How to Solve Linear Equations in One Variable - Finding the Solution of an Equation

The first example demonstrates solving 4x + 9 = -11. The video explains transposing the constant term (9) to the other side, changing its sign, then simplifying and dividing to find 'x'. A method for checking the solution is also presented.

The second example involves an equation with variables and constants on both sides: 5x - 9 = -3x + 19. The instructor shows how to group like terms by transposing them, simplifying, and then dividing to find the value of 'x' as 7/2.

The video introduces the topic of solving linear equations in one variable, highlighting the use of properties of equality and the transposition method. The main goal is to isolate the variable 'x'.

The third example, x + 2(x + 4) = 44, requires first eliminating the grouping symbol by distributing the 2. Then, like terms are combined, and the equation is solved using the transposition and division methods to find x = 12. A quick check is performed.
