SOLVING EQUATIONSOne step, more steps and those with more than one

variable!!

Solve for a variable.

Solve for x = Solve for x =

2x + 5 = 10 Given problem

2x = 5 Subtraction Prop

X = 5/2 Division Prop

Ax + z = P Given problem

Ax = P – z Subtraction pr

X = (P – z) /A Division Prop

Solve for y = mx + b

This procedure will be very important in the upcoming modules!

Given: 2x + 3y = 12 Solve for y =3y = -2x +12Y = -2x/3 + 4 Given: 3x – 2y = -10 Solve for y =-2y = -10 -3xY = 5 + 3x/2
