INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION
Imagine that you are taking a taxi while on vacation. You know that the taxi service charges 90 to pick your family up from your hotel and another 15 per km for the trip. After the completion of your trip the taxi driver gave you a bill of 1440. If we take x" to represent the distance in km travelled, the linear equation would be: 15x + 90 = 1440
A statement which states that two algebraic expressions are equal is called an equation. Some more examples: Some more examples: 3X2 + 5 = X 5 3x 2y = 8 6 x = x+9
The equation involving only one variable in first order is called a linear equation in one variable. 3x 5 =0 8 y =2 7 +a =15 3a
A LINER EQUATION IS ALSO CALLED A FIRST DEGREE EQUATION AS THE HIGHEST POWER OF VARIABLE IS 1. EXAMPLE OF LINER EQUATIONS : x + 4 = - 2 2x + 5 = 10 5 3x = 8
Formation of Equation From Statement A number increased by 8 is equal to 15 .Find the number. Solution: let be a number x Given ,the number increased by 8 equal 15. =>x+8 = 15 =>x= 15 -8 => x=7
Formation of statement from equation Formation of statement from equation 2x+5 = 10 Two times a number increased by 5 is equals to 10 x-5 = 12 Five subtracted from a number is equals to 12

PROPERTIES OF AN EQUATION If same quantity is added to both sides of the equation, the sums are equal. Thus: x=7 => x+a=7+a If same quantity is subtracted from both sides of an equation, the differences are equal Thus: x=7 => x-a=7-a If both the sides of an equation are multiplied by the same quantity, the products are equal. Thus: x=7 => ax=7a If both the sides of an equation are divided by the same quantity, the quotients are equal. Thus: x=7 => x a=7 a
3.To solve an equation of the form ax=b Q. Solve 3x=9 Solution: 3x=9 => 3x/3= 9/3 => x = 3 4. To solve an equation of the form x/a=b Q. Solve x/2 = 6 Solution: x/2 = 6 => x = 6x2 => x = 12
SHORT- CUT METHOD (SOLVING AN EQUATION BY TRANSPOSING TERMS) 1.In an equation, an added term is transposed (taken) from one side to the other, it is subtracted. i.e., x+4=10 => x=10-4=6 (4 is transposed) 2. In an equation, a subtracted term is transposed to the other side, it is added. i.e., y-6=5 =>y=5+6=11 3. In an equation, a term in multiplication is transposed to the other side, it is divided. (6 istransposed) 3x=12 =>x=12/3=4 (3 istransposed) 4. In an equation a term in division is taken to the other side it is multiplied. i.e => y=6 4=24 (4 is transposed)
To Solve a Linear Equation by using more than one property Solve: 3x+8=14 Solution: 3x=14-8 (transposing 8) => 3x=6(transposing 3) => x=6/3 =>x=2
(2) 2a-3=5 Solution: 2a-3=5 => 2a=5+3 (transposing 3) => 2a=8 => a= 8/2 (transposing2) => a=4
Solving Equation with variables in both sides Solving Equation with variables in both sides Transpose the terms containing the variable, to one side and the constants to the other side. E.g.: (1) Solve 10y-3=7y+9 Solution: 10y-7y = 9+3 (transposing 7y to the left & 3 to the right) => 3y = 12 => y = 12/3 => y = 4
(2) Solve: 2(x-5) + 3(x-2) = 8+7(x-4) Solution: 2x-10+3x-6 = 8+7x-28(removingthe brackets) => => => => => 5x-16 = 7x-20 5x-7x = -20+16 -2x = -4 x = -4/-2 x = 2
EXAMPLES Q1. Solve x+4=10 (2 Marks) Solution: x+4=10 x+4-4=10-4 (subtracting 4 from both the sides) x=6 [1] [1] Q2. Solve Solution: y-6+6=5+6 (Adding 6 in both sides) => y=11 y-6=5 (2 Marks) y-6=5 [1] [1]
Q3. Solve3(x+5)=18 (4 Marks) Solution: 3(x+5)=18 => 3x+15= 18 (Transposing 15 ) [1] => 3x = 18 -15 [1] => 3x = 3 [1] => x= 3/3 (Transposing 3) [0.5] => x = 1 [0.5]
