Algebra for Praxis II ParaPro Test Prep Study Guide The practice
quiz for this study guide can be found at: There will likely not
be too many questions about algebra on the ParaPro Assessment,
but you will be expected to solve linear equations and identify
how numbers make up a pattern. A linear equation contains an
unknown value, called a variable. The equals sign separates an
equation into two sides. You will be asked to find the value of
the variable using information in the equation. The first step
is to get all of the variable terms on one side and all of the
numbers on the other side. This is accomplished by undoing the
operations that are attaching numbers to the variable, thereby
isolating the variable. The operations are always done in
reverse PEMDAS order: start by adding/subtracting, then
multiply/divide. It is very important to remember that whenever
an operation is performed on one side, the same operation must
be performed on the other side. - Solve for k in the equation 3k
= 33. - To get k by i
