What is
linear equation?
• A linear equation in one
x may always be rewritten
• If a ≠ 0, there is a unique solution
• If a = 0, then either the equation does
not have any solution, if b ≠ 0 (it
is or every number is a
solution, if b is also zero.
A is
an equation which can be written
in the form:
2x + 3 = 11
2(x  1) = 8
2x + 3y =
11
Two variables
can be rewritten 2x + (2) = 8.
x is squared.
(x  1)2
= 8

Variable in the
denominator
1. Simplify both sides of
the equation.
2. Use the addition and subtraction properties
to get all variable terms on the left-hand side
& all constant terms on the right-hand side.
3. Simplify both sides of the equation.
4. Divide both sides of the equation by the
coefficient of the variable.
Solve x + 1 = 3(x  5).
x + 1 = 3(x  5)
x + 1 = 3x  15
x = 3x  16
2x = 16
The solution is 8.
Check the solution:
TRUE
(8) + 1 = 3((8)  5)  9 =
3(3)
Suppose a water district wants
to know how much snow melt
runoff it can expect this year. The
melt comes from a big valley, and
every year the district measures the
snowpack and the water supply. It
gets 60 acre-feet from every 6
inches of snow pack.
This year surveyors measure 6
feet and 4 inches of snow. The
district put that in the linear
expression (60 acre-feet/6 inches) * 76
inches. Water officials can expect 760
acre-feet of snowmelt from the water.
Its springtime and Puneet
wants to fill his swimming
pool. He doesn't want to
stand there all day, but he
doesn't want to waste water
over the edge of the pool,
either. He sees that it takes
25 minutes to raise the pool
level by 4 inches.
He needs to fill the pool to a
depth of 4 feet; he has 44 more
inches to go. He figures out his
linear equation: 44 inches *
(25 minutes/4 inches) is 275
minutes, so he knows he has
four hours and 35 minutes
more to wait.
Harshit has noticed that in
it's springtime. The grass
has been growing. It grew
2 inches in two weeks. He
doesn't like the grass to be
taller than 2 1/2 inches, but
he doesn't like to cut it
shorter than 1 3/4 inches.
How often does he need
to cut the lawn? He just
puts that calculation in
his linear expression,
where (14 days/2 inches) *
3/4 inch tells him he needs
to cut his lawn every 5 1/4
days. He just ignores the
1/4 and figures he'll cut
the lawn every five days.
It's not hard to see other
similar situations. If you
want to buy beer for the
big party and you've got
60 Rupees in your pocket,
a linear equation tells you
how much you can afford.
Whether you need to bring in
enough wood for the fire to burn
overnight, calculate your,
paycheck, figure out how much
paint you need to redo the
upstairs bedrooms or buy enough
gas to make it to and from your
Aunt Sylvia's, linear equations
provide the answers. Linear
systems are, literally,
everywhere
