1) GOAL:Get the variable on one side of the equation.

2) You always perform the same operation toboth sides of an equation.

3) To undo an operation you perform its opposite operation to both sides of the equation.


The inverse of add is SUBTRACT

The inverse of subtract is ADD

The inverse of multiply isThe inverse of divide is
