Description

This example presents a one-variable equation that may involve variables on both sides. The solving process requires moving all terms involving the variable to one side and constants to the other. This often involves using the distributive property and combining like terms. The goal is to isolate the variable and solve for its value. This type of problem helps students develop their algebraic manipulation skills and understand the importance of maintaining balance in an equation. Checking the solution by substituting it back into the original equation is crucial to ensure accuracy.
