One Step Equations worksheets - Free Printable

Let's solve each of these one-step equations. These are simple linear equations where we need to isolate the variable $ x $ by performing one inverse operation (either addition or subtraction).

🔷 General Rule:

- If $ x + a = b $, then $ x = b - a $
- If $ x - a = b $, then $ x = b + a $

We'll apply this rule to each equation.

✔ Solutions:

1) $ x - 4 = 7 $
$ x = 7 + 4 = \boxed{11} $

2) $ x + 4 = 1 $
$ x = 1 - 4 = \boxed{-3} $

3) $ x + 5 = -3 $
$ x = -3 - 5 = \boxed{-8} $

4) $ x - 3 = 5 $
$ x = 5 + 3 = \boxed{8} $

5) $ x - 4 = 0 $
$ x = 0 + 4 = \boxed{4} $

6) $ x + 4 = -5 $
$ x = -5 - 4 = \boxed{-9} $

7) $ x - 4 = 1 $
$ x = 1 + 4 = \boxed{5} $

8) $ x + 2 = 2 $
$ x = 2 - 2 = \boxed{0} $

9) $ x + 4 = -8 $
$ x = -8 - 4 = \boxed{-12} $

10) $ x - 5 = 3 $
$ x = 3 + 5 = \boxed{8} $

11) $ x - 3 = -1 $
$ x = -1 + 3 = \boxed{2} $

12) $ x + 3 = -1 $
$ x = -1 - 3 = \boxed{-4} $

13) $ x - 5 = 8 $
$ x = 8 + 5 = \boxed{13} $

14) $ x + 2 = 7 $
$ x = 7 - 2 = \boxed{5} $

15) $ x - 5 = -4 $
$ x = -4 + 5 = \boxed{1} $

16) $ x + 4 = 0 $
$ x = 0 - 4 = \boxed{-4} $

17) $ x - 3 = -7 $
$ x = -7 + 3 = \boxed{-4} $

18) $ x - 3 = -6 $
$ x = -6 + 3 = \boxed{-3} $

19) $ x - 4 = 6 $
$ x = 6 + 4 = \boxed{10} $

20) $ x + 4 = 9 $
$ x = 9 - 4 = \boxed{5} $

21) $ x - 5 = -5 $
$ x = -5 + 5 = \boxed{0} $

22) $ x - 3 = -8 $
$ x = -8 + 3 = \boxed{-5} $

23) $ x - 2 = 10 $
$ x = 10 + 2 = \boxed{12} $

24) $ x - 2 = -3 $
$ x = -3 + 2 = \boxed{-1} $

25) $ x + 3 = 8 $
$ x = 8 - 3 = \boxed{5} $

26) $ x + 2 = -4 $
$ x = -4 - 2 = \boxed{-6} $

27) $ x - 5 = 2 $
$ x = 2 + 5 = \boxed{7} $

28) $ x - 3 = -2 $
$ x = -2 + 3 = \boxed{1} $

29) $ x + 4 = 6 $
$ x = 6 - 4 = \boxed{2} $

30) $ x + 5 = 11 $
$ x = 11 - 5 = \boxed{6} $
