I'll give hints. For the first one, a one-step equation is literally... a one-step equation. Which of the two equations can be solved in one step?

For the second one, I believe you can derive your own answer from solving each equation. Note the similarities and differences between the two.

Do these two and... Wala! You have your answer.
