Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Exact form:

i = - \frac{134}{133}

i=-\frac{134}{133}

Mixed number form:

i = - 1 \frac{1}{133}

i=-1\frac{1}{133}

Decimal form:

i = - 1.008

i=-1.008

Step-by-step explanation

1. Simplify the expression

$1 i - 134 i - 134 = 0$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$- 133 i - 134 = 0$

2. Group all constants on the right side of the equation

$- 133 i - 134 = 0$

Add $134$ to both sides:

$(- 133 i - 134) + 134 = 0 + 134$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$- 133 i = 0 + 134$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$- 133 i = 134$

3. Isolate the i

$- 133 i = 134$

Divide both sides by -133:

$\frac{(- 133 i)}{- 133} = \frac{134}{- 133}$

Cancel out the negatives:

$\frac{133 i}{133} = \frac{134}{- 133}$

Simplify the fraction:

$i = \frac{134}{- 133}$

Move the negative sign from the denominator to the numerator:

$i = \frac{- 134}{133}$

Why learn this

Linear equations cannot tell you the future, but they can give you a good idea of what to expect so you can plan ahead. How long will it take you to fill your swimming pool? How much money will you earn during summer break? What are the quantities you need for your favorite recipe to make enough for all your friends?

Linear equations explain some of the relationships between what we know and what we want to know and can help us solve a wide range of problems we might encounter in our everyday lives.
