| Equations of condition |
 |
| |
| Study the following equations: |
| |
| a) 4x + 2 = 14 |
| |
| b) x - 7 = 5 - 2x |
| |
| c) 3a - 8 = a + 12 |
| |
| The equation 4x + 2 = 14 is true only when x = 3, |
| |
| Similarly, x - 7 = 5 - 2x is true only when x = 4, and |
| |
| 3a - 8 = a + 23 is true only when a = 10. |
| |
| The two expressions (LHS and RHS) are equal only for a particular value of the variable (x). These equations are called equations of condition. An equation of condition is generally referred to as an equation. |
