Forming One Step Equations WORKSHEET
Solve linear equations in one variable. a. Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by successively transforming the given equation into simpler forms, until an equivalent equation of the form x = a, a = a, or a = b results (where a and b are different numbers). b. Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms.
Forming One Step Equations WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet is the first in our series that uses varied representations to aid your students' understanding of expressing missing number problems algebraically.
Throughout the worksheet learners will match models (bar models, part whole models and algebra tiles) to one step equations, form equations from models, draw models to represent equations and represent written scenarios such as “I think of a number, multiply it by 5 and it is now equal to 20” as a model and in the form of an equation across 4 sections.
To begin with, students will only focus on three operations: addition, subtraction and multiplication. See our worksheet “Forming One Step Equations Involving Division” to solely focus on representing division.
