Answer:
Although this isn't a question i tried to explain...
Step-by-step explanation:
An equation is just a problem with an = sign .
to solve this you must:
1) get the variable by itself
2) solve for the variable
EXAMPLE:
3x – 2 = 16
1) add 2 to both sides get 3x by its self on one side (-2 and 2 cross each other out.)
3x = 18
2) divide 3 into 18
18 ÷ 3 = 6
x = 6
