Linear Equations in One Variable Part 1IPOD VIDEO: In this unit we give examples of simple linear equations and show you how these can be solved. In any equation there is an unknown quantity, x say, that we are trying to find. In a linear equation this unknown quantity will appear only as a multiple of x, and not as a function of x such as x squared, x cubed, sin x and so on. Linear equations occur so frequently in the solution of other problems that a thorough understanding of them is essential.

Quick Reference (4)
Linear relationshipsIn many business applications, two quantities are related linearly. This means a graph of their relationship forms a straight line. This leaflet discusses one form of the mathematical equation which describes linear relationships.
Simple linear equationsThis leaflet shows how simple linear equations can be solved by
performing the same operations on both sides of the equation.
Solving linear equationsEquations always involve one or more unknown quantities which we try to find when we solve the equation. The simplest equations to deal with are linear equations. On this leaflet we describe how these are solved.

Simple Linear EquationsIn this unit we give examples of simple linear equations and show you how these can be solved. In any equation there is an unknown quantity, x say, that we are trying to find. In a linear equation this unknown quantity will appear only as a multiple of x, and not as a function of x such as x2, x3, sin x and so on. Linear equations occur so frequently in the solution of other problems that a thorough understanding of them is essential.
