Why do you isolate the variable on one side the the equation when solving a linear equation?

Isolating a single variable in terms of the rest of the equation provides a solution to that variable. That is, if you know the equation that equals the variable, then you can figure out its value.

What is 306g is equal too 22.5?
It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.
Describe the procedure used to solve an equation for a variable?
It very much depends on the equation. The procedure for solving an equation with just one variable is so very different from the procedure for finding solutions to non-linear equations in several variables.
How do you figure out if an equation is a linear equation?
An equation is linear if the highest power of the unknown in the equation is 1for example an equation with just a variable to the power one such as x, y and so on is linear but one with x2, y2 and above is not linear
How many answers does a linear equation in one variable have?
one
What is the highest exponent of the leading variable in a linear equation?
1
For systems in which there is no linear equation you can isolate and substitute a variable that is what in both equations?
squared
How does solving a literal equation differ from solving a linear equation?
Because linear equations are based on algebra equal to each other whereas literal equations are based on solving for one variable.
What does it mean when the result of solving a linear equation is x equals 0?
Solving a one variable linear equation involves getting the variable on one side of the equals sign by itself. To do this one uses the properties of numbers.

Can a linear expression have a squared variable?
No, if there is a sqaured variable, the equation is not linear.
How do you find for the zero of a linear function?
If it is a linear function, it is quite easy to solve the equation explicitly, using standard methods of equation-solving. For example, if you have "y" as a function of "x", you would have to solve the variable for "x".
Describe the procedure used to solve an equation for a variable?
It very much depends on the equation. The procedure for solving an equation with just one variable is so very different from the procedure for finding solutions to non-linear equations in several variables.
What is an equation that is not true for any value of a variable?
linear equation in one variable
What are the zeros of a linear equation?
A linear equation can have only one zero and that is the value of the variable for which the equation is true.
Can a linear equation have a variable to the first power?
Any variable in a linear equation is to the first power.The exponent is normally not written.
Why is the exponent of a variable a determining factor in whether an equation is linear?
Because that is how a linear equation is defined!
