WORK IT OUT OK? ITS NOT THAT HARDDDDDDDD
Read all this 4 a surprise Solve for x Solve for x is all related to finding the value of x in an equation of one variable that is x or with different variables like finding x in terms of y. When we find the value of x and substitute it in the equation, we should get L.H.S = R.H.S. What Does Solve for x Mean? Solve for x means finding the value of x for which the equation holds true. i.e when we find the value of x and substitute in the equation, we should get L.H.S = R.H.S If I ask you to solve the equation 'x + 1 = 2' that would mean finding some value for x that satisfies the equation. Do you think x = 1 is the solution to this equation? Substitute it in the equation and see. 1 + 1 = 2 2 = 2 L.H.S = R.H.S That’s what solving for x is all about. How Do You Solve for x? To solve for x, bring the variable to one side, and bring all the remaining values to the other side by applying arithmetic operations on both sides of the equation. Simplify the values to find the result. Let’s start with a simple equation as, x + 2 = 7 How do you get x by itself? Subtract 2 from both sides ⇒ x + 2 - 2 = 7 - 2 ⇒ x = 5 Now, check the answer, x = 5 by substituting it back into the equation. We get 5 + 2= 7. L.H.S = R.H.S Solve for x in the Triangle Solve for x" the unknown side or angle in triangles we can use properties of triangle or the Pythagorean theorem. Let us understand solve for x in a triangle with the help of an example. △ ABC is right-angled at B with two of its legs measuring 7 units and 24 units. Find the hypotenuse x. Just Kidding! xD
