An inequation is said to be linear if each term of the algebraic expression (or expressions) of the inequation contains first degree variables (not the product of variables..

A Linear equation is a first degree algebraic expression with one,two or more variables equated to a constant. Graphically a linear equation with one or two variables is a straight line whereas one with three variable represents a plane. A simple linear equation is a statement of equ..

Simultaneous Equations - A linear equations in two variables x and y is of the form ax + by + c = 0 ( ) where a, b, c are real numbers. To find a solution for this equation, we can assign any value for one of the variables and find the value of the other variable such that the two sides of the equa..

An equation is an equality connecting some unknowns. The unknowns are represented by "letters" and are called "the variables". If the equation has only one unknown, it is called "an equal in one variable". The word "Linear" means "of degree one". Hence if only a single variable with degree one oc..

ax + b = 0 is a linear equation in one variable . The graph of x = a is a line parallel to y-axis at x=a. The graph of y=b is a line parallel to x-axis at y = ..

Solve the Systems of linear equations by Method of Elimination (by Addition): 3x - 4y = 20 (i) 5x + 6y = 8 (ii..

In algebra we come across certain products very frequently. For e.g., (a + b) 2 , (a + b) 3 (a + b + c) 2 etc. These are nothing but products of binomials or trinomials. We derive the formulae for these products and apply them whenever necessary. These expansions help us to avoid elab..

Finding the solution by the method of substitution. Finding the solution by the method of substitution. (i) Coefficients of one of the variables (say x) in the two equations are made equal, by multiplying them with suitable factors. (ii) By addition or subtraction, this variable (x) is elimina..
