Slide 23 () / 79 Math Practice This lesson addresses MP1, MP2, MP6 & MP7. Solving Literal Equations dditional Q's to address MP standards: How could you start this problem? (MP1) What operation is given in the problem? (MP1) What do you know about inverse operations that apply to this question? (MP7) Return to Table of ontents Literal Equations Slide 24 / 79 literal equation is an equation in which known quantities are expressed either wholly or in part by using letters. good example is physics course. nother example is, which you may have seen in your which we use when studying geometry. In some cases, it is actually easier to work with literal equations since there are only variables and no numbers. Literal Equations Slide 25 / 79 Our goal is to be able to solve any equation for any variable that appears in it. Let's look at a simple equation first. The variables in this equation are s, d and t. Solving for a variable means having it alone, or isolated. This equation is currently solved for s.
Literal Equations Slide 26 / 79 When solving a literal equation you will be asked to isolate a particular variable in the equation. For example, with the formula: you might be asked to solve for p. This means that p will be on one side of the equation by itself. The new formula will look this: You can transform a formula to describe one quantity in terms of the others by following the same steps as solving an equation. Literal Equations Slide 26 () / 79 When solving a literal equation you will be asked to isolate a particular variable in the equation. For example, with the formula: Work through the steps with students, to show them that the you might be asked to solve for p. same rules apply when moving This means that p will be on one variables side of the as equation numbers. by itself. The new formula will look this: Teacher Notes You can transform a formula to describe [This object one is a quantity pull tab] in terms of the others by following the same steps as solving an equation. Tips for Solving Equations Slide 27 / 79 1. To "undo" a mathematical operation, you must perform the inverse operation. 2. You can do anything you want (except divide by zero) to one side of an equation, as long as you do the same thing to the other. 3. If there is more than one operation going on, you must undo them in the opposite order in which you would do them, the opposite of the "order of operations." 4. You can always switch the left and right sides of an equation.
Tips Explained Slide 28 / 79 1. To "undo" a mathematical operation, you must do the opposite. We learned earlier that for every mathematics operation, there is an inverse operation which undoes it: when you do both operations, you get back to where you started. When the variable for which we are solving is connected to something else by a mathematical operation, we can eliminate that connection by using the inverse of that operation. Tips Explained Slide 29 / 79 2. You can do anything you want (except divide by zero) to one side of an equation, as long as you do the same to the other side. If the two expressions on the opposite sides of the equal sign are equal to begin with, they will continue to be equal if you do the same mathematical operation to both of them. This allows you to use an inverse operation on one side, to undo an operation, as long as you also do it on the other side. You can just never divide by zero (or by something which turns out to be zero) since the result of that is always undefined. Tips Explained 3. If there is more than one operation going on, you must undo them in the opposite order in which you would do them, the opposite of the "order of operations." Slide 30 / 79 The operations which are connected to a variable must be "undone" in the reverse order from the Order of Operations. So, when solving for a variable, you: first have to undo addition/subtraction, then multiplication/division, then exponents/roots, finally parentheses. The order of the steps you take to untie a knot are the reverse of the order used to tie it.
Tips Explained Slide 31 / 79 4. You can always switch the left and right sides of an equation. Once an equation has been solved for a variable, it is typically easier to use if that variable is moved to the left side. Mathematically, this has no effect since the both sides are equal. Examples: Literal Equations Slide 32 / 79 Solve for : Solve for : Examples: Literal Equations Slide 32 () / 79 Solve for : Solve for : *Some students may need to see the division take place in 2 steps; before seeing you can divide by both variables at the same time.
