    This document discusses important formulas and methods for solving linear equations in one variable. It defines a linear equation as an equality involving variables of the form ax + b = 0, where a and b are real numbers and a is not equal to 0. It explains that the left side of the equality is the left hand side (LHS) and the right side is the right hand side (RHS). Linear equations in one variable have exactly one solution. The document outlines various methods for solving linear equations, including transposing numbers to isolate variables, combining like terms, and using the least common multiple to remove fractions.

    Chapter 2 - Linear Equations in One Variable

    i
    Algebraic Equation

    rth
    An algebraic equation is an equality involving variables. It says that the value of the expression
    on one side of the equality sign is equal to the value of the expression on the other side.

    What is Linear equation in one Variable


    We will restrict the above equation with two conditions

    or
    ya
    An equation of the form ax + b = 0, where a and b are real numbers, such that a is
    not equal to zero, is called a linear equation in one variables

    Important points to Note

    S.no Points
    id
    1 These all equation contains the equality (=) sign.

    2 The expression on the left of the equality sign is the Left Hand Side (LHS). The
    expression on the right of the equality sign is the Right Hand Side (RHS)

    3 In an equation the values of the expressions on the LHS and RHS are equal. This
    eV

    happens to be true only for certain values of the variable. These values are the
    solutions of the equation

    4 We assume that the two sides of the equation are balanced. We perform the same
    mathematical operations on both sides of the equation, so that the balance is not
    disturbed. We get the solution after generally performing few steps

    5 A linear equation in one variable has only one solution

    How to solve Linear equation in one variable

    S.no Type of method Working of method

    1 Solving Equations which have


    Linear Expressions on one Side
    1) Transpose (changing the side of the number) the

    i
    and Numbers on the other Side
    Numbers to the side where all number are present. We

    rth
    know the sign of the number changes when we transpose
    it to other side

    2) Now you will have an equation have variable on one


    side and number on other side. Add/subtract on both the
    side to get single term

    3) Now divide or multiply on both the side to get the value


    ya of the variable

    2 Solving Equations having the 1) Here we Transpose (changing the side of the number)
    Variable on both Sides both the variable and Numbers to the side so that one side
    contains only the number and other side contains only the
    variable. We know the sign of the number changes when
    we transpose it to other side. Same is the case with
    Variable

    2) Now you will have an equation have variable on one


    id
    side and number on other side. Add/subtract on both the
    side to get single term

    3) Now divide or multiply on both the side to get the value


    of the variable
    eV

    3 Solving Complex Equations 1) Take the LCM of the denominator of both the LHS and
    (having number in denominator) RHS
    having the Variable on both
    Sides 2) Multiple the LCM on both the sides, this will reduce the
    number without denominator and we can solve using the
    method described above

    i
    rth
    4 Equations Reducible to the Here the equation is of the form
    Linear Form
     
    
     

    We can cross multiply the numerator and denominator to


    reduce it to linear for

    ya (x+a)d=c(x+b) Now it can be solved by above method
