a short note on 'linear equation on one variable' |
An equation of one variable and of first order (i.e., its highest power is one) is called a Linear equation in one variable. Such an equation has only one solution. A solution is also called the 'root' of the given equation. An equation of one variable and of first order (i.e., its highest power is one) is called a Linear equation. Such an equation has only one solution. A solution is also called the 'root' of the given equation. eg:- 4x - 1 = 11 4x = 11 + 1 4x =12 x = 12 / 4 =3 |
