Infinite Algebra 2
Solving Multi-Step Equations
Looking for an explanation on how to solve these two problems and what the correct answers are. How do I solve these ?
The first problem, all you need to do is combine like terms then isolate the n: 4n-2n=4 ~subtract 2n from 4n (2n) 2n=4 ~then divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate the n n=4
The second problem follows the same steps of combining like terms and isolating the variable. Here, you'll have to combine 2 like terms: -12=2+5v+2v ~first combine the variables which is just 5v+2v which is 7v -12=2+7v ~then subtract 2 from both sides to isolate the 7v -14=7v ~then divide both sides by 7 to isolate the v and get your answer -2=v
