Solve the equation, and check your solution. See Examples.
EXAMPLE Combining Like Terms When Solving
Solve 3t – 12 + t + 2 = 5 + 3t + 2.
The check results in a true statement, so the solution set is {17}.
Example Using the Distributive Property When Solving
Solve 3(2 + 5x) − (1 + 14x) = 6
Check by substituting 1 for x in the original equation. The solution set is {1}.
5.2q − 4.6 − 7.1q = −0.9q − 4.6
We need at least 10 more requests to produce the solution.
