Here's a detailed breakdown for question 2.
2. Bulatkan persamaan linear dalam satu pemboleh ubah pada ruang jawapan.
Circle the linear equations in one variable in the answer space.
A linear equation in one variable must meet two criteria:
- It contains only one type of variable.
- The highest power of that variable is 1.
Let's check each expression:
- 10−7x=−0.5: This has one variable (x) with a power of 1. ✅
- 5+32w=1: This has one variable (w) with a power of 1. ✅
- 2r1−3=r: This can be written as 21r−1−3=r. Since r has a power of −1, it is not linear. ❌
- 4g+g2=2: This has one variable (g), but the highest power is 2 (g2), so it is not linear. ❌
- y+4=x: This has two different variables (y and x), so it is not a linear equation in one variable. ❌
- 6+4b=2: This has one variable (b) with a power of 1. ✅
- 1−b2=b: This has one variable (b), but the highest power is 2 (b2), so it is not linear. ❌
- 2t−3=s: This has two different variables (t and s), so it is not a linear equation in one variable. ❌
- 4h−2=−3h: This has one variable (h) with a power of 1. ✅
- 4−vw=6: This has two different variables (v and w) and they are multiplied (vw), which means it is not linear. ❌
The linear equations in one variable to be circled are:
- 10−7x=−0.5
- 5+32w=1
- 6+4b=2
- 4h−2=−3h
