Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     12^2*x-(144)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

 1.1     12 = 22•3

(12)² = (2²•3)² = 2⁴ • 3²

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  ((24•32) • x) -  144  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   144x - 144  =   144 • (x - 1) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  144 • (x - 1)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    144   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    x-1 = 0 

 Add  1  to both sides of the equation : 
                      x = 1
