How to solve equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago

1) Open up any parentheses if there are any
2) Combine like terms (moving the variable to one side and other numbers to the other)
3) solve using pemdas/bedmas and any additional steps you need to isolate the variable
4) if x turns out negative, invert the sign

Example:
2x+5=3(x+1)
Open up the parentheses by multiplying it by 3
2x+5=3x+3
Combine like terms
2x-3x=3-5
-x=-2
x=2

I hope this helps!

All about simulitious equations​
Korolek [52]

Answer:

On occasions you will come across two or more unknown quantities, and two or more equations

relating them. These are called simultaneous equations and when asked to solve them you

must find values of the unknowns which satisfy all the given equations at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The solution of a pair of simultaneous equations

The solution of the pair of simultaneous equations

3x + 2y = 36, and 5x + 4y = 64

is x = 8 and y = 6. This is easily verified by substituting these values into the left-hand sides

to obtain the values on the right. So x = 8, y = 6 satisfy the simultaneous equations.

2. Solving a pair of simultaneous equations

There are many ways of solving simultaneous equations. Perhaps the simplest way is elimination. This is a process which involves removing or eliminating one of the unknowns to leave a

single equation which involves the other unknown. The method is best illustrated by example.

Example

Solve the simultaneous equations 3x + 2y = 36 (1)

5x + 4y = 64 (2) .

Solution

Notice that if we multiply both sides of the first equation by 2 we obtain an equivalent equation

6x + 4y = 72 (3)

Now, if equation (2) is subtracted from equation (3) the terms involving y will be eliminated:

6x + 4y = 72 − (3)

5x + 4y = 64 (2)

x + 0y = 8
