Addition and Subtraction Techniques

Solving an equation means finding all values of the variable that make the equation true.
To solve an equation, isolate the variable on one side of the equation and with a coefficient of 1.
You can do this by using the addition and subtraction properties of equality: If you add or subtract the same quantity to both sides of an equation, the resulting equation has the same solutions as the original equation.
