each side of the equation to make it look like this:

The s cancel on the left side and leave  by itself.

Then we perform the necessary addition to get the answer of .
