What is Linear equation
Important things to remember :
1) Real numbers a and b (where a is not equal to zero) and x is a variable, So the equation ax + b = 0 is called one variable linear equation.
2) The left hand side of the equation ax + b = 0 is a linear polynomial and there is only one variable in that polynomial.
3) If a given equation converts to an equation of the form ax + b = 0, then it is said to be a linear equation in one variable.
4)The exponent of the x variable in the equation is one. These equations are like the general form of the linear equation ax + b = 0. So they are linear equations.
Linear equation example :
1) 5x - 12 = 0
2) 7x + 6 = 9x - 4
3) x + 9 = 4x.

Solve the equation :
1) The number by which both sides of the equation are equal in value. That number is said to satisfy the equation.
2) The number that satisfies the equation is called the solution of the equation.
3) The set of solutions of an equation is the set of solutions of that equation.

Questions with answer :
1) 2x = 18 then x =?
Ans. :
2x = 18
x = 18 / 2
therefore, x = 9.

2) 3x + 7 = 22 then x = ?
Ans. :
3x + 7 = 22
3x = 22 - 7
3x = 15
x = 15 / 3
therefore, x = 5.

3) x + 9 = 4x
Ans. :
x + 9 = 4x
9 = 4x - x
9 = 3x
x = 9 / 3
therefore , x = 3.

4) y - 4 = 3y - 10
Ans. :
10 - 4 = 3y - y
6 = 2y
y = 6 / 2
y = 3
therefore, y = 3.

5) ( 5x / 2 ) + 3 = 21 / 2
Ans. :
( 5x / 2 ) + 3 = 21 / 2
both sides multiples by 2, we get
5x + 6 = 21
5x = 21 - 6
5x = 15
x = 15 / 5
x = 3
therefore, x = 3.

6) ( y - 1 ) / 5 = y / 3
Ans. :
( y - 1 ) / 5 = y / 3
3 ( y - 1 ) = 5y
3y - 3 = 5y
3y - 5y = 3
- 2y  = 3
y = -3 / 2
therefore, y = - 3 / 2.

Series Order tricks : A category of three, four or some numbers is given in the competitive examination. There is a mutual relationship among these numbers. The same relationship has to be understand and the same basis is to be increased further. Examples : 1) What will be the next number in the following series. 3, 10, 31, 94, ----- Ans. : Each terms is increasing by : ( n × 3 ) + 1. Therefore, ( 3 × 3 ) + 1 = 10 ( 10 × 3 ) + 1 = 31 ( 31 × 3 ) + 1 = 94 ( 94 × 3 ) + 1 = 283 Therefore, next number : 283. 2) Find the next order in the category. 1, 4, 9, 16, ---- Ans. : Each term is a squares of consecutive numbers. therefore, 5 × 5 = 25. therefore, next number = 25. Examples : Q. What will be the next number in the following series .  1) 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, ---- Ans. : The difference in each term is increasing in the form of consecutive numbers. that is 3 + 3 = 6. 06 + 4 = 10. 10 + 5 = 15. 15 + 6 = 21. 21 + 7 = 28.

Quartiles : Quartile Definition : " All data divided four equal parts is known as Quartile. " It is clear that the items which divided the data into four equal parts lie at the quarter, half and three quarters, of the way down the arrangement. Quartile denoted by Q1 means first quartile, Q2 means second quartile, Q3 means third quartile respectively. Clearly the second quartile is the Median item. Mean         Median          Mode Quartile Formulas : For Individual items and Discrete Distribution : 1) First Quartile = Q1 = Size of [ ( N + 1 ) / 4 ]th item. 2) Third Quartile = Q3 =  Size of 3 × [ ( N + 1 ) / 4 ]th item For Continues Distribution : 1)  First Quartile = Q1 = Size of [ N / 4 ]th item. 2) Third Quartile= Q3 =Size of 3 × [ N / 4 ] th item Quartiles Examples : Computation of Quartiles for Individual Data : 1) Calculate the first, second and third quartile from the following values weights in kg of a group of students. 50, 51

Decile : Decile Definition : " All data divided Ten equal parts is known as Decile. " It is clear that the items which divided the data into ten equal parts lie at the D1, D2, ...., D10 of the way down the arrangement. Decile denoted by D1 means first decile, D2 means second decile, and so on D10 means tenth decile respectively.               Mean          Median         Quartiles Decile Formulas : For Individual items and Discrete Distribution : 1) First Decile = D1 = Size of [ ( N + 1 ) / 10 ]th item. 2) Second Decile = D2 =  Size of 2 × [ ( N + 1 ) / 10 ]th item. 3) Third Decile = D3 = Size of 3 × [ ( N + 1 ) / 10 ] th item. and so on, 10) Tenth Decile = D10 = Size of  ( N + 1 ) th item. For Continues Distribution : 1) First Decile = D1 = Size of [ N / 10 ]th item. 2) Second Decile = D2 = Size of 2 × [ N / 10] th item and so on, 10) Tenth Decile = D10 = Size N th item.
