Question

The value of x which satisfies the equation $ax+b=0,a\ne 0$ is known as _____.

• A. solution of the equation
• B. degree of the equation
• C. inverse of the equation
• D. order of the equation

Answer 1

The correct option is A solution of the equation

The value of x which satisfies the equation $ax+b=0$, $a\ne 0$ is known as the solution of the equation.

For example, $x=-1$ satisfies $3x+3=0$. Therefore, $x=-1$ is the solution of the equation.
