Answer:
Here is how you do it step by step.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify each side, if needed.
Step 2: Use Add./Sub. Properties to move the variable term to one side and all other terms to the other side.
Step 3: Use Mult./Divide
Step 4: Check your answer.
I find this is the quickest and easiest way to approach linear equations.
Example 6: Solve for the variable.

Answer: About (-2.414, 0) and (0.414, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us graph the equation given and see what the x-intercepts are. These are points where the line intercepts the x-axis. <em>See attached</em>.
This means our x-intercepts are at about (-2.414, 0) and (0.414, 0).
These are also equal to
and 
-4/3 -5/1= 120 so if you add them they equal 120 which is -120
3 dozen = 36
1/3 ÷ x = 5 ÷ 36
1/3 × 36 = x × 5
12 = 5x
12/5 = x
