Translating Sentences into Two-Step Equations
Evaluating Algebraic Expressions
Translate the sentence into an equation.
Twice a number m increased by –4 is 0.
Twice a number m increased by –4 is 0.
2 ● m + (–4) = 0
2m + (–4) = 0

7 more than the product of 3 and a number t is 16.
3 ● t + 7 = 16

Solving Two-Step
Equations Using Division
Evaluating Algebraic Expressions
Solve 3x + 4 = –11.
Step 1:
3x + 4 = –11
–4 –4
3x
= –15
Step 2:
3x = –15
3
3
x = –5
Note that x is multiplied by
3. Then 4 is added. Work
backward: Since 4 is added
to 3x, subtract 4 from both
sides.
Since x is multiplied by 3,
divide both sides by 3 to
undo the multiplication.

Solve 8 = –5y – 2.
8 = –5y – 2
+2
+2
Since 2 is subtracted from
–5y, add 2 to both sides to
undo the subtraction.
10 = –5y
10 = –5y
–5
–5
–2 = y or
y = –2
Since y is multiplied by –5,
divide both sides by –5 to
undo the multiplication.

Solve 4 + m = 9.
7
Note that m is divided by 7.
Step 1:
4+ m = 9
7
Then 4 is added. Work
–4

backward: Since 4 is added
m = 5
to m , subtract 4 from both

sides.
Step 2:
(7) m = 5(7) Since m is divided by 7,

multiply both sides by 7 to
undo the division.
m = 35

undo the subtraction.
17 = z

34 = z
z is divided by 2, multiply
both sides by 2 to undo
the division.
