Example Question #1 : Solving Linear Equations In Word Problems
Write as an equation:
Twice the sum of a number and ten is equal to the difference of the number and one half.
Let represent the unknown number.
"The sum of a number and ten" is the expression . "Twice" this sum is two times this expression, or
.
"The difference of the number and one half" is a subtraction of the two, or
Set these equal, and the desired equation is
Example Question #4 : How To Solve Two Step Equations
In the above diagram, which of the four points is the -intercept of the line of the equation
?
The -coordinate of the
-intercept of the line of an equation can be found by setting
and solving for
:
The -intercept is the point
, which is three units down from the origin. This is the point marked
in the diagram.
