About this worksheet

A mixed sheet asks students to decide the plan before solving: simplify first, then collect x-terms, then undo operations. That decision is what a unit test checks.

Teaching tip

Before solving, have students label each problem "two-step", "multi-step" or "both sides". Labeling is half the work.
