The first step in solving an algebraic equation is this, or something I want to do with the variable.
What is isolate the variable or get it by itself?
100
This is the first step I take when I want to graph a function rule such as y = x + 2.
What is make an input-output table?

This is the third and final step in the process of graphing a function line such as y = 2x + 1
What is plotting the points on the graph?
200
When y + 4 = 11, this is the value of y.
What is 7?

The difference between equations and expressions is the word "is", which is another way to say this.
What is = or equals?
200
This is the solution to the equation b - 17 = 15
What is 32?
300
In order to get the variable by itself, I perform this to both sides of the equation, also known as the inverse.
What is the opposite operation?
300
When graphing a function such as y = 4x, this is the second step I use and the one that comes after making my input-output table?
What is writing the ordered pairs?
300
This is the value of p when p - 10 = 7
What is p = 17?

This is would be how you write the function rule for the following input-output table: Input Output 2 6 4 12 6 18 8 24 10 30
What is y = 3x
400
This is the value of x when 4x = 48.
What is 12?

When graphing a line using ordered pairs to plot points, I move to the right across this axis first and then up across this axis
What is x-axis and y-axis?
400
***Daily Double*** When solving the equation 5x = 35, you would do this to both sides of the equation.
What is divide by 5?
400
This is how you would write the equation "the difference of 14 and a number is 5"
What is 14 - p = 5?
500
This is another way to write the equation y/5 = 9.
What is y over 5 = 9.
500
This is what an input-output table would look like for the equation y = 4x when x = 4, 6, 8, 10.
What is 4(4)= 16 4(6)= 24 4(8)= 32 4(10)= 40
500
