Solving an equation is likened to unwrapping a present because in both cases, you aim to uncover what's within by dealing with the outer layers systematically. Through an inverse process, you isolate the equation's variable and solve for it, just as the step-by-step unwrapping of layers reveals the gift within the package.
Unwrapping a present is a great way to understand the process of solving an equation. If you consider the equation itself as being 'wrapped' in different operations such as multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction, you can begin to 'unwrap' it by systematically dealing with these operations in reverse from the order of operations. This would be like when you unpack the present by undoing the tape, then the paper, then the box, or whatever other layers might be present.
To use a direct example, let's consider the equation 3x + 7 = 22. You start unwrapping by isolating for the term with the variable. This means you handle the operation that does not involve the variable first. So, subtract 7 from both sides of the equation to get 3x = 15. Next, you handle the multiplication operation by dividing both sides by 3 and solving for x, which would be 5 in this case. Just like unwrapping a present, we aim to get to the 'inside' or the root of the equation.
