Example Question #65 :Single Variable Algebra

If, then

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

为了解决这个你必须找到的价值.

The first equation states that. This is a mult-step equation. The first step is to remove the constant, 6, from the equation; this is done by using the inverse operation, which means you would subtract the 6 from both sides of the equation.

Then divide both sides by the 7 in order to isolate the variable.

Then plug the 3 into the second equation for the value of x.

Example Question #66 :Single Variable Algebra

If, what is the value of?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The first step in the process of solving forin this problem is to use the distributive property to distribute theto what is inside the parentheses.

The next step is to isolate the variable by using inverse operations. In this example, in order to get rid of the, you would addto both sides of the equation.

The next step is to divide both sides by the coefficient, (the number next to the variable), which in this case is.

Example Question #62 :Single Variable Algebra

If, then what is the value of?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

In order to solve for the value ofyou must isolate the variable. This is done by subtracting the constant in this equation, which is 12, from both sides of the equation.
