Intro to Algebra
2-Step Equation with Multiplication and Addition (3x - 10 = 20)
Video ID: cmdn007

The goal, as always, is to isolate or "solve for" the variable. You should first undo any addition or subtraction using inverse operations. Then you can undo any multiplication or division to complete the problem.

1. Undo the -10: Add 10 to both sides.

2. Undo the 3x: Divide both sides by 3.

Solved: x = 10
