Homework Solutions

A quick reminder to keep the learning and knowledge sharing flowing!

Please remember to exercise effort and provide your approach and thinking before posting questions. Solutions should ideally be crafted with explanations and context, not just answers alone -- that helps us help you best, and aligns with the spirit of learning.

Feel free to elaborate on your thought process, too, or any specific challenges encountered along the way -- often, articulating our understanding is a valuable step in clarifying it for ourselves!

Let's get started! Post away!

I'll try to remember that. It's reasonable to expect an explanation alongside the answer so that we can all learn together. I'm sure you understand that as a homeschool teacher, my main goal is for students to be able to learn how to solve problems instead of just knowing the answers.

So, here's one for you.

My daughter has been trying to balance this equation:

2x + 5 = 13

She's supposed to show her work and I'd like to see how she would approach this.
