Solving First-Degree Equations

In this tutorial, Paul demonstrates how to solve first-degree equations using algebra. He provides two examples, explaining each step to isolate the variable X and find its value. The first example involves simplifying an equation to find X as -7/2, while the second example results in X being 5/6. The tutorial concludes with a brief summary and an invitation to subscribe for more content.

What is the main goal when solving first-degree equations?

• To multiply both sides by zero

• To add random numbers to both sides

• To isolate X on one side

• To find the value of Y

In the first example, what operation is performed to both sides of the equation?

• Multiplication by four

• Subtraction of four

• Addition of four

• Division by four

How is the number four rewritten to simplify the equation?

• As 2/4

• As 1/4

• As 8/2

• As 4/1

What is the final value of X in the first example?

• 2/7

• -7/2

• 7/2

• -2/7

What is the initial equation in the second example?

• x / 2/3 = 1/6

• x * 2/3 = 1/6

• x - 2/3 = 1/6

• x + 2/3 = 1/6

What operation is performed to isolate X in the second example?

• Multiplying by 2/3

• Dividing by 2/3

• Subtracting 2/3

• Adding 2/3

How is 2/3 rewritten to have a common denominator with 1/6?

• As 3/6

• As 6/6

• As 2/6

• As 4/6

What is the final value of X in the second example?

• 6/5

• 5/6

• 2/3

• 1/6
