Solving Two-Step Equations (SOL 7.14)


Example 1 Solve 3x + 1 = 7 CHECK

3x + 1 = 7 Locate the variable term. 3x + 1 = 7


3x + 1 = 7 Use INVERSE OPERATIONS 3(__) + 1 ≟ 7
-1 -1 to isolate the x term.
In Reverse PEMDAS order

3x = ____ Simplify. ____+ 1 ≟ 7


3x 6 ____ = 7
= To eliminate the coefficient
divide each side by ___.

Simplify.
x = ___

Solve the two-step equation. Check your solution.
