Art of Problem Solving: Solving Linear Equations Part 2

Lets keep the system working and show learners the three ways to solve linear systems of equations. Each method includes step-by-step instructions to work their way through the problem. The same problem is used for each method to show...

I'm a fan of clearing the denominator, but solvers can also find common denominators and cross multiply to solve the linear equations on the worksheet. Each of the six problems has rational coefficients.

There's more than one way to solve an equation — three, actually. Scholars learn how to solve simple linear equations in one variable using three different methods, which include using balance scales, using decomposition (e.g., turning...

Eliminate the obvious. A series of slides presents algebra classes with step-by-step procedures for solving systems of equations using the elimination method. It provides an introduction to the elimination method for...

Your classes will be cashing in on this lesson! A well-designed lesson describes the steps of solving for the number of two different coin types given specific information. Although some may write equations using two variables, the...

Learners build skills for writing and solving equations with a video that describes the process for writing expressions and then an equation to solve a problem. The problem asks for the number of nickels and dimes needed given a set of...

Create better equation solvers! The video presentation tackles solving an equation with variables on both sides with decimal coefficients. The instructor explains how to multiply by a constant to eliminate the decimals before continuing...

How much is that jingling worth? Given information on the relative number of nickels and quarters, along with their total value, scholars learn to set up and solve a linear equation to find the actual number of each type of coin. A short...

Video tutorial discusses what happens when you multiply both sides of an inequality by the same constant. (Part 2) [7:00]

School subjects connect when your young scholars use math to edit English. Math allows you to convert an entire paragraph into a simple equation or inequality. Examples encourage learners to write expressions, equations, and inequalities...
