All of these only require a single operation before you get x alone. for example:
x - 2 = 6 compared with 2x = 6
for the first one, you add two and get x = 8. for the second one, you divide by 2 and get x = 3. they're both a single step, as the name "one-step" equations tells you, and you only have to divide, multiply, add, or subtract one value.
