2. The Four Steps to Solve Multi-
Step Equations
1.Distribute
2. Combining Like Terms
3. Get The Variable On One Side
4. Isolate

3. Step 1:
4(x+5)+2=30x-4
26 26x
1 x
=
=
22=26x-4
4x+22=30x-4
-4x -4x
4x+20+2=30x-4
/26
+4+4
/26

4. • I learned the following vocabulary words
this unit: Distribute, Combining Like
Terms, Isolate
• There wasn’t really a hardest part in this
unit.
• The easiest part was distributing the
numbers and variables in the
parentheses.
