Hi Monica. I assumed you mean when to do each in order? Think of an equation solving as “undoing” the equation. We start with subtraction/addition if there is +\- signs. Remember you are doing the opposite of the signs on the equation. So to solve if + then you subtract and vice versus. Then you proceed to multiplication or division (again the opposite of what is already happening. 3x means 3 • x so dividing makes sense. X/5 means x divided by 5, so multiplication makes sense. This is how you solve a 2 step equation where you have a variable with a number in front and then another number added or subtracted, such as 3x - 6 = 12. If there is anything else going on, you have to deal with thus first. The goal is to simplify until you have a 2 step equation. This might be distributive property such as 3(2x - 5) = 33. The parenthesis and number outside is the clue to do the extra simplifying. It could also be a need to combine like interns before solving such as 2x + 5 + 6x = 13. Notice we have an extra x compared to the desired 2 step equation. The plus signs in between mean adding first is the trick. It could also be a combination of these. Do the parenthesis first and then combine. You also will sometimes see the variable on both sides of the =, which again doesn’t fit that 2 step equation such as 2x - 7 = 5x + 5. Notice there is an x in both sides. You would need to eliminate one of them to get to the place to solve. This is shown in another video. So basically you have to learn to read the situation. Look for anything you can do starting with distributive property and then combining and if done correctly you should be ready for a simple 2 step equation.

@mathlearningmadeeasy

+Levin Tiwnsen We would start with the distributive property on the left side.... 2(n - 3) = 2(n) - 2(3) = 2n - 6 then replace on the equation. 2n - 6 = 4n + 1 From here we need all the n's on one side and all the numbers on the other side. Couple ways to do this but I find most people like to avoid multiplying and dividing by a negative. So the trick is always start by eliminating the lower variable. 2n and 4n so this means subtract 2n from both sides. 2n - 6 = 4n + 1 -2n -2n -6 = 2n + 1 Now we need to get the n by itself. First we subtract 1 - 1 - 1 -7 = 2n and then we divide by 2 ÷2 ÷2 -7/2 = n Just so you know, I have videos for solving with variables on both sides and also ones for the distributive property. Check them out! Good luck!

How would u solve a question like this n - 10 = -25
@mathlearningmadeeasy
3 жыл бұрын
Hey Cristian! So when you add the 10 to both side I imagine that the problem you have is with what to do with this -25 + 10 That sounds about right? When adding and subtracting negative and positive numbers remember that a pair of one negative and one positive makes 0 together. So that is - + makes zero. So a problem like -9 + 5 can be represented by - - - - - - - - - +++++ If you pair up one negative and one positive repeatedly you will see that you get five 0s from pairs and what is left is four minus signs. This is then -4 and that is your answer! For this problem, you would get 25 - and 10 +. So you end up with 15 leftover negative signs and the answer is -15. Hope this helps! Not the easiest to type these answers but I did my best! :)

Hi! Hard to know exactly what you did wrong, but I am assuming you ended up with one of these two in one of your steps. -2x = 14 or 2x = -14 In either case, notice that you have -12x and 10x so the larger is the negative and must have -2x be left. Also notice that you have -25 on the right side so when you add the left side which is smaller it must also stay negative, -14. So combining both facts you have -2x = -14 which gives the answer 7. I guess I can’t be certain I am right so feel free to add more detail, but my guess is that will find your error.

Hey Cristian! So when you add the 10 to both side I imagine that the problem you have is with what to do with this -25 + 10 That sounds about right? When adding and subtracting negative and positive numbers remember that a pair of one negative and one positive makes 0 together. So that is - + makes zero. So a problem like -9 + 5 can be represented by - - - - - - - - - +++++ If you pair up one negative and one positive repeatedly you will see that you get five 0s from pairs and what is left is four minus signs. This is then -4 and that is your answer! For this problem, you would get 25 - and 10 +. So you end up with 15 leftover negative signs and the answer is -15. Hope this helps! Not the easiest to type these answers but I did my best! :)

Hi! Hard to know exactly what you did wrong, but I am assuming you ended up with one of these two in one of your steps. -2x = 14 or 2x = -14 In either case, notice that you have -12x and 10x so the larger is the negative and must have -2x be left. Also notice that you have -25 on the right side so when you add the left side which is smaller it must also stay negative, -14. So combining both facts you have -2x = -14 which gives the answer 7. I guess I can’t be certain I am right so feel free to add more detail, but my guess is that will find your error.

At some point you said "combine my x's" which is a bit inappropriate if you think about it.
