One-step Equations
In order for you to understand the steps, there are a couple of words you need to know.
Variable - the unknown
-use a letter to represent a number
Constant - the integer in an algebraic expression or equation
Rules for Addition/Subtraction :
1.Isolate the variable
2.Cancel using the opposite operation (create a zero pair)
3.Balance on the other side of the equal sign
4.Verify your answer
