Example Question #31 : How To Solve One Step Equations

Solve for if .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for  we must move all of the numbers to the other side of the equation as .

To do this in a problem where  is being divided by a constant, we must multiply both sides of the equation by that constant.

In this case the constant is , so we multiply each side of the equation by  to make it look like this:

The s on the left cancel to give us .

Multiply to find .

Example Question #38 : 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 constants 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:

The s on the left side cancel:

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

Example Question #39 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra

Solve the following equation for :

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve this one-step algebraic equation, we use opposite operations. The variable  in this equation is being multiplied by 4. The opposite operation to multiplication is division; therefore, we divide both sides of the equation by 4:
