Solving equations using additionWhen solving equations using addition, they will have the this form:
x − b = c
Recall that ax + b = c is a linear equation. Thus, the equation x − b = c is a linear equation with a = 1 and a negative sign in front of b. To see this, notice that 1.x = x and − = + - Thus, we can rewrite x − b = c as 1.x + -b = c You can solve x − b = c in one step. When solving one step equation of the form x − b = c, rewrite x − b = c as x + -b = c and add b to both sides of the equation. We will illustrate with two examples: Example #1: Solve x − 2 = 8 ![]() Example #2: Solve x − 4 = -6 ![]() Linear equations calculator Easily solve equations of the form x − b = c with the click of a button! |
