STEPS ON HOW TO DO ALGEBRA

In these steps I will be explaining how to do algebra. Algebra is two or more variables. Here are steps on how to solve one.

STEP 1: you write the problems out. x-5=9

STEP 2: then ask yourself what is being done to x-5=9
my variables and do the opposite of it.

STEP 3: so we do the opposite of subtraction witch 5+5=0
is addishtion. but both sides have to be egual 9+5=14
so it just adds up to 0 so X is left. do it to the
other side too.

STEP 5: so then x equals 14. x=14

TO CHECK YOUR ANSWER

STEP 1: you rewite your problem. x-5=9

STEP 2: you write the answer that you got up at the top 14-5=9
and then you do what the problems tells you to do. 9=9

STEP 3: if the answer equals the answer on the problem you x=14
got it right.

Great job! Your explanation is very good. Algebra simply involves unknowns/variables. There don't have to be 2 variables. Perhaps you meant that an equation has 2 balanced sides separated by an equal sign?
