Solving Two-Step Equations: Step 1

The first step involves adding or subtracting a number to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term.

Solving Two-Step Equations: Example

Subtracting 7 from both sides isolates the term with the variable (3x).

Solving Multi-Step Equations: Step 1

To solve for x, first isolate the x term by performing the opposite operation on both sides of the equation.

Solving Absolute Value Inequalities: Step 1

The first step is to set the expression inside the absolute value bars greater than or equal to zero and solve for x.

Solving Absolute Value Inequalities: Greater Than

When the absolute value of an expression is greater than or equal to a number, we have two possible solutions: one where the expression is greater than or equal to the number and another where it is less than or equal to the negative of the number.

Study Notes

Solving Equations and Inequalities

Two-Step Equations

  • To solve a two-step equation, it's necessary to isolate the variable, which involves adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing both sides of the equation by the same value.

Equation 3x + 7 = 16

  • The first step to solve this equation is to subtract 7 from both sides, resulting in 3x = 9.

Equation 5(x-2) = 25

  • The solution to this equation is x = 7.

Absolute Value Inequalities

  • To solve an absolute value inequality, it's essential to isolate the absolute value expression, then split the inequality into two separate inequalities and solve for x.

Inequality |2x - 3| < 5

  • A possible solution to this inequality is x < 4 or x > -2.

Inequality |x + 2| > 3

  • The solution to this inequality is x < -5 or x > 1.

First Step in Solving Absolute Value Inequalities

  • The first step to solve an absolute value inequality is to isolate the absolute value expression by moving all terms to one side of the inequality.

Inequality |x - 3| ≥ 7

  • The solution to this inequality is x ≤ -4 or x ≥ 10.

Inequality |2x + 1| < 5

  • The solution to this inequality is -3 < 2x < 9, or -1.5 < x < 4.5.
