Notes on Linear Equations

Linear Equations Class 8 Notes- Chapter 15- The solution to this linear equation can be any rational number. This equation may consist expressions which are linear on both sides of the equal to sign. Just like numbers, we can also transpose the variables from one side of the equation to the other side.

Equation:

An equation is a statement of equality which contains one or more unknown quantity/ quantities (or variable/variables) is called an equation.

Solving an Equation:

Solving an equation means determining its root i.e., determining (finding) the value of the variable which satisfies it.

Stepwise procedure to solve a word problem.

• Read the given word problem carefully and identify what is given and what is required.
• Use letters x, y, z, etc. to represent the unknown quantity.
• Transform the statements of the problem into mathematical statements.
• Form the linear equation according to the given condition (s) of the problem.
• Solve the equation by the usual method.
• Check the solution for its validity.
• Reject if the solution is invalid

Solving Equations having the Variable on Both Sides

We transpose the terms in such a manner that the terms containing the variables are on the LHS and constant numbers on RHS.
Then, simplifying both sides and dividing by a suitable number (if required), we can solve the equation.
Finally, check the validity of the solution obtained. Reject if the solution is invalid

Reducing Equations to Simpler Form

We multiply both sides of the equation by the LCM of the denominators of the terms in the expressions occurring in the given equation.

We transpose properly so that all the variable terms come on LHS and constant terms on RHS.
Then, combining like terms on both sides of the equation and dividing both sides by a suitable number (if required), we can find out the required solution.
Finally, we check this solution for its validity. Reject if the solution is invalid

Equations Reducible to Linear Form

Sometimes the given equation is not linear in form. By cross-multiplication and further simplification, it can be transformed into a linear equation in one variable. Then, it can be solved by the usual method.
