How to solve “linear equations in disguise”?

“Linear equations in disguise” refer to equations that don’t initially appear to be linear but can be manipulated into a linear form. These equations might involve fractions, products, or other operations, but after simplification, they reveal their linear nature.

Steps to Solve Linear Equations in Disguise

1. Simplify the Equation:

• Remove any fractions by multiplying both sides by the least common denominator (LCD).
• Distribute any factors across parentheses.
• Combine like terms.

2. Isolate the Variable:
