Example Question #151 : Equations
Solve for a in the following equation:
To solve for a, we want a to stand alone. So, in the equation
we will need to move the 6. To move it, we need to cancel it. Right now, 6 is being added to a. To cancel it, we need to subtract 6.
If we subtract 6 from the left side of the equal sign, we need to subtract 6 from the right side of the equal sign. So, we get
Example Question #152 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation
Solve for g in the following equation:
To solve for g, we want g to stand alone. So, in the equation
we need to move the 6. To move it, we need to cancel it. Right now, 6 is being subtracted from g. To cancel it out, we need to add 6.
If we add 6 to the left side of the equal sign, we need to add 6 to the right side of the equal sign. So, we get
Example Question #151 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation
Solve for x in the following equation:
To solve for x, we want x to stand alone. So, in the equation
we want to move the 1. To move it, we need to cancel it. Right now, 1 is being added to x. To cancel it, we need to subtract 1.
If we subtract 1 from the left side of the equation, we need to subtract 1 from the right side of the equation. So, we get
Example Question #152 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation
Solve for j in the following equation:
To solve for j, we want j to stand alone. So, in the problem
we want to move the 7. To move it, we need to cancel it. Right now, j is being subtracted by 7. So, to cancel it, we will need to add 7.
If we add 7 on the left side of the equal sign, we need to add 7 on the right side of the equal sign. So, we get
Example Question #151 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation
Solve for x in the following equation:
To solve for x, we want x to stand alone. So, we will solve by doing the following:
