This demo discusses how to set up two equations to solve the situation described, and then choose the best method to use to solve for each of the variables.
|
|
This shows the method of using the point-slope form to write the equation, then solving that form for y to get y = mx + b.
|
|
The informaton given here can be entered directly into the y = mx + b or slope-intercept form. Then the y-intercept is used as a starting point where you apply rise over run to the given slope to…

|
This one demonstrates how to eliminate the rational parts of the equation as usual, then gather the terms with the chosen variable on one side of the equal sign so that it can be factored to one…

|
Describes how to deal with denominators that are simply opposite in sign when adding or subtracting fractional expressions.
|
|
A quick run through the use of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 to find an unknown side of a right tirangle if we know the other two sides.
|
|
Demonstrates what happens when the F.O.I.L. method is applied to multiply two binomails of the form (a + b) (a - b). It's special circumstance that allows a short cut.

Looks at the three types of graphs that can occur with a system of two linear equaltions in two variables.
|
|
This demonstrates testing possible answers to a system of two equations to see whether they are truly answers or not. Note that each answer has to work for both equations, but if it doesn't…

Shows how thits form is simply the same as y = mx + b, and then writes the slope and y-intercpt down. It ends with using these to graph the line of points that satisfy this function.
|
