Interactive step-by-step solver for understanding and solving simple linear equations.
Learn about solving simple linear equations through these example problems with detailed step-by-step solutions.
Solve the equation: \( x + 5 = 12 \).
\( x + 5 - 5 = 12 - 5 \)
\( x = 7 \)
\( 7 + 5 = 12 \), which is true.
Solve the equation: \( 3x = 18 \).
\( \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{18}{3} \)
\( x = 6 \)
\( 3 \times 6 = 18 \), which is true.
Solve the equation: \( 2x + 4 = 10 \).
\( 2x + 4 - 4 = 10 - 4 \)
\( 2x = 6 \)
\( \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{6}{2} \)
\( x = 3 \)
\( 2 \times 3 + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10 \), which is true.
Enter your own linear equation to solve, and get a step-by-step solution.
Note: This basic solver can currently handle simple linear equations in the form \( x + a = b \), \( ax = b \), or \( ax + b = c \) where \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) are integers or simple decimals, and \( x \) is the variable (e.g., Solve \( x + 5 = 12 \), Solve \( 3x = 18 \), Solve \( 2x + 4 = 10 \)). Enter the equation clearly with \( x \) as the variable.
