Definition of a Linear Equation :
A linear equation in one variable is an equation that has one unknown.
It can be written in the form,
ax + b = 0
(where a and b are real numbers and a ≠ 0)
To solve linear equations with one unknown, we have to be aware of inverse operations.
Problem 1 :
9c + 1 = 10
Solution :
Given , 9c + 1 = 10
9c + 1 – 1 = 10 - 1
9c = 10 – 1
9c = 9
c = 9/9
c = 1
Problem 2 :
6y – 5 = 7
Solution :
Given , 6y – 5 = 7
6y – 5 + 5 = 7 + 5
6y = 7 + 5
6y = 12
y = 12/6
y = 2
Problem 3 :
8 = 3a – 4
Solution :
Given , 8 = 3a – 4
8 + 4 = 3a – 4 + 4
8 + 4 = 3a
12 = 3a
12/3 = a
4 = a
Problem 4 :
m/5 + 9 = 11
Solution :
Given , m/5 + 9 = 11
m/5 + 9 – 9 = 11 - 9
m/5 = 2
m = 2 × 5
m = 10
Problem 5 :
13 + 7x = 27
Solution :
Given , 13 + 7x = 27
13 + 7x – 13 = 27 – 13
7x = 27 – 13
7x = 14
x = 14/7
x = 2
Problem 6 :
17 – q = 6
Solution :
Given , 17 – q = 6
17 – q – 17 = 6 - 17
-q = -11
q = 11
Problem 7:
(n – 31)/4 = 2
Solution :
Given , (n – 31)/4 = 2
n – 31 = 8
n = 8 + 31
n = 39
Problem 8:
1 + 2r = 35
Solution :
Given , 1 + 2r = 35
1 + 2r – 1 = 35 - 1
2r = 35 – 1
2r = 34
r = 34 /2
r = 17
Problem 9:
42 + 5t = 8t
Solution :
Given , 42 + 5t = 8t
42 + 5t – 42 = 8t - 42
5t = 8t – 42
5t – 8t = -42
-3t = - 42
t = 42/3
t = 14
Problem 10:
4p – 3 = 17
Solution :
Given ,4p – 3 = 17
4p – 3 + 3 = 17 + 3
4p = 17 + 3
4p = 20
P = 20/4
P = 5
