Example Question #41 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra
Solve the following equation for :
To solve this one-step algebraic equation, we use opposite operations. The variable in this equation is being added to the number 5. The opposite operation to addition is subtraction; therefore, we subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.
Example Question #332 : High School Math
.
Solve for .

on the left side of the equation.
Divide both sides by .
Example Question #42 : How To Solve One Step Equations With Integers In Pre Algebra
Solve for when
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 .
