2-step equations2-step equations
In chapter 2 we learned how to solve In chapter 2 we learned how to solve simple equations.simple equations.
For example to solve 5 + n = -8 we For example to solve 5 + n = -8 we learned to subtract 5 from both sides of learned to subtract 5 from both sides of the equation like this:the equation like this:
5 + n = -85 + n = -8 -5 -5-5 -5 subtract 5subtract 5 n = -13n = -13 solutionsolution

We also solved equations like this:We also solved equations like this:
-4n = 12-4n = 12
-4n-4n = = 1212 divide both sides by -4divide both sides by -4 -4-4 -4 -4 n = -3n = -3 solutionsolution

Now we are going to combine 2 operations in Now we are going to combine 2 operations in one equation.one equation.
For example, let’s try 3n – 6 = 15For example, let’s try 3n – 6 = 15
3n – 6 = 153n – 6 = 15 +6 +6+6 +6 first add 6 to both sidesfirst add 6 to both sides 3n3n = = 2121 then divide by 3then divide by 3 3 33 3
n = 7n = 7 solutionsolution

It is a good practice to check our answer.It is a good practice to check our answer. Our original equation was 3n – 6 = 15Our original equation was 3n – 6 = 15
Our solution was n = 7Our solution was n = 7 If we substitute 7 for the n we getIf we substitute 7 for the n we get 3(7) – 6 = 153(7) – 6 = 15 21 - 6 = 1521 - 6 = 15 15 = 1515 = 15
Another exampleAnother example
TT - 10 = -6 - 10 = -6 44
TT - 10 = -6 - 10 = -6 4 4 +10 +10+10 +10 add 10 to both sidesadd 10 to both sides
(4)(4)TT = 4 (4) = 4 (4) multiply both sides by 4multiply both sides by 4 44
T = 16T = 16 solutionsolution

In a problem like 5 – x = 17, remember In a problem like 5 – x = 17, remember that the coefficient of x is -1.that the coefficient of x is -1.
To solve first subtract 5 like this:To solve first subtract 5 like this: 5 – x = 175 – x = 17 -5 -5-5 -5 (-1)(-1) -x = 12 -x = 12 (-1)(-1) Then multiply both Then multiply both
sidessides by -1 by -1 x = -12x = -12
