What is the first step in solving an equation with a variable?
The first step in solving an equation with a variable is doing the inverse operation. For example:4x + 8=32The first step would be to subtract 8 from 32. Since the operation is addition you would do the inverse which is subtraction. Then you would go on to divide 24 by 4Because 32-8= 24 Then you would get an answer of x=6 This answer is correct because 6 multiplied by 4 is 24
