Calculate the linear equation:

Example:

Solve the equation 4x + 3 = 19 by transposing.

Solution:

Step 1. Transpose the 3 from the left-hand to the right-hand side of the equation by changing its sign.

4x        = 19 - 3

4x        = 16

Step 2. Using Axiom 4, divide by 4 both sides of the equation.

4x/4 = 16/4

X= 4

Step 3. Check the root.

4(4) + 3 = 16 + 3 = 19

The root checks.
