Question

Give the first step you will use to separate the variable, and then solve the equation: 4x = 25.

Answer 1

Answer: The first step is to transpose 4 to the R.H.S

Explanation:

Transpose means to move

4x = 25

( 4 is under multiplication, which changes to division on the other side )

x = 25/4

( Simplify )

x = 6 1/4
