Conditional Equation

Example

Classifying $6 + 14(k - 8) = 95$

To classify the linear equation $6 + 14(k - 8) = 95$ , distribute the 14 to expand the expression into $6 + 14k - 112 = 95$ . Combining the constants on the left side reduces it to $14k - 106 = 95$ . Adding 106 to both sides yields $14k = 201$ . Dividing both sides by 14 gives the final variable value of $k = \frac{201}{14}$ . Because this equality relies on a single specific numerical value to be true, it is classified as a conditional equation.
