What is a First-Degree Equation?
A first-degree equation is a mathematical equality where the highest exponent of the variable (usually represented by the letter X) is equal to 1. It is used to find an unknown value from known values, drawing a straight line on mathematical graphs.
How to isolate X?
The base form we use in our calculator isax + b = c. The goal to solve this equation is to \"isolate X\" on one side of the equality.
- If we have the equation:2x + 4 = 10
- First, we move the +4 to the other side by changing the sign:2x = 10 - 4(becoming 2x = 6)
- Then, we pass the 2, which is multiplying x, by dividing:x = 6 / 2
- The final result is:x = 3
