solving linear equations

In this blog we are going to learn about solving linear equations

What is equation?

Equation is a statement where the two quantities in the both side are equal.

Equation we can find in Algebra.

There are several types of Equations in Algebra like

Linear equation, Equations containing radicals, Quadratic equations, Equations involving Fractions, Exponential equations, Logarithmic equations etc…

Here is some examples on linear equations solver:

Example 1:

Solve for x

X+ 2 = -3

solution:

1. Subtract 1 from both sides:

x + 2 - 1 = -3 - 2

2. Simplify :

x = -5

Example 2

Solve for x

2 x + 2 = -18

solution:

1. Subtract 1 from both sides:

2x + 2 -2 = -18 - 2

2. Simplify :

2x = -20

3. Divide 2:

2x/2=-20/2

4. Simplify both sides:

x = -10
