You would use inverse operations. I had this on my math homework and got it correct
so I know this!

Good for you ! You know what you said, but you don't know what you know.
I'd say that you use the Golden Law: "You must always do exactly the same thing
to both sides of an equation."

To use inverse operations on both sides of an equation until the variable appears by itself on one side?
Isolate the variable
For systems in which there is no linear equation you can isolate and substitute a variable that is what in both equations?
squared
What is the definition of isolate the variable?
In algebra, its to move the pieces of the equation around so that the variable is isolated to only one side of the sign
What must be done get a variable alone on one side of an equation or inequality in order to solve the equation or inequality the answeranswer has eighteen letters with s being the second?
isolate the variable
Which is the best way to solve the equation?
That depends on the equation. In general, you'll try to isolate the variable, by using operations (on both sides of the equation) that get rid of anything other than the variable, on the side the variable is on.
