8.2 2 step equations Objective: students will use what they learned with one step equations and be able to solve a two step equation.
Information To Solve 2-step equation. Ex: 2x + 5 = 6 Isolate variable (addition/subtract) Solve for variable (multiply/divide) Ex: 2x + 5 = 6 Note: can’t have negative variable. Ex: -x = 3; need to multiply by -1 x = -3
Examples 4x + 1 = 5 2r - 9 = 1 3n + 8 = 2 12k - 17 = 31
Examples 12 – 4s = -12 -2m + 6 = 8 -2q – 63 = 47 18 – r = 42
Examples b/4 – 8 = 1 d/5 - 1 = 2 c/6 – 2 = 6 h/9 + 19 = -10
Examples x/3 + 2 = -1 h/4 + 7 = 23 y/-2 + 8 = 21 j/2 + 52 = -40
