WEEK 1    
TOPIC: SIMPLE EQUATION
This expression 3 x p= 18 is an algebraic sentence. It means three times an unknown numbers is equal to eighteen.
Translate the following equations into words.
5x + 7 = 37 it means if 7 is added to five times a number, the result is 37
11 = 3x – 1. It means 11 is equal to 3 times a certain number minus one.
TRUE AND FALSE STATEMENT
EXAMPLES: State whether the following is true or false

  1. X + 8 = 15 ( when x is 7)
  2. 3x – 4 = 11 ( when x is 6)

Solution
X + 8 = 15
7 + 8 = 15. Therefore the statement is true.

 Solution
3x – 4 = 11
3*6 – 4 = 11
18 – 4 = 14 therefore the statement is false.
LINEAR EQUAUTION WITH MIXED OPERATION AND COLLECTION OF LIKE TERMS
When the operation are more than one,

  1. Eliminate the unwanted terms by either adding or subtraction
  2. Then eliminate the co efficient of the unknown by either multiplying or dividing.

 Examples

  1. 4y – 5 = 7

Solution
Add 5 to both sides
4y -5 + 5 = 7 + 5
4y = 12
Divide both sides by the coefficient of the unknown
4y/4 = 12/4
Y = 3

  1. 5x -10 = 15x -60

Solution
5x – 10 = 15x – 60
Collect the like terms
5x -15 x = -60 + 10
-10x = -50
Divide both sides by -10 (Coefficient of the unknown)
-10x/-10 = -50/ -10
X = 5.
Do these
Solve the following equation

  1. 6m + 2 = 20 + 5m
  2. 4c – 8 = 10 – 5c
  3. 5x +5 = 35+ 2x
  4. 56 +7y = 5y + 16

ASSIGNMENT: Page 151 Exercise 14.6 (Nos 1, 5,15,21,31 and 38) and PAGE 153 EX 14.8 NO 2 (a,b,c and d) NO 3 (a,b,c and d)
