Gold Path lesson

Two-step equations

Question 1 of 3

Outcome: Solve and explain equations that require two inverse operations.

Problem

3x + 5 = 20

About 10 minutes
What to do: Solve the problem using the recommended workspace or another tool. Save any work you want attached to this question, then submit your answer when you are ready.
1
Write the operation you apply to both sides.
2
Write the resulting equation and continue solving.
3
Enter your value for x.

Tap or click the coordinate plane to plot points. Use Undo to remove the last point.

Ready to record your explanation

Record an explanation if speaking helps you show your reasoning.

Upload notebook or paper notes
