Answer 2

Question:

• Solve for x : 2x - 6 = 8

⇒ x = $\frac{14}{2}$

⇒ x = 7

Extra Information:

• Variable is a quantity that can take any value, its value is not fixed.
• Expressions are formed by performing operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division on the variables.

Eg: 6x - 3

• Equation is a condition on a variable such that two expressions in the variable should have equal value.

Eg: 3x - 7 = 14

• The value of the variable in an equation for which the equation is true is called the solution of the equation.

Eg: Solution for — 3x - 7 = 14 is x = 7.

• Methods to slove an equation are:

1. Trial and Error Method
2. Systematic Method
3. Transposition $\:\:\:\longrightarrow\:\:\:$ This is used here.

• Transposition: A process in which a term is moved from one side to the other with no change in its sign is called transposition.
