Solve Equation of One Variable

　　To solve a linear equation isolate the variable, that is bring the variable to one side with arithmetic operations.

　　Example: 

　　To solve ax+b=c use the following steps:

　　1.ax+b=c, subtract b from both sides

　　2.ax=c-b, divide both sides by a

　　3.x=(c-b)/a

　　Remember:

　　All linear equations of one variable can be written as ax+b=c and the solution is x=(c-b)/a.
