Solving Linear and Literal Equations

Solve for T, B = T - Lc

• T = BLc

• T = B - Lc

• T = B + Lc

S = 3F - 24  Solve for F

• F = (S + 24)/3

• F = S/3 + 24

• F = 3S + 24

• F = 3(S + 24)

8x + 4y= 16 for y

• y = -8x + 16

• y = 2x -4

• y = -2x + 4

• y = -8x + 12

Solve for s:
2s = 6t + 8w

• s = 12t + 16w

• s = 6t + 4w

• s = 3t - 4w

• s = 3t + 4w

• Absolute values

• Opposite operations used in isolating a variable

• Operations used for only inequalities

• Unknown quantity represented by a letter or symbol
