What is an Equation

Equation ? An equation in math is a statement that shows the


equality of two expressions. These expressions are
connected by an equals sign (=).

Some key points :-


An equation in math is like a balance scale: it
shows two things (expressions) being equal.
The equals sign (=) sits in the middle,
indicating that the value on the left side must
match the value on the right side. Equations
often have unknown values represented by
letters (variables), and solving an equation
involves figuring out what that unknown value
needs to be for the balance to hold true.
Variable :-
What is an In mathematics, a variable is a symbol, usually a
letter, that represents an unknown quantity or a value

Variable ? that can change. It acts like a placeholder, allowing us


to write general rules and solve problems without
having specific numbers in mind.

Example :-
Here's an example to illustrate these points:
Imagine you're calculating the cost of buying
apples. Let:

a be the price of one apple (unknown quantity)


n be the number of apples you buy (also
unknown)
The total cost (C) can be expressed as an
equation:
C=axn
Coefficient :-
What is an In mathematics, a coefficient is a numerical factor that
multiplies a variable (or sometimes a constant) in a

Coefficient ? term of an expression, polynomial, or series. It tells you


how much of that variable is included in the term.

Example :-
Examples:
In the term 3x, the coefficient is 3. It tells you
there are 3 "x"s in this term.
In the term -2y^2, the coefficient is -2. It
multiplies the variable y which is squared
(y^2).
A constant term (a number by itself) can be
thought of as having a coefficient of 1 (even
though it's not explicitly written). For
example, in 5 + x, the coefficient of the
constant term 5 is understood to be 1.
Equation in one variable

What is Equation in one variable ?

An equation in one variable is a mathematical statement that shows the


equality between two expressions, where one of those expressions contains
only one unknown variable. This unknown variable is usually represented by a
letter like x, y, or a.
Equation in one variable
Here's a breakdown of the key points:

One Variable: The equation involves only one unknown quantity. This
unknown quantity is represented by a variable.
Equality: The equation shows that two expressions are equal. These
expressions can involve numbers, constants, and mathematical
operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc.).
Examples:
2x + 5 = 11 (Here, x is the unknown variable)
3y - 7 = 0 (Here, y is the unknown variable)
a^2 - 4 = 0 (Here, a is the unknown variable, though the equation is
written with an exponent)
Equation in one variable
How to solve them :-

Addition/Subtraction: If the variable is added or subtracted with a


number, do the opposite on both sides to cancel it out.
Example: 2x + 5 = 11 becomes 2x = 11 - 5 (subtract 5 from both sides).

Multiplication/Division: If the variable is multiplied or divided by a


number, do the opposite on both sides to isolate it.
Example: 3x = 12 becomes x = 12 / 3 (divide both sides by 3).

Explanation: Let the two numbers be 2x and 5x since they are in the ratio of 2:5.
The difference between 5x and 2x = 66
5x – 2x = 66
3x = 66
x = 22
Hence, 2x = 2(22) = 44 and 5x = 5(22) = 110.
