The process of shifting any constant or variable in an equation from one side to other is ___________(a) assosiativity(b) distributivity(c) commutativity(d) transpositionThe question was posed to me in a national level competition.The above asked question is from Applications of Linear Equation (Just Solving the Equations) topic in chapter Linear Equations in One Variable of Mathematics – Class 8

Answer»

Right answer is (d) transposition

To explain I would SAY: This is the property used while we solve equations. In this property when we TAKE a component of equation from LHS to RHS or VICE versa the signs change, the change of signs is in order to BALANCE the equation.
