Worded Problems
-> Write what x represents -> Write Equation -> Solve Equation -> Write answer in sentence
Collect like terms and solve EQUATION e.g. 2x+3x+4=8
Collect like terms and solve WORKING 2x+3x+4=8 5x+4=8 5x=8-4 (-4) 5x=4 x=4 — (divided by 5) 5 x=0.8
Equations with Brackets EQUATION e.g. 3(x+1)=12
Equations with Brackets WORKING 3(x+1)=12 3x + 3=12 3x=12-3 (-3) 3x= 9 x= 9 — (divided by 3) 3 x=3
One-Step Equations EQUATION e.g. x+3=5
One-Step Equations WORKING x+3=5 x=5-3 (-3) x=2
Two-Step Equations EQUATION e.g. 2x-4=10
Two-Step Equations WORKING 2x-4=10 2x=10+4 (+4) 2x=14 x=14 — (divided by 2) 2 x=7
