Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Absolute Value - Solving Linear Equations METHOD #1 – Inspection Some equations are easy to solve. Ones that have one operation involved and you can “talk” or reason you way thru the answer. An equation is solved ONLY when the unknown has a coefficient of one.

Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Absolute Value - Solving Linear Equations METHOD #1 – Inspection Some equations are easy to solve. Ones that have one operation involved and you can “talk” or reason you way thru the answer. EXAMPLE # 1 : Solve for “a” : An equation is solved ONLY when the unknown has a coefficient of one.

Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Absolute Value - Solving Linear Equations METHOD #1 – Inspection Some equations are easy to solve. Ones that have one operation involved and you can “talk” or reason you way thru the answer. EXAMPLE # 1 : Solve for “a” : Something added to 5 equals 12. You could start testing numbers until you get the answer or just “know” the answer will be seven. An equation is solved ONLY when the unknown has a coefficient of one.

Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Absolute Value - Solving Linear Equations METHOD #1 – Inspection Some equations are easy to solve. Ones that have one operation involved and you can “talk” or reason you way thru the answer. EXAMPLE # 2 : Solve for “a” : Something times ( - 3 ) equals 15. You could start testing numbers until you get the answer or just “know” the answer will be five. An equation is solved ONLY when the unknown has a coefficient of one.

Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Absolute Value - Solving Linear Equations METHOD #2 – Isolation This method uses opposite operations. You will “isolate” the variable by getting it by itself on one side of the equation and the answer on the other side. An equation is solved ONLY when the unknown has a coefficient of one.

Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Absolute Value - Solving Linear Equations METHOD #2 – Isolation This method uses opposite operations. You will “isolate” the variable by getting it by itself on one side of the equation and the answer on the other side. OPPOSITE OPERATIONS :ADD - SUBTRACT MULTIPLY - DIVIDE An equation is solved ONLY when the unknown has a coefficient of one.
