SOLVING TWO-STEP

EQUATIONS
LEARNING OBJECTIVE •Find the
value of
the
variable
by
solving
equation
s
involving
two
steps.
Standard – 7.EE.3
Ican use
expressions and
equations to solve
multi-step, real-life
problems using
positive and
STARTER!!!!
VIDEO
WHAT IS A TWO-STEP
EQUATION?

An equation written in the form

Ax + B = C
WHAT IS A TWO-STEP EQUATION?

Put in your own words


Two-Step Equation:

An equation that can be


solved using two
operations.
EXAMPLES OF TWO-STEP EQUATIONS
a) 3x – 5 = 16

b) y/4 + 3 = 12

c) 5n + 4 = 6

d) n/2 – 6 = 4
STEPS FOR SOLVING
TWO-STEP EQUATIONS
1. Solve for any Addition or Subtraction on
the variable side of equation by “undoing”
the operation from both sides of the
equation.
2. Solve any Multiplication or Division from
variable side of equation by “undoing” the
operation from both sides of the equation.
3. REMEMBER USE “PEMDAS” IN
REVERSE!!!

Youcan “WAC” these
equation! YAY!
Don’t Forget…
LET’S START!!!!!

3x + 4 = 16
Hard way Easy way
3x + 4 = 3x + 4 =
16 16
- Undo Multiplication - Undo Addition or
or Division first Subtraction first
Hard way - Undo Mult./ Easy way - Undo Add./
3x + 4 = Div. first 3x + 4 = Subt. first
16 3 3 16 -4 -4
3x + 4 = 16 3x = 12
3 3 3 3 3
x + 4 = 16 x=4

EX. 1: SOLVE 4X – 5 = 11

4x – 5 = 15
+5 +5 (Add 5 to both sides)
4x = 20 (Simplify)
4 4 (Divide both sides by
4)
x=5 (Simplify)
TRY THESE EXAMPLES

1. 2x – 5 = 17

2. 3y + 7 = 25

3. 5n – 2 = 38

4. 12b + 4 = 28
CHECK YOUR ANSWERS!!!

Translate the sentence below and solve.
5) Eight more than 3 times a number y is th
same as 29.

3y  8  29
8  8
3y  21
3 3
y 7
Check:
3(7) + 8 = 29
HELPFUL HINTS?
 Identify what operations are on the variable
side. (Add, Sub, Mult, Div)
 “Undo” the operation by using opposite
operations.
 Whatever you do to one side, you must do to
the other side to keep equation balanced.
EX. 2: SOLVE X/3 + 4 = 9

x/3 + 4 = 9
-4 -4 (Subt. 4 from both sides)
x/3 = 5 (Simplify)

(x/3)  3 = 5  3 (Mult. by 3 on both sides)

x = 15 (Simplify)
TRY THESE EXAMPLES!
1. x/5 – 3 = 8

2. c/7 + 4 = 9

3. r/3 – 6 = 2

4. d/9 + 4 = 5
CHECK YOUR ANSWERS!!!
1. x = 55

2. c = 35

3. r = 24

4. d=9
PLENARY
TIME TO REVIEW!

 Make sure your equation is in the form Ax + B =


C
 Keep the equation balanced.
 Use opposite operations to “undo”

 Follow the rules:


1. Undo Addition or Subtaction

2. Undo Multiplication or Division
