3.1 Solutions of Linear Equations in One Unknown
Solve linear equations = Finding the value of the unknown which satisfies the
equation.
The solution of the equation is also known as the root of the equation.
A linear equation in one unknown has only one root.
To determine whether a given value is a solution of an equation, substitute the value
into the equation. If the sum of the left hand side (LHS) = sum of right hand side
(RHS), then the given value is a solution.
3.2 Solving Linear Equations in One Unknown through the operations +, , and
There are 4 different forms of linear equation as follows :
Type Equation Operation Solution
I x + a = b x = b a
II x a = b + x = b + a
III ax = b x =
a
b
IV0, = ab
a
x x = a b
Examples :
3.3 Solving Linear Equations in One Unknown involving combined operations of +, , and
Linear equations in the form of ax + b = c
Steps :
1. Work on the bracket first, if there is any.
2. Group the terms with the unknown on the left hand side of the equation while the
numbers on the equation using combined operations.3. Solve the equation using combined operations.
4. Check your solution by substituting the value into the original equation.

WRONG RIGHTa.
2 - (w + 5) = 4
2 - w + 5 = 4
2 + 5 - 4 = w
3 = w
a.
2 (w + 5) = 4
