Today we're going to look at formulas. Specifically, we'll look at solving a formula for a variable. Since there are multiple variables, we won't get an answer like x = 3. Instead, our goal will be to isolate one variable on one side of the equation, so that we can express it in terms of the others. You'll see how this is done in the video below:
I have recorded several videos of worked-out example problems, which you can access at the link below. Once you start to get the hang of the problems, try them out before you watch the video to see if you're solving them correctly. And if you're not, compare your steps to those in the video to learn from your mistakes. This is a great opportunity for you to make sure you're doing each step correctly and mastering these skills!
Finally, remember to complete the homework assignment titled "Formulas" which is available on WebAssign and due this Friday evening at 11:59pm (PT).
