You will solve one-step equations using algebra. Essential Question: How do you solve one- step equations using subtraction, addition, division, and multiplication? Use inverse operations and properties of equality to produce equivalent equations and isolate variables. Use reciprocals to isolate a variable with a fractional coefficient. Solve one-step equations by using inverse operations to isolate the variable, for example, use addition to undo subtraction. If a coefficient is a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal to produce a coefficient of 1. Always perform the same operation on each side of the equation.
