Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  14s -  8 • (s + 6)  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   6s - 48  =   6 • (s - 8) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  6 • (s - 8)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    6   =  0

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

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    s-8 = 0 

 Add  8  to both sides of the equation : 
                      s = 8
