Linear Equations in One Variable

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

A linear equation in one variable can be written as ax + b = 0 with a nonzero; the variable's power never exceeds 1.

Show

3x + 7 = 19 qualifies; x² = 9 does not — the square disqualifies it.

Watch for

Linear names the degree, not the length of the equation.

Builds on

  • Nothing — this is a starting point.

Unlocks

  • Nothing yet depends on this.
