Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear equation is of the form ax+b and the highest degree of x is 1. You can see that from the power of x which is 1.
The power of x is zero from the equating. It is not reflecting because anything raise to power if zero gives 1
To get the solution of the equation ax+b = 0
We will make x the subject of the formula
ax = -b
Divide both side's by a
ax/a = -b/a
x = -b/a
If 2x-3 = 0
2x = 0+3
2x = 3
2x/2 = 3/2
x = 3/2
Given -8 = 2x+4
2x = -8-4
2x = -12
x = -12/2
x = -6
A linear equation in one variable is known to have ONE solution. This is as demonstrated in the equation above, we cans see that the only solution is -6(just one solution)
Convert the statement "adding 15 to 4 times x is 39" into an equation 1
The product of 4 and x is 4x
Adding 15 to 4x will give
15+4x
If the resulting expression is equal to 39, the final equation will be;
15+4x = 39
10) given 1/3+S = 2/5, we are to find S
S = 2/5-1/3
S = 6-5/15
S = 1/15
Hence the value of S is 1/15
