Solving Equations and Formulas Chapter 2 section 6

Solving for a specific Variable Sometimes equations involve multiple variables, or letters that stand for specific things, such as scientific formulas and physics equations

Geometry Formulas: The formula for Circumference of a circle is: C=2πr (2 x pi x radius) We can solve the formula for r: (this means get r by itself!)

What do you think we could do? If the equation is set up as If the equation is set up as C = 2πr, and you are asked to get r by itself, then you need to first ask yourself: What is attached to r? How can you “undo” the operation? Since 2π is “stuck” to r by multiplication, you could get rid of it by division……

Example 1 - Like this! C =2πr Divide both sides by 2π: 2π 2π This leaves you with the following: C = r 2π2π That’s it! That is all there is to it! Now r is by itself, and all of the other “stuff” is on the other side!

Ex. 2 Here’s another one: Try solving the following formula for y: 12x + 3y = 6 12x + 3y = 6

Follow these steps to get y: 12x + 3y = 6 1. Move your x’s to the right side of the equal sign 12x +3y = 6 12x +3y = x -12x - 12x -12x 3y = -12x + 6 3y = -12x x and 6 are not like terms so you can’t combine them.

Steps 2 & 3: Now your equation should look like this! 3y = -12x + 6 3y = -12x What would be the next thing you should do to get the y by itself? (If you said DIVIDE BY 3, THEN YOU ARE RIGHT!) 3Y = -12x Y = -12x Your answer will be y = -4x + 2

Ex. 3 How ‘bout another one?!? Solve 6 – ay = 4(a – b) for the variable in red

Just follow the steps you have been using in other types of equations! 6 – ay = 4(a – b) Distributive property: 6 – ay = 4a – 4b Get the things with an “b” alone on one side of the equal sign 6 – ay = 4a – 4b - 4a - 4a Simplify to get: 6 – ay – 4a = - 4b

Big Finish: 6 – ay – 4a = - 4b – ay – 4a = b -4 Divide both sides by -4 to solve for b

Ex. 4 Try one more : (if your brain is not already fried!) The perimeter of a square field is given by the equation P = 2l + 2w, where P represents the perimeter, l represents the length of the field, and w represents the width of the field. Solve the formula for l.

What should you do first?

Answer: P = 2l + 2w - 2w - 2w P - 2w = 2l 2 2 P - 2w = l 2
