Answer:

  • 3x + 1 = 10
  • 12 -x = 3x
  • 5(x -1) = 10

Explanation:

A "two step" equation is one that requires two steps to solve. The solution process generally involves adding something and multiplying by something, usually the inverse of the coefficient of the variable. The order of the steps may be reversed in some cases (such as the last one shown above).

So, to make up an equation, we can pick a multiplier and an added constant and choose any remaining term to make the solution be what we want.
