This document outlines the four steps to solve multi-step equations: 1) Group like terms, 2) Isolate the variable, 3) Simplify, 4) Solve for the variable. It also provides examples of multi-step equations and prompts for reflection on what was learned in the unit, including vocabulary, hardest and easiest parts.
