Concept explainers

Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Answer to Problem 12C

The solution for the equation −2=5−n will be n=7 .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Consider, the equation −2=5−n

Calculation:

From the provided expression find the value of n .

Therefore,

  −2=5−n−2−5=−n−7=−nn=7

The value of n is 7 .

Now, to check the solution, substitute the value of n in the provided expression.

Therefore,

  −2=5−7−2−5=−7−7=−7

As left hand side is equal to right hand side, this signifies that the solution is correct.
