Understanding and Solving One-Variable Equations 6th Grade Math Worksheets

Definition:

In algebra, an equation can be defined as a mathematical sentence composed of an equal symbol between two algebraic expressions that have the same value.

Summary:

Equation vs Expression

Equation	Expression
It is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign. Equation represents balance.	It may be a number, a variable, or a combination of numbers and variables and operation symbols.
With equal sign	Without equal sign
3x = 2x + x	3x, 2x, x

One-variable equation is a mathematical statement that is consist of a variable and whose left-hand side is exactly the same as what’s on the right-hand side. 

Examples of One-Variable Equation	Non-examples of One-Variable Equations
2x = 4 -m = 2	2x – 3r11c – 5

PROPERTIES OF EQUALITY – If a, b, and c are real numbers, then…

Reflexive Property	Symmetric Property	Transitive Property
a = a	If a = b , then b=a	If a = b and b = c, then a = c
Distributive Property	Addition Property of Equality (APE)	Multiplication Property of Equality (MPE)
a(b+c) = ab + ac	If a = b, then a + c = b + c	If a = b, then a x c = b x c
