Question

Show me and example of a multi step equation and solve.

Answer 1

problemSolve 6x + 5 = 10 + 5x. Check your solution. This equation has x terms on both the left and the right. To solve an equation like this, you must first get the variables on the same side of the equal sign. You can subtract 5x on each side of the equal sign, which gives a new equation: x + 5 = 10. This is now a one-step equation!  Subtract 5 from both sides.Check Check your solution by substituting 5 for x in the original equation. This is a true statement, so the solution is correct.Answerx = 5
