'I think of a number, add four, and the answer is seven.' Written algebraically, this statement is \(x + 4 = 7\), where \(x\) represents the number you thought of. \(x + 4 = 7\) is an example of an ...

In this video I will work through 22 different examples of solving two-step equations using a worksheet I created for my students. I will use the properties of equality, inverse operations, and ...

Equations that have more than one unknown can have an infinite number of solutions. For example, \(2x + y = 10\) could be solved by: \(x = 1\) and \(y = 8\) \(x = 2\) and \(y = 6\) \(x = 3\) and \(y = ...
